@patrickc @skdh I am a quantified self “person”. How did you get genetic mapping? I’d like to replicate some of the stuff you’ve done.

I'm lucky enough to have a great doctor and access to excellent Bay Area medical care. I've taken lots of standard screening tests over the years and have tried lots of "health tech" devices and tools. With all this said, by far the most useful preventative medical advice that I've ever received has come from unleashing coding agents on my genome, having them investigate my specific mutations, and having them recommend specific follow-on tests and treatments. Population averages are population averages, but we ourselves are not averages. For example, it turns out that I probably have a 30x(!) higher-than-average predisposition to melanoma. Fortunately, there are both specific supplements that help counteract the particular mutations I have, and of course I can significantly dial up my screening frequency. So, this is very useful to know. I don't know exactly how much the analysis cost, but probably less than $100. Sequencing my genome cost a few hundred dollars. (One often sees papers and articles claiming that models aren't very good at medical reasoning. These analyses are usually based on employing several-year-old models, which is a kind of ludicrous malpractice. It is true that you still have to carefully monitor the agents' reasoning, and they do on occasion jump to conclusions or skip steps, requiring some nudging and re-steering. But, overall, they are almost literally infinitely better for this kind of work than what one can otherwise obtain today.) There are still lots of questions about how this will diffuse and get adopted, but it seems very clear that medical practice is about to improve enormously. Exciting times!

@patrickc @patrickc can you share a little more about the genetic sequencing is this just the raw data from a 23andMe style test or are there particular services that do a more comprehensive sequencing?

@patrickc Who would you recommend as trustworthy and credible that provides gnome sequencing services.

@Spyglass_Feed A little (Freudian?) misprint in your text "The entire event was filmed with an iPhone 18 Pro"... :) but excellent summary of the event, thank you!

@M_C_B @ClementROUGET Pour avoir tester avec des maths (niveau 6eme) ce n’est pas du tout (du tout) au point ! Mais intéressant de voir ce que les prochaines maj nous préparent :)

@ClementROUGET si on est optimiste, on peut se dire qu'il y a un enjeu business pour openai (for-profit depuis 2019) à garantir la pertinence/qualité des réponses de chatGPT donc un incentive à éliminer le n'importe quoi... (en théorie)

contemplating the potential of chatGPT in teaching.... what if I had had access to conversational AI as I was struggling with math to go over things a teacher couldn't explain properly/repeatedly?

@M_C_B I like this house 💪

@photomatt THANK YOU 🙏 it drives me crazy.

Can we all agree that giant per-post image headers look terrible on most blogs? It’s been a curse of default WP themes past few years, too. We need it to be easier to have posts without image headers and even without titles.
