Yeah machine learning for medical research has been around for a lot longer than LLMs. LLMs do not do medical research, they are just really expensive and fancy “next word” auto-correct generators.
I remember way back when with the Folding at Home project. That’s a type of machine learning distributed. People happily contributed their computer time. Hell, there were contests around how much compute time a particular group could give.
