Cheating, but okay:
“In practice, the molecule brings the body into a metabolic state corresponding to running 10 kilometers at high speed on an empty stomach.”
“Specifically, increases in longevity of between 10 and 18.6% and decreases in the proteotoxic effect of plaques of between 30 and 40% were observed.”

It would be great if this obviates the need for prophylactic brain radiation:

“This could not only make EVs much cheaper than internal combustion cars, but it provides a new and promising form of large-scale energy storage, enhancing the resilience of the electrical grid,” Chen said. “In addition, our cathode would greatly improve the sustainability and supply chain stability of the EV market.”
This is stunning: It appears AI took an hour to write a program based on a scientific paper that took the PhD author a year to do the same thing!
David Shapiro is one of those guys who has his finger on the pulse of AI development, and here he is noting that we are just a stones throw away from AGI:
FINALLY perovskite solar panels come to market:
There are at least four major robotics manufacturers, so Tesla doesn’t have a lock on this…but the robots are coming, and soon:
I’ll never use this AI, but it’s more exciting to me than the upcoming GPT5:
This home robot is already being tested in real-world homes! It’s so smooth it looks like someone in a costume, but the hands give it away. Supposed to be available early in 2025 for under $20,000, I think:
Some interesting insights into what’s going on in the AI industry:
An important innovation for a heating planet:

The latter suggests 840 mg daily has no contraindications.
My woo meter is twitching, but this sounds encouraging:
This line woke me up:
“Developed by researchers at The University of Texas at Austin, the AI algorithm correctly predicted 70% of earthquakes a week before they happened”

The topic isn’t interesting, but it’s an example of how AI is accelerating technological development:

Very interesting. I think I skipped the mid-40s change but maybe not the 60s change:

This is what is meant by technological advancement passing the dogleg of the law of accelerating returns!

“The data showed that only men with low total testosterone concentrations had higher risks for all-cause mortality. A key finding was that men with a testosterone concentration below 7.4 nmol/L (<213 ng/dL) had a higher risk for all-cause mortality, regardless of LH concentration. Men with a testosterone concentration below 5.3 nmol/L (<153 mg/dL) had an increased risk of cardiovascular death.”

Impressive and encouraging predictions, including nanobots. Haven’t heard much about nanobots lately!
Yeah, the benefits were always slim:
