DeepMind announced the latest version of their artificial intelligence (AI) AlphaFold with the ability to predict molecular structures more accurately. AlphaFold 3 now predicts the structure and interactions of all living molecules. For the prediction of proteins and some other types of molecules. AlphaFold 3 shows an increase in prediction accuracy of up to 50% compared to other models currently in use.
AlphaFold 3 can be used to improve the understanding of the world of biology and the discovery of drugs in the future. Isomorphic Labs, which is also a subsidiary of Alphabet, has begun collaboration with several pharmaceutical companies to use AlphaFold 3 to develop new treatments.
This is another contribution of DeepMind to the world of medical science. Two years ago AlphaFold published a list of 200 million protein structures that can exist in the world also for the purpose of progress in producing new drugs and medicines.
