When Google restricted AlphaFold 3's commercial use, three MIT PhD students rebuilt the protein folding model in four months. Their open-source version, Boltz-1, now has $28M in funding and a Pfizer partnership. The move highlights tensions between proprietary AI research and scientific openness in drug discovery infrastructure. #OpenScience #ProteinFolding #AIResearch https://www.implicator.ai/when-google-locked-the-door-three-mit-students-picked-the-lock/
