Unsupervised Learnings of Protein Large Language Models for Make Benefit Glorious Sector of Biotech

Abstract

Protein language models were nurtured by unlikely parents---corporations. Now that they have come of age, they have been forced to strike out on their own. A common pitfall that biotechnology platforms make is to attempt to solve as many problems, all at once, while in reality solving none. Whether these fledgling protein LLM companies will learn from the mistakes of their industry predecessors remains to be seen.
