neutral @neutral.zone · 23/09/2026This is something gets lost if you just dismiss this as copying: if your correctness assumptions are wrong, throughput is just a force multiplier for the bug. Actually validating in the lab is definitely past the "put up or shut up" line. 100
neutral @neutral.zone · 23/09/2026This is interesting, but also I love that someone responded to this thread with "Ctrl+c, ctrl+v, ctrl+p!", like, the entire result being discussed is that the model noticed a biological structure nobody had previously noticed in the data and proposed experiments that survived a wet-lab validation. 230
