6/46 WGD, like multicellularity, evolved many times in history (see www.nature.com/articles/nrg... by @yvdp.bsky.social et al.), driving species radiations and innovations (like at the roots of vertebrates and angiosperms). In fact, most species either are polyploids or bear signs of ancient WGDs.
The evolutionary significance of polyploidy - Nature Reviews Genetics
Polyploidy occurs frequently but is usually detrimental to survival; thus, few polyploids survive in the long term. Here, evidence linking the short-term evolutionary success of polyploids to environm...

This was an insane team effort between Arc and Nvidia that convened machine learning and computational biology researchers across Stanford, UC Berkeley, and UCSF. Especially grateful to Jensen Huang for his belief and support of this vision and labor of love, and the entire Evo 2 team below

Evo 2 is trained on 9.3T tokens of DNA with single-base resolution at 1M token context length 🥳
We release two models with 7B and 40B parameters along with weights, training and inference code, and pretraining data—making this one of the largest fully open AI models available
