I'm visiting the UK presently. It prompted to verify agr in order to allow access to adult content. For me it's not an issue as that isn't what I access here. But MS I believe is requiring it for all content?

Oxford is so beautiful. The way things are built into the beautiful local environment just puts you at peace. The people are friendly, worldly, and diverse. Definitely miss it. Very glad to be back briefly to visit colleagues and friends. We can learn so much about ways to live by traveling...

Oh no, Tarrifs have followed me!
In all seriousness, if we used words like Tarrifs in their literal sense like the Brits do.maybe people would grasp the whole import tarrif situation more clearly.

I mean my (glib) point was that it did not parse the question properly.
My real issue is the idea that these tools, o3 or o4, do not hallucinate is incorrect. I'd say someone positioned as an expert on misinformation and AI for critical thinking doing so for everyday people is subethical.

Ran boltz-2 on Rowan's servers for a known ligand with reasonable affinity and activity at a GPCR. Got a negative pIC50. An issue with Rowan?

I don't disagree, but it would be good to know how any LLM, etc. may compete with curated databases of compound and activity relationships (many of which are woefully incorrectly annotated or the assay done to measure the activity is just completely inappropriate).

Minor thing, but my main thesis publication (TRUPATH) has now surpassed all of my other publications in terms of citation count. Humbled at the number of people who read it and (hopefully) found it useful.
