The domain is the domain of protein structure, something which potentially has gigantic applications to life. Predicting proteins may yet prove more useful than predicting text.

If so, where are application of this? Is it too early?

Could be interesting to correlate DNA with text produced by people. Both are self replicating, self evolving languages.

“Predicting proteins”? I’m a biologist and I can assure you knowing the rough structure of a protein from sequence is nowhere near as important to biology as everyone makes it out to be. It is Nobel prize worthy to be sure but Nobel prizes are awarded once a year not once a century.
