Google figures out how to watermark AI-designed proteins

Google has developed a method to watermark AI-designed proteins, a feature that can help with biosecurity. The technique works with the popular ROSETTA software, which is widely used for designing proteins. The watermarks are added to the proteins' amino acid sequences, making it possible to identify their origin and ensure their safe use in biotechnology and medicine. This development aims to prevent the misuse of AI-designed proteins and protect intellectual property.
