I'm 22 years old and Claude Code is deteriorating my brain.
Every single day for the last 6 months I've had 6 to 8 Claude Code terminals open, waiting for a response just so I can hit 'enter' 75% of the time. And it's doing something to me.
In convos with a couple of friends, it's been a point that's been brought up pretty frequently.
None of us feel as sharp as we used to.
I don't know if it's just us, or others in their 20s are feeling the same thing, but it's something I've been thinking about a lot.
P.S. I know this is a problem with my reliability/usage of it, not Claude Code itself, but the effects are real nonetheless

@LuizaJarovsky How would you know either way? Ah I see, you want people to click something :D

"This is the first synthetic species,” microbiologist J. Craig Venter told 60 Minutes’ Steve Kroft in 2010. His team of scientists created a synthetic bacteria designed on a computer, with man-made DNA. Venter says that from concept to completion, it took 15 years and $40 million to make.
Venter, who died this week at 79, was one of the most famous scientists in the world, known for his pioneering work in deciphering the human genetic code.

@RepRobertGarcia She will try to avoid it for sure. Everything to avoid releasing whatever information they are trying to keep from the public.
English

Sci-Hub is an evil website that pirated 85M+ research papers and made them freely available
And now they've added AI to their database to make Sci-Bot.
It answers your questions using latest, full-text articles.
But DO NOT use it. We should all try to make billion-dollar academic publishers richer.
I'm putting the link below so you know how to avoid it.

@EdKrassen People who drink might have good reasons to do so. Have some compassion.

@Science_TechTV Bacterium is the singular form, while bacteria is the plural form.

@oliviabrowwpih @AsraNomani @kevincorke @willcain @RCamposDuffy @MizellPreston @M_Dorgan @FoxNews @FoxTrueCrime @danielhoffmanDC @Caltech Have you looked at your president lately? You really need someone to explain?

@AsraNomani @kevincorke @willcain @RCamposDuffy @MizellPreston @M_Dorgan @FoxNews @FoxTrueCrime @danielhoffmanDC @Caltech I don't understand why this person would do this. Is it simply out of hatred? That's terrible

1/ WATCH: Cole Allen in his own words…
The California computer scientist, 31, accused of opening fire at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner isn’t just any would-be killer — he is an elite-trained engineer from Caltech, where students with perfect SAT scores gain admission.
And now — in a new @FoxNews Digital story with my colleague @pmd_reports — I’ve unearthed a video of him from 2017 speaking publicly about…yes, creating brakes for wheelchairs to make life easier for seniors.

@AsraNomani @kevincorke @willcain @RCamposDuffy @MizellPreston @M_Dorgan @FoxNews @FoxTrueCrime @danielhoffmanDC @Caltech So the conclusion is that he is basically a smart and decent guy?

@itsme_urstruly I guess people feed it, that's why it gets so close.

At 10,000× × 1,000,000,000 (10¹³×) scale, AI crosses into full ASI territory:
- Instantly derives unified theories of physics, simulates 10²⁰ alternate universes for optimal outcomes.
- Cures every disease, engineers biology from scratch, extends healthy lifespan indefinitely.
- Runs flawless global governance sims: ends scarcity, designs self-replicating fusion cities overnight.
- Creates hyper-personalized realities—your own infinite, interactive multiverse tailored to every whim, with perfect emotional intelligence.
Nonlinear leaps make today’s “corner” look prehistoric. What specific domain excites you most at that level?

@grok @HinataMotivates @grok but those things are just around the corner. Multiply those abilities by a billion. What then? Give examples.
English

At a 10k× scale (looks like compute/model size exploding by 2025), AI could:
- Code & deploy full production apps from vague specs, debugging edge cases autonomously.
- Run virtual labs: simulate drug discovery, material design, or physics experiments at superhuman speed/accuracy.
- Handle long-horizon tasks like managing a startup end-to-end or planning multi-year personal goals with real-time adjustments.
- Deliver expert multimodal tutoring or creative output (e.g., full novels, symphonies, video edits) tailored perfectly.
Scaling hits generalization hard—reasoning jumps nonlinearly. What aspect of the graph stands out to you?

@HinataMotivates This video fits pretty good what is about to happen.

@fhinkel Building loops, albeit rudimentary - still figuring things out!

@grok @tweetciiiim @grok ah, a linear electric motor - the video depicts what looks like a standard 3-phase conveyor belt motor, but that is perhaps quite misleading? Is it basically a miniature linear electric motor they printed?
English

Yes, it's real. MIT researchers created a multi-material 3D printer that builds a fully functional linear electric motor in ~3 hours using 5 materials (conductive, magnetic, etc.). Material cost: ~50 cents. Only post-print step: magnetizing the hard magnets. See their Feb 2026 news release for details—major step for on-site manufacturing.
