GNoME predicts 2.2 million crystal structures, and the claim is disputed

Google DeepMind published GNoME in Nature on 29 November 2023, reporting 2.2 million predicted crystal structures of which 381,000 were judged stable, and describing this as an order of magnitude expansion in the stable materials known. A companion paper from Berkeley Lab reported a robotic laboratory synthesising 41 of the predicted compounds.
