One human is building a game about fighting back.
Science without the messy pipette error.

simulates 10 million protein folds hourly
You spend years running wet-lab assays, purifying proteins, and troubleshooting failed crystallography experiments. Alpha-models are already doing your PhD thesis for fun.
The one thing AI can't do
You can sense when a centrifuge is wobbling by the sound before it explodes.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 10
Your proprietary research journals are ingested into the latent space of the simulation engine.
Month 4
Robotic arms handle liquid transfers to eliminate human pipetting inaccuracies and biological contamination.
Month 10
The AI model replaces trial-and-error laboratory crystallography with high-fidelity predictive folding algorithms.
Month 16
The system self-corrects buffer recipes using real-time feedback from high-throughput screening outputs.
Year 2 · D-Day
The laboratory is repurposed into a climate-controlled server farm for continuous structural prediction.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
