We updated our survey of transfer learning with protein language models. Now it includes ESM C and AMPLIFY in addition to ESM-2 and ESMv. Quick conclusion: ESM C 600M is the model to use. But note reproducibility issues in next cast. 1/2 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I made an interactive worksheet that provides a basic introduction to the R language. Meant for people that may be familiar with Python or other languages and want to understand some of the core concepts of how R works. wilkelab.org/SDS366/works... This is part of my class on data visualization with R.

Now published: We trained a chemical language model that works with both small molecules and peptides. Ideal for making predictions on peptides with non-standard amino acids or other chemical modifications. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....

Get ready for Gen-AI-uary 2025, the AI version of this popular generative artists activity for the first month of each year. The prompts are available. Do one per day. Do them with AI. Post them in /ai-art.
#GENUARY2025 PROMPTS ARE READY!! GENUARY is an artificially generated month of time where we build code that makes beautiful things. It’s happening during the month of January 2025, and everybody is invited! https://GENUARY.ART #generative #genartclub

Are your students above average, well above average, outstanding, or truly exceptional? And how do they compare to the current students at MIT?

Oh wow, didn't expect this. Was there any news or any other identifiable catalyst?

AI will replace programmers long before it replaces biologists. Excellent interview with the CEO of Anthropic. One of the few tech people who can actually competently talk about biology. Must watch if you're wondering how AI will shape our future. Don't be put off by the 5 hours. It's actually three interviews in on...

I'd like to file a complaint. People told me that definitely Eth was cooked and so I thought I had more time to accumulate and now this. Can devs do something?

AI is not a replacement for competent software developers. Listen to this (excellent) interview with the Cursor team. If somebody knows about AI-generated code it's them. It's obvious there is a huge opportunity for AI-assisted coding, but emphasis is on "assisted." The AI still needs a lot of hand-holding and human s...

We've turned on public mode for /ai-art. So for now everybody can cast, official channel members get priority. Channel rules still apply.
Some general rules for /ai-art: 1. This is a channel for artists. Just because you made an image with AI doesn't mean it's art. Put some real effort and intent into your work. The mods have seen thousands of low-effort pieces and are happy to moderate accounts that post them. 2. Watch your casting cadence. If you're ma
