nobel committee went full on ai-brained this year, nobel prize in chemistry is for alphafold. they had three good years in a row, had to do something stupid ig
lol that's gonna age like milk
still better than peace prize for kissinger

half goes to david baker, you might remember him from rosetta@home thing. the other two people are from google deepmind
