“Now we can treat this as a search engine. Like we search the internet, we now search the space of all possible molecules, not just the ones that people have made, or that they're in the universe, but all of them.”
Çubuk: Optimization of decades-old materials impedes commercialization of new discoveries

For someone to come up and say, oh, I discovered a completely differe…”
