There is no reason why the physical structure of proteins should in any way resemble or be related to the structure and grammar of the associations and relationships between words.

That’s the problem though. According to the results of this and other papers, there is a still unknown relationship between proteins that AIs are able to recognize and manipulate. It just happens that the way AI find the patterns in human language can also be used to find the structure of proteins.
