Congratulations to @demishassabis, John Jumper, and David Baker who will be awarded the Wiley Foundation 20th annual Wiley Prize in Biomedical Sciences on April 1: dpmd.ai/Wiley-Prize 🧵 1/7
Demis and John accept the award on behalf of the @DeepMind team who worked on #AlphaFold, which was recognised as a solution to the “protein folding problem” at CASP14 in Nov 2020: dpmd.ai/casp14_blog 2/7
From the start, we committed to giving broad access to our work and, in July 2021, we published our methods in @Nature along with the open source code.
A week later, we launched the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database, in partnership with @emblebi - more than doubling the number of high-accuracy human protein structures available. Over 400,000 researchers have already used it: dpmd.ai/alphafolddb 4/7
In October 2021 we launched AlphaFold-Multimer, which properly accounts for multi-chain proteins (complexes): dpmd.ai/alphafold-mult… 5/7
And in January 2022 we added 27 new proteomes (190k+ proteins) to the database, 17 of which represent Neglected Tropical Diseases that continue to devastate the lives of more than 1 billion people globally: dpmd.ai/NTD 6/7
A huge congratulations to the whole team who made this breakthrough happen! Check out our AlphaFold timeline for further info: dpmd.ai/AFtimeline 7/7

Our video generation model Veo gives more control over the camera. 📹
You can prompt for:
🔘 Extreme close up
🔘 Slow-motion crane shots
🔘 Timelapses
And more. 🧵
✍️ Prompt: “Timelapse of the northern lights dancing across the Arctic sky, stars twinkling, snow-covered landscape.”
✍️ Prompt: “A panning shot of a waterfall cascading down a rocky cliff, lush greenery surrounding the falls, mist rising from the crashing water.”
✍️ Prompt: “A fast-tracking shot down an suburban residential street lined with trees. Daytime with a clear blue sky. Saturated colors, high contrast.”
We're announcing TacticAI: an AI assistant capable of offering insights to football experts on corner kicks. ⚽
Developed with @LFC, it can help teams sample alternative player setups to evaluate possible outcomes, and achieves state-of-the-art results. 🧵 dpmd.ai/49PGq1b
📊 Corner kicks can be challenging for AI to model due to the limited availability of data - @premierleague matches only average about 10 a game.
TacticAI uses a geometric deep learning approach to tackle this problem. → dpmd.ai/43p5Gcc
🔍 Analysts need to rewatch many game replays to study rival teams and design future tactics.
TacticAI can help by automatically computing numerical representations of players, allowing them to efficiently look up relevant past routines. ↓ dpmd.ai/49PGq1b
Introducing Gemini 1.5: our next-generation model with dramatically enhanced performance. It also achieves a breakthrough in long-context understanding.
The first release is 1.5 Pro, capable of processing up to 1 million tokens of information. 🧵 dpmd.ai/3SEbw4p
Gemini 1.5 was designed using a new Mixture–of-Experts (MoE) architecture, making it much more efficient to train and serve.
When tested on a set of text, code, image, audio and video evaluations, 1.5 Pro outperforms 1.0 Pro on 87% of benchmarks used for developing our LLMs.
Through a series of machine learning innovations, Gemini 1.5 Pro now has the longest context window of any large-scale foundation model yet.
The bigger the context window, the more information it can take in from a prompt — making its output more consistent, relevant and useful.
