It was formed through the merger of two AI labs, \u201cGoogle Brain\u201d and \u201cDeepMind.\u201d An interdisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and ethicists is developing the AI <a href=\"https:\/\/deepmind.google\/science\/alphafold\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u201cAlphaFold\u201d<\/a>, which, among other things, was able to solve a 50-year-old puzzle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AlphaFold: AI Saves Researchers Millions of Years of Research<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The so-called \u201cprotein folding problem\u201d has been a challenge for scientists for over half a century. Proteins\u2014the building blocks of life\u2014consist of complex 3D structures. Until now, deciphering these proteins took several years and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2020, AlphaFold changed all that: The system can now predict the structure of proteins within minutes with remarkable accuracy. Today, over two million researchers in more than 190 countries use the \u201cAlphaFold Protein Structure Database.\u201d As a result, AI has already saved hundreds of millions of years in research time, which scientists can now devote to solving medical and environmental problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But AlphaFold is not just a theoretical model; it is a tool for real-world progress, for example in the fields of<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Medicine:<\/strong> Researchers were able to develop a malaria vaccine by gaining a precise understanding of how the parasite interacts with human proteins. The system is also providing crucial assistance in research on heart disease.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Agriculture: <\/strong>To help farmers adapt to climate change, AlphaFold is assisting in the development of heat-resistant crops. Through molecular simulations, enzymes are modified so that plants can survive even as temperatures rise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Environment:<\/strong> 91% of all plastic ever produced has never been recycled. To tackle this plastic crisis, \u201cplastic-eating\u201d enzymes have been identified. They can break down plastic into its original polymers, thereby enabling 100% recycling.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AI with a Commitment to Sustainability and Responsibility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Google DeepMind is committed to Google\u2019s AI principles: innovation, responsibility, and collaboration. This is also reflected in its use of resources: According to its 2025 Environmental Report, Google pursues a \u201cfull-stack\u201d approach, in which efficiency guides every level of the development process\u2014from chip design to the optimization of AI models. In this way, the company minimizes its environmental footprint. Nevertheless, the report\u2019s focus is on the use of AI as an opportunity for economic growth and social progress. Sustainability appears to be secondary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Energy and Water<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Energy:<\/strong> Google recognizes the high energy demands of its global infrastructure and is investing heavily in \u201cclean\u201d energy. However, it is not clear what proportion of this comes from nuclear versus renewable energy sources. AI-optimized scaling will reduce data center emissions by 12% between 2023 and 2024.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Water:<\/strong> We need to manage responsibly the large volumes of cooling water that protect data centers from overheating. The majority (72%) of the freshwater required comes from regions where there is no risk of water scarcity. Google has set a goal to return more water to nature than the company withdraws. In 2024, 4.5 billion gallons of water were returned to nature.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Google DeepMind aims to use AI to solve the most difficult scientific and practical challenges. In the spirit of \u201cAI for Good,\u201d AI as a technology can contribute to a future worth living: curing diseases, combating climate change, and preserving the Earth\u2019s resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Cover photo: CC Alex Shuper, Unsplash ; edited by Tina Teucher Team<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Tina Teucher is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tinateucher.com\/en\/speeches-sustainability\/\">speaker<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tinateucher.com\/en\/moderation-sustainability\/\">moderator<\/a> specializing in sustainable business.
