Pushmeet Kohli and Sal Candido discuss why AlphaFold did not solve protein folding

Google DeepMind's Pushmeet Kohli and Biohub's Sal Candido discuss in a panel moderated by Brandon Anderson whether scaling compute and data is enough for AI-driven biology.

The conversation covers scaling laws in biological data, why protein structure prediction is not solved, and the limits of static structure prediction. The panel also addresses how the protein language models may hold scientific knowledge not yet unlocked.
