AI protein-prediction tool AlphaFold3 is now open source

AlphaFold3 is open at last. Six months after Google DeepMind controversially withheld code from a paper describing the protein-structure prediction model, scientists can now download the software code and use the artificial intelligence (AI) tool for non-commercial applications, the London-based company announced on 11 November.

When AlphaFold3 was first published the code wasn't publicly available (which is pretty bad for computational research), so this is good news that they finally released the code repository.

The GitHub repository: https://github.com/google-deepmind/alphafold3

Note that to request access one needs to sign a form & has to represent a non-commercial entity. If you receive access then allegedly you can easily run AlphaFold3 via docker
