166K-parameter model claims protein folding from neural activity, dwarfed vs AlphaFold

A viral demo claims a lightweight fruit-fly model (166K parameters) built with "GPT-6 Astra" reads neural activity and folds real protein structures, tested against antibody PDB 1IGT — a tiny fraction of AlphaFold's size and reportedly performing surprisingly well. Unverified.
