This new way of treating depression starts with rewiring the brain #TEDTalks
The idea that depression comes from a chemical imbalance in the brain has shaped treatment for decades. Neuroscientist Lisa Monteggia shares research suggesting that’s not the whole story — and shows how a decades-old drug could upend what we thought we knew about depression, with the potential to offer relief within hours.

The humanoid robot sector is exciting to me as a small farmer and butcher. Small businesses like mine will embrace them. I was really expecting $50k for the Tesla Optimus robot. At the recent oft quoted $20k I will take three if they can help me on my farm and butchershop – even with fairly simple tasks to start with.
My ideal would be a little more capable than the Tesla Optimus or Sanctuary AI Phoenix. An AgBot version. A little faster, say five miles per hour with a load. A little stronger, lift 400 lbs and carry 200 lbs up the mountain, able to roll & flip a 1,600 lb bale of hay. These are things I do an it needs to at least keep up with me.
Able to operate without internet connection is key. Rural reality.
Power lasts for atleast five hours but ideally 10 hours and charges in less than an hour. Or an exchangeable battery like power tools.
Able to work day or night. Nice weather, rain, snow, sleet and wind. Able to withstand water, mud, freezing (-50°F), and getting knocked around – real world rugged.
Able to use human tools like tractor, chainsaw, brush cutter, loppers, shovel, knives, rake, hoe, sorting board, etc. Pickup trash, put out hay, move lumber, check fence line, carry fence posts, check waterers, open and close gates, mow brush, clear fence lines, sort pigs, dehair a hog, skin a ham, debone, vacuum pack meat, labels on packages, carry boxes…
In other words my basic daily farm, construction, forestry and butchershop tasks in my small business.
At $20k each I will take three humanoid AI humanoid robots for my farm, butchershop & forest. Robots with pitch forks, knives and chainsaws… What could go wrong?

@Gray Thompson It’s remarkable to have faith in someone who can consistently deliver profits under any circumstances, and they never disappoint. I trust MR. STEVE implicitly, and since trading with him, it’s been nothing but victories.

he didn’t answer the last question. feels like very much a marketing driven company just looking to be bought out by a giant. at least he needed to talk about how his tech is different from other larger competitors

Where is the robot? they have nothing to show. It’s just a bunch of photoshop made images about a random robot and nothing to show for it. Another fake company. What’s gonna be next, they go public via a SPAC?
