Benefit versus harm counts
MatterGen generates stable inorganic crystals and one is synthesized
Microsoft’s MatterGen diffusion model, published in Nature in January 2025, more than doubled the rate of stable, unique, novel generated crystals versus prior generative models and reported one synthesized material within 20 percent of a target property.
GNoME expands the catalog of computationally stable inorganic crystals
DeepMind’s GNoME graph networks, published in Nature, identified about 381,000 new convex-hull-stable inorganic structures after large-scale DFT filtering of more than 2.2 million candidates.
Berkeley A-Lab autonomously synthesizes computationally proposed inorganic compounds
Lawrence Berkeley’s A-Lab, published 29 November 2023 alongside GNoME, used ML, literature NLP, and robotics to synthesize 41 of 58 targeted solids in 17 days, including materials suggested from DeepMind stability data.
