So that kind of planning and prediction step is the key to how AI affects all these industries.

So ChatGPT is planning and prediction of what is the next token or let's use word.

What's the next word that would probably go in this sentence?

You know, the roses are red.

I think it's going to be red because I've seen roses are red so many times that my prediction score very confidently would say the next word in the roses are is red.

Okay, great.

How do self-driving cars work?

Same thing.

If I see a car there, my prediction is it's going to be here in the next one second.

So therefore, I need to do a new action.

The same thing applies to science and curing all these diseases, which is you need to know what a protein structure looks like.

Based on the shape of the protein structure, if you can predict the protein structure, then it's not so hard to figure out what should you attach to it to either like destroy that protein or soup it up and make it more strong or whatever, right?

You know where to bind on the protein.

Okay, so I didn't know about this thing, but it's called CASP.

So CASP is this competition that had been going on for years.

And it's basically the Olympics of protein folding.

So if you do like a sequence, you're like amino acids.

It's always got this amino acid, this amino acid, this amino acid.

You get this 10 amino acids.

Cool.
