[AI summary] This article explores the application of natural language processing (NLP) techniques, particularly self-supervised learning, to the study of proteins. It discusses the challenges of protein structure prediction, the potential of using large unlabeled protein sequence datasets, and introduces TAPE, a benchmarking framework for evaluating protein representations. The article highlights the importance of understanding protein structure and function, the limitations of traditional methods, and the promise of leveraging self-supervised learning to improve protein prediction tasks. It also touches on the practical implications of these advancements, such as protein engineering and drug discovery. |

Scott Aaronson, a well-known MIT computer scientist, has offered 100000$ to the person that convinces him (and in the same time the entire physics community) that scaleable quantum computing is impossible in the physical world. Although several principles of quantum computation like the implementation of Shor's algorithm have already been prooven multiple qubit operations and... |
