Ibrahim: DeepMind's GNoME expanded known stable crystals from 40,000 to 400,000+
“The alpha genome, the alpha gnome, the one that you've just mentioned, our material science, was really exciting because we basically went from 40,000 known stable crystals to 400,000 plus. That are now being tested with research, in research and in labs.”
