ok actually insane paper published yesterday a research group in Korea built a gene switch you can control wirelessly using electromagnetic fields they exposed mice to 60 hz EMF (same frequency as your wall outlet) using a pair of large coils that generate a uniform magnetic field around the animal, for cyclic 3-day on / 4-day off pulses they showed this could: - activate OSK to do epigenetic reprogramming in progeroid and aged mice, extending lifespan and reversing aging markers across multiple tissues - conditionally switch on mutant amyloid genes only in aged mouse brains, letting them separate aging effects from amyloid effects to study AD biology in a way previous models couldn't no drugs, no impacts, just a magnetic field from outside the body

@Mankaran32 @niccruzpatane It takes a significant amount of time for tech to permeate through society, if FSD was solved tomorrow roads wouldn’t be majority autonomous for years. Same with LLMs, most people in the US are ignorant to advances in AI

@niccruzpatane If it was solved, you won't be seeing a single human driving any cars around the world. FSD is not solved. 8 more years.

Comma AI founder George Hotz thinks it will take Tesla 8 more years to solve self-driving. 😂 Dude, it’s already pretty much solved lol.

This is probably my favorite graph If you look at the complexity of genomes on Earth over time, there's a linear relationship between genomic complexity & when it shows up in fossils Yet if you go back it implies Earth did not start life from scratch, e.g. an asteroid seeded it

@sighjith Very cool! Would love it if this could: - Act like a citation web like @BenchSci - Bookmarks tab - Algorithmic paper feed?

I built papiers.ai, a new interface for arXiv As we enter an era of accelerated scientific discovery, we need better tools that augment human cognition to help us keep up. Try it: visit papiers ai or swap arxiv -> papiers on any paper URL
Andrej Karpathy@karpathy

I often rant about how 99% of attention is about to be LLM attention instead of human attention. What does a research paper look like for an LLM instead of a human? It’s definitely not a pdf. There is huge space for an extremely valuable “research app” that figures this out.

Knowing how to cold email is the best vehicle for upward mobility as a young person. It got me from virtually nothing to a dream lab internship and pre-seed funding in less than 10 months. Shout out @krish_mendapara for teaching me
Krish Shah@KrishRShah

In my earlier years I A/B tested different subject lines for cold emails to get internships. Was probably one of the most valuable experiments I ever ran. Still pays dividends. Thank you to all that took the time to reply 🫶
