Does “score" correlate with some estimate of the RMSD with respect to true structure?

Who is it that does the considering for us? Great that it's good enough to make molecular replacement work (VERY great!!!!) - but "on par" is a big word.

Subject: Re: [phenixbb] alpha-Fold 2?
For the most challenging proteins, AlphaFold scored a median of 87, 25 points above the next best predictions. It even excelled at solving structures of proteins that sit wedged in cell membranes, which are central to many human diseases but notoriously difficult to solve with x-ray crystallography. Venki Ramakrishnan, a structural biologist at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology, calls the result “a stunning advance on the protein folding problem.”

all - I just read the blurb in Nature Briefing about the DeepMind AI having made a big advance in the CASP protein fold prediction.
Does it sound really transformational, does it work for membrane proteins - all the usual questions come to mind.
Do we know enough yet about it?
