But in this case AlphaFold is only marginally better than other algorithms. Since we are comparing computer algorithms (and not a human to an algorithm), it'd be like saying Usain Bolt "solved" the 100m dash when he set a new world record. Is it solved though, without knowing how fast those other algorithms are advancing?
No itβs not. AlphaFold is a huge advancement on all the other solutions. Solutions that were based on the already massive improvement that DeepMind brought in the previous edition.
