We report the results of our participation in the SAMPL8 GDCC Blind Challenge for host-guest binding affinity predictions. Absolute binding affinity prediction is of central importance to the biophysics of molecular association and pharmaceutical discovery. The blinded SAMPL series have provided an important forum for assessing the reliability of binding free energy methods in an objective way. In this challenge, we employed two binding free energy methods, the newly developed alchemical transfer method (ATM) and the well-established potential of mean force
