These threads are always the same: lots of comments about protein folding, how amazing DeepMind is, how AlphaFold is a success story, how it has flipped an entire field on it's head, etc.
I don't think that's necessarily so - there is a lot of justified scepticism about the wilder claims of ML in this forum; it is in fact quite difficult at times to know as an outsider to the field in question how kneejerk it is.
