DeepMind's AlphaGenome Atlas scores all 9B human DNA variants
A free API and 1PB of predictions ship today; Grok 4.7 is days out, and Samsung's €3B keeps Europe's open-weight stack independent.

Every possible variant, pre-scored
The Atlas is roughly 1 petabyte — about 30x the AlphaFold database — covering all 9 billion single-nucleotide variants plus 100M+ indels from gnomAD, UK Biobank and All of Us, each carrying ~27,000 cell-type-specific predictions. A new AVI score collapses splicing, expression and loss-of-function signals into one number per variant.
Query it this weekend, free
Request an API key on the AlphaGenome page, pip install the client, and feed DNA up to 1M base pairs for single-base-resolution predictions — free for non-commercial use, with a skill already wired into Google's Antigravity agent platform. Enough to prototype a rare-disease variant triage tool or a non-coding annotation pipeline.
The commercial catch
The free key is non-commercial and rate-limited to thousands of predictions, not millions — large runs wait for the paid tier coming to Google Cloud. Static AVI score downloads, though, ship under a permissive license you can use commercially today.
Report: Grok 4.7 lands mid-September
Musk says a ~2.1T-parameter Grok 4.7 — 40% bigger than 4.6, with supplemental SpaceX-data training — is roughly a week out, but xAI's docs still stop at 4.6 with no model ID, price or benchmarks. If you build on the xAI API, expect a new model and pricing reshuffle imminently; treat every spec as reportedly until it hits the sheet.
Elsewhere: Samsung backs Europe's open weights
Mistral closed a €3B Series D led by Samsung at a ~$24B valuation — Europe's largest tech round — earmarked for its sovereign, open-weight stack. For anyone self-hosting Mistral models, it signals the open lineup keeps shipping independent of the US labs.
