🧬 Google DeepMind reveals ‘AlphaProteo’

The Rundown: Google DeepMind just unveiled AlphaProteo, a groundbreaking AI system that designs custom proteins to bind with specific molecular targets, potentially turbocharging drug discovery and cancer research.

The details:

• AlphaProteo creates proteins that stick to specific targets like a biological lock and key, which is 3 to 300 times better at creating strong-binding proteins than current methods.

• The AI successfully designed binders for 7 out of 8 diverse targets, including cancer-related proteins.

• Independent tests showed some AlphaProteo designs could stop SARS-CoV-2 (Covid) from infecting cells and slash years of lab work down to days or weeks.

Why it matters: AlphaProteo could help us block viruses, fight cancer, and treat diseases in new ways using more targeted treatment approaches that could have far less side effects. This could dramatically accelerate drug discovery, potentially saving billions in R&D costs and bring life-saving treatments to patients faster.

REPLIT

💻 New AI agent builds apps from prompts

The Rundown: Replit just launched an AI-powered tool called Replit Agent that can create software applications based on simple text descriptions, making coding more accessible to people of all skill levels.

The details:

• Users can describe the app they want to build in natural language, and the AI will generate a customizable plan and start to code.

• The agent can choose appropriate technologies and frameworks for the project and create web-based apps from scratch.

• Users can also interact with the agent, providing feedback and additional information as needed.

• The tool is available now on both web and mobile platforms for Replit Core and Teams subscribers.

Why it matters: AI is good at coding, but setting up an integrated development environment is still a major roadblock for most new coders. Replit Agent does this automatically and helps complete beginners go from idea to a fully functional app in a few prompts. It’s never been easier to build something cool.

AI RESEARCH

👾 AI creates infinite Super Mario Bros game

The Rundown: Researchers developed an AI system called MarioVGG that can generate an infinitely playable Super Mario Bros game entirely through video, without using a traditional game engine.

The details:

• MarioVGG is a text-to-video AI model trained specifically on Super Mario Bros gameplay with a single consumer-grade GPU in just 48 hours.

• It can generate continuous, infinite game footage based on simple text commands like “run” or “jump”.

• The AI simulates game physics, mimics character movements, and even creates new levels on demand.

Why it matters: A week ago, Google created an AI-generated DOOM video game. Now, we have infinite Super Mario Bros. In the future, with tech like this, anyone will be able to create custom, interactive games simply by describing them to an AI.
