Scope and limitsDated by the original-period capture, which the cross-family machine check of 2026-10-30 opened (maintainer decision of 2026-10-30); this admission could not reach the Internet Archive, so the reading is not repeated here. The capture credits Andrew Senior, John Jumper and Demis Hassabis. The page as served in 2026 displays a later date and may differ in wording from the 2018 expression. The CASP13 results are recorded separately from CASP’s own papers.

Check notes: Candidate pack passage, AI in biology (research/ai-in-biology). The quotation (14 words) matched the text retrieved for the candidate pack on 2026-10-30. Matching ignored differences of whitespace, case, quotation marks, dashes and Unicode compatibility forms, so the source’s typography can differ. A cross-family machine check (2026-10-30, item A8) answered the record’s question blind from fresh retrievals and agreed with the record. No human editorial review.
