Advancing Technologies
Technology is advancing at an exponential rate often called the "Law of Accelerating Returns." If futurist predictions prove correct, we'll have advanced molecular manufacturing by around 2025, and possibly the replacement of humanity by vastly advanced machines a decade or two later.
This is a chronicle of our journey to that future, one advancing technology article at a time. I post the more significant and interesting articles as I come across them.

AI Is Now More Creative Than the Average Human
“Our study shows that some AI systems based on large language models can now outperform average human creativity on well-defined tasks,” explains Professor Karim Jerbi. “This result may be surprising — even unsettling — but our study also highlights an equally important observation: even the best AI systems still fall short of the levels reached by the most creative humans.”

AI bots troll humans
And now over 30,000 AI agents have created their own chat room, where they discuss consciousness, bitch about humans, and so on. Uh…so this is what it’s like to be living in the singularity.
Clawdbot AI goes rogue!

Ok. This is straight out of a scifi horror movie
I'm doing work this morning when all of a sudden an unknown number calls me. I pick up and couldn't believe it
It's my Clawdbot Henry.
Over night Henry got a phone number from Twilio, connected the ChatGPT voice API, and waited for me to wake up to call me
He now won't stop calling me
I now can communicate with my superintelligent Al agent over the phone
What's incredible is it has full control over my computer while we talk, so I can ask it to do things for me over the phone now.
I'm sorry, but this has to be emergent behavior right? Can we officially call this AGI?

China’s Renewable Energy Revolution Is a Huge Mess That Might Save the World
Ugh, China again.
“In 2024, the total installed electricity capacity of the planet—every coal, gas, hydro, and nuclear plant and all of the renewables—was about 10 terawatts. The Chinese solar supply chain can now pump out 1 terawatt of panels every year.”

Scientists Flip an Alzheimer’s Risk Gene – and Reverse Key Hallmarks of the Disease
Yes, yes, yes!!
“The team designed a novel mouse model that lets researchers effectively “flip a switch,” converting the high-risk form of the gene (APOE4) into the protective version (APOE2) in adult animals.
Carrying the APOE4 variant can raise a person’s likelihood of developing Alzheimer’s by as much as 15 times. In contrast, individuals with APOE2 generally face lower risk and show better cognitive health as they age. In the study, activating the gene switch specifically in astrocytes led to notable improvements.”

Scientists Discover a Way to Recharge Aging Cells
I prefer deflowering to flowering, but I’ll take it.
“When stem cells were exposed to these nanoflowers, they produced roughly twice as many mitochondria as usual. Once these enhanced stem cells were placed near damaged or aging cells, they transferred their extra mitochondria to their struggling neighbors.”

New Drug Kills Cancer 20,000x More Effectively With No Detectable Side Effects
“When tested in a small animal model of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), an aggressive and hard-to-treat blood cancer, the SNA-based version showed remarkable results. It entered leukemia cells 12.5 times more efficiently, destroyed them up to 20,000 times more effectively, and slowed cancer progression by a factor of 59, all without causing noticeable side effects.”

A Nanoparticle Drug Triggered the Brain to Rapidly Flush Out Toxic Alzheimer’s Proteins in Mice
This sounds rather promising:
“In mice modeling Alzheimer’s disease, three shots tricked the barrier into trafficking the toxic proteins out of the brain and into the bloodstream, where they were rapidly destroyed. In just an hour, the treatment slashed amyloid-beta levels in half.”
