DESCRIPTION:The past decade has seen incredible advances in the field of A
 rtificial Intelligence (AI). DeepMind has been in the vanguard of many of 
 these big breakthroughs\, pioneering the development of self-learning syst
 ems like AlphaGo\, the first program to beat the world champion at the com
 plex game of Go. Games have proven to be a great training ground for devel
 oping and testing AI algorithms\, but the aim at DeepMind has always been 
 to build general learning systems ultimately capable of solving important 
 problems in the real world. Excitingly\, I believe we are on the cusp of a
  new era in science with AI poised to be a powerful tool for accelerating 
 scientific discovery itself. We recently demonstrated this potential with 
 our AlphaFold system\, a solution to the 50-year grand challenge of protei
 n structure prediction\, culminating in the release of the most accurate a
 nd complete picture of the human proteome.
