Uh but I also want to say that you know it's still relatively early stages, right?
I think
In the near future, we want to basically provide like a V2 of this virtual app that will be much easier for everybody to use, especially people like scientists from different domains who might not be familiar even with coding or how to use these how to interact with these language models.
Right now it's still a little bit bespoke because it's sort of like the first iteration and the first case study that we did, which is solving this uh nanobody.
design for SARS CoV 2, but we do want to make it much more generalizable and easier to use in the future with some more like interactive interfaces.
And in terms of the sort of the surprisingness of this,
Yeah, so I think
Compared to AlphaGo, there's some interesting similarities and also some interesting differences, right?
Like here, in some sense, it's not as surprising, perhaps, because the agents does provide like an explanation.
In their one of the early group meetings, they said, okay, so yeah, so like antibodies are known to be they're smaller and they're easier to predict and easier to design.
Right.
So that's something actually something that's relatively easy for us to understand, right?
And you know, I'm not a
an expert in nanobodies, but uh I looked at that and I said, okay, that seems like a reasonable decision.
So that's why we didn't push back on that.
Whereas maybe some of the moves made by AlphaGo would have been
difficult to explain, even to experts.
On the other hand, you could say that that this decision made by the agents for nanobodies in some in some sense is also
could be harder, right?
In that with games like AlphaFold or like AlphaGo or the other games, it's a bit more controlled settings, right?
