While I (loosely) understand the concept of using a custom (foundational?) machine-learning model to explore some problem-space and devise solutions, I don't understand why it says they used "AI" to "visualize" a structure. A layperson is going to think they simply asked ChatGPT to solve the problem for them and it just worked and now OpenAI owns the cure for Alzheimer's.
...I ask because bio/chem visualization and simulation was a solved problem back in the 1980s (...back when bad TV shows used renders of spinning organic-chemistry hexagons on the protagonist's computer as a visual-metaphore for doing science!).
