GenCast is a diffusion model, but it is not the "new" one like I said. Apparently there is another one. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2506.10772

It's official too. It's on: https://www.youtube.com/@googledeepmind

Moderators: Please change the link; feels kind of unethical to bait someone into paying for this now.

Like 99.99% probability, sure. Greg's previous big feature was on Deepmind's AlphaGo, three years after its Google acquisition.

They do a great job capturing the "Move 37" moment: https://youtu.be/WXuK6gekU1Y?t=2993

If you watch on there's a bit where they decide to give away all the protein folding results for free when they could have charged (https://youtu.be/d95J8yzvjbQ?t=4497). Not everything is exploitation rather than the betterment of mankind.

Is the multimodal agent really as good as shown in the documentary? If so, why did Google need to stage parts of the demo at Google I/O?

Science in general tends to be subsidised and given away because as basic understanding of the world is hard to monopolise. I'm not sure how Einstein would have done a general relativity startup.

That said Deepmind are doing a spin-off making drugs https://www.isomorphiclabs.com/

AI for science is much bigger than RL or Generative AI in science.

There are several classes of models Like operator learning, physics informed neural networks, Fourier operators

That perform magnificently well and have killer applications in various industrial settings

Do read the attached paper if you're curious about AI in science
