This is like saying “Responsible use of highly infectious diseases.”

Ohh you mean like the prize winning Folding project that google just shut down so that they could reassign all the staff to work on Gemini instead?

The project that reached its goals and is the basis for new projects? Yeah

Their model for folding proteins worked, is complete and access is given freely to researchers for use. I'm not sure what you think they should be working on now, are the people who made it supposed to just never move on to new projects?

Cough on the face of the person you want to say hello to... Wait... People already do that.
