Over three million researchers worldwide now use AlphaFold for their work. A colleague named John suggests the tool's massive impact could eventually earn it a second Nobel Prize, a prospect the speaker finds exciting and potentially historic.

So do you expect that to happen? Second order Nobel? Yeah, that's a really interesting idea. I, I, I am, I think it's, it's possible, um, given the number of researchers who are using AlphaFold, you know, over 3 million at this point, and they're all doing incredibly important work and impactful work. So, uh, yeah, I guess that, that, that John's right. That may happen at some point. That would be an amazing moment.
