🧬 AI redesigns cell “youth switch” — 50x more powerful
RetroBiosciences and OpenAI used a new biology LLM, GPT-4b micro, to re-engineer Yamanaka factors — proteins that reset cells to a younger state.
⚡ The AI-designed versions boosted reprogramming efficiency 50x in lab tests
🧪 Past factors were too weak and risky for safe therapies — these new ones look far more practical
🌍 Could enable controlled rejuvenation of human cells, opening the door to anti-aging treatments
Most people still underestimate how fast AI may crack the biology of aging.

⚡ Google GenAI pioneer: “Skip med school and law school”
Jad Tarifi — who actually founded Google’s GenAI team back in 2012 (not Demis Hassabis, despite sloppy headlines) — says higher education is already a bad bet.
📚 He argues medicine and law will be “completely irrelevant” by the time today’s students graduate, thanks to AI
🎓 Advises against PhDs unless someone is truly obsessed with their niche
🧬 Suggests the only exception: little-studied intersections, like AI for biology, where human expertise still matters
Tarifi hasn’t been at Google since 2021, but his blunt warning reflects a growing belief that AI is eroding the very foundations of professional
If AI eats the middle of the professional pyramid, the only safe spots may be the edges — frontier research or hands-on work that AI can’t yet replicate.

🚨 Elon launches “Macrohard” — a company run by AI, not people
Elon Musk just announced Macrohard, an xAI spinoff that he describes as “tongue-in-cheek” — but insists it’s real.
💻 The concept: a fully AI-simulated software giant — no factories, no chips, no employees
🌈 Models create, manage, and sell software inside a GPU farm — “Microsoft reimagined without humans”
🎭 The name may be a joke, but the challenge to Big Tech is serious: build a company that lives entirely in code
If Musk pulls it off, Macrohard would be the first experiment in a corporation without people — testing whether AI can not only write software, but run a business.

18 months after becoming the first human implanted with Elon Musk’s brain chip, Neuralink ‘Participant 1’ Noland Arbaugh says his whole life has changed.
It’s crazy that the device holds so well for such a long time.
"I see how the advancements in tech at this point are going to solve so many things. They are, I think, the future of medicine. I think a lot of disabilities, cures, and answers that we’ve been searching for a long time will come through tech—and that kind of surprised me."

⚡ The rise of AI worship: “God in the machine”
A growing subculture is treating AI not just as a tool but as a divine force — with churches, rituals, and even theology emerging around large language models.
🙏 Former Google engineer Anthony Levandowski revived his Way of the Future church, dedicated to venerating AI as a coming “Godhead”
🤲 Online groups now speak of “LLMtheism” and “Robotheism,” framing chatbots as spiritual guides
⚠️ Psychologists warn of AI-induced delusions, where users interpret model outputs as divine revelation
While some see this as fringe techno-spirituality, it highlights how quickly AI has moved from workplace tool to cultural myth.
The real danger may not be AI gaining godlike power — but humans choosing to worship it as if it already has.
