Apart from being a hot research topic itself, large AI models have also assisted research in different fields. In the field of Biology, the AlphaFold, an AI model developed by google DeepMind, has allowed biologists to predict the 3-dimensional structure of proteins based purely off their amino acid sequences. Using AI models, they have been able to provide an accurate solution to what has been a 50-year-old problem.
