They've been going after the Healthcare vertical heavily for the last decade, and Benioff has donated like half a billion to hospitals and research from his own wallet.

I buy every dip in Salesforce because they keep delivering in some many interesting ways. The news of the co-CEO and all their product and department leads leaving dropped their stock in Q4. It's up 25% since then.

ARKK is also up since then.

Who cares if the research is actually good?

>Deep-learning language models have shown promise in various biotechnological applications, including protein design and engineering. Here we describe ProGen, a language model that can generate protein sequences with a predictable function across large protein families, akin to generating grammatically and semantically correct natural language sentences on diverse topics. The model was trained on 280 million protein sequences from >19,000 families and is augmented with control tags specifying protein properties. ProGen can be further fine-tuned to curated sequences and tags to improve controllable generation performance of proteins from families with sufficient homologous samples. Artificial proteins fine-tuned to five distinct lysozyme families showed similar catalytic efficiencies as natural lysozymes, with sequence identity to natural proteins as low as 31.4%. ProGen is readily adapted to diverse protein families, as we demonstrate with chorismate mutase and malate dehydrogenase.

At what point do we stop calling it a language model?

I think it's fair to call RNA a language.

At the point where it stops being a P(w|h) estimator.
