A convicted former Harvard scientist is now the architect of China’s push to "blur the distinction between electronics and the human brain."
Charles Lieber, once the world’s top-ranked chemist and chair of Harvard’s chemistry department, has resurfaced as the founding director of i-BRAIN in Shenzhen. Just three years after his U.S. federal conviction for lying about ties to the Thousand Talents Program, Lieber is overseeing a state-funded institute bankrolled by a government that has declared brain-computer interfaces a "national priority."
The resource gap between his new lab and Harvard is staggering:
Unlimited Primate Access: Lieber now has access to 2,000 primate cages at the Brain Science Infrastructure Shenzhen—a resource far beyond what was available at Harvard, which closed its primate center in 2015.
Cutting-Edge Hardware: His lab recently installed a $2 million deep ultraviolet lithography system from ASML to print the microscopic circuits essential for neural implants.
Billion-Dollar Backing: i-BRAIN is part of a "manicured" science hub where parent institutions operate with five-year budgets totaling roughly $2 billion.
While Lieber’s work aims to treat conditions like ALS, the U.S. Defense Department warns that China’s military is investigating this exact technology to engineer "super soldiers" with enhanced situational awareness. Analysts call Lieber "Exhibit A" for why U.S. safeguards are failing; despite being caught and punished, one of America’s greatest scientific minds simply took his expertise to the very regime the U.S. was trying to keep it from.
As Lieber told a Shenzhen conference in December: "I arrived with a dream... my own goals are to make Shenzhen a world leader."

@MercuriusFilius put 1 black ball in the empty bucket so it's 50% they pick that one or 50% they pick between 49 black and 50 white balls which in total gives 0.5 * 1 + 0.5 * (49/99) =0.75 probability

@Beargirl_1 When did that theory start to make sense for you...

@DavidPuente Imagine trying to cover it up this hard. Holy fuck.
You dickheads are on insane damage control.

This technique is well known:
1) create an account
2) set the profile to private with hidden posts
3) write posts with names or events (e.g. the date of the Pope's death)
4) if the event happens, you delete everything else and leave only the matching one
5) make the profile public
6) the profile goes viral and gains followers
How many posts does the user have? Just one: the one with the name.
