Limitations of phylogeny inference and utility of perplexity in BFMs

This chain explains how direct phylogenetic inference methods fail to scale with large BFM datasets, suggests information-theoretic approaches like perplexity as alternatives to capture phylogenetic structure, and highlights inherent limits in using phylogeny alone to understand fitness in biological foundation models.
