Room Temperature, Ambient Pressure Superconductivity—This Time for Real?

Materials Sciences Division, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, California, reporting density functional theory calculations of the LK-99 material reported to exhibit high-temperature superconductivity.

So the materials parameter space has a theoretically identified gradient toward room temperature superconductivity which is compute-tractable, as just demonstrated by LBNL, and there hasn’t been an all-out effort to throw massive gradient descent (such as Adaptive Simulated Annealing to avoid local minima traps) ML at the problem?
