Here is a 2021 med journal publication on potential uses:

Here is a nature article on their use in AI:

One of my favorite details is that they sometimes grow little eyes. 👀 🧠

Pleasant dreams!

This is what I told my bosses when AI first showed up and they called a meeting to discussed how to leverage it.

It’s not going to replace me, it’s going to replace you.

I believe this will happen, only slowly enough that it will feel normal. First genetic diseases for a generation. As our understanding and editing improve, humans will start to edit for benefits, maybe something small like eyesight, so kids don’t need glasses. Eventually, it will just be a part of our medical culture. If everyone is edited, it won’t be taboo to keep going, after all, who wouldn’t want their kids to be better off than they are? 1000 years from now, our species won’t be recognizable to us today. Slightly related, have you seen what they’re doing with lab grown human brain cell organoids connected to microchips? 1000 years (or significantly less!), unrecognizable.

No one mention this to the US military

American culture is our only export.

We knew they existed before we found them, because of maths, andthe math actually gets us pretty far. It’s the singularity in the center, or past the event horizon that we can’t know about, because reality is shy like that. It boggles my mind that we were able to look around and say “hey guys, I’ve been measuring stuff, like how fast things fall down, and well, you’re not gonna believe this.”

A lot Please, please, please, someone check my googled physics and AI math:

E = mc² = 1 kg × (3×10⁸ m/s)² = 9×10¹⁶ joules (90,000,000,000,000,000 joules)

or

~21.5 MEGAtons of TNT (by comparison, the Hiroshima bomb was ~15 KILOtons)

It would have a temperature of ~1.2 × 10²³ K (1,200,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Kelvin) The sun is a 5,772 Kelvin.

Like a ‘small’ star, it would radiate energy of about ∼3.6×10³² Watts (3,600,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 W) The sun puts out about 3.8x10²⁶ Watts (380,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 W)

Final burst duration: less than ∼8×10⁻¹⁷ seconds, or slightly faster than it takes for your mom to drop her panties.

Now for the best part. All of that energy would emanate from a very, and I can’t express this enough, very tiny spot, like a billion times smaller than a proton:

~1.5×10⁻²⁷ meters

A proton is about 10⁻¹⁵

From seemingly nowhere, instant God-boom. I like to imagine that whatever was next to it would just disappear, and then the shockwave would happen.

Again, I googled and used AI to run the code for the calculations, so…you know, correct me and downvote.

That’s understandable.

You underestimate how incredibly flammable gasoline is
