    so there are smart investors like this guy still out there

    when you try to look at everyone at the same time and end up looking at nobody.

    Proteins ARE robots and DeepMind/Alphafold enables humanity to harness about 200,000,000 nano robots. This adds trillions to global economy. One billion Ph.D. protein science years, or one million Ph.D. protein science candidates producing 10,000 protein science papers annually, can now translate the science to clinical and commercial applications. Previously protein Ph.D. students spent 5 years of drudgery and obscurity to solve one protein, now they can match nanorobots to practical application. Ditto other AI breakthroughs, producing more work, prosperity.

    It’d be nice to revisit the documentary The Symphony of the Soil and identify all species of soil microbes, 1,000s, 1,000,000s, 1,000,000,000s, etc and all past Planet Earth environments, just in case…

    Note that simply by switching your model of the world, you bring about great effects. ( PS I have satisfied myself that atoms are elemental quantum computers.)

    Action Required: Compute, verify or rebut that Proteins are Nanorobots which will add trillions to Global .

    Audi alteram partem from ChatGPT…( What ChatGPT misses is that proteins are dynamic, much like robots, or that proteins are like tradesmen and women on a construction site)

    While proteins and nanorobots are fundamentally different in their composition and origin, there are a few similarities between them:

    Functionality: Both proteins and nanorobots can be designed or evolved to perform specific functions. Proteins have diverse functions within living organisms, such as enzymatic catalysis, molecular transport, and signaling. Similarly, nanorobots are engineered to perform specific tasks, such as targeted drug delivery, sensing, or manipulation of biological systems.

    Structural Complexity: Both proteins and nanorobots can possess intricate structures. Proteins fold into complex three-dimensional shapes determined by their amino acid sequence, allowing them to carry out their specific functions. Similarly, nanorobots can be designed with intricate architectures and nanoscale components to achieve precise functionality.

    Manipulation and Interaction: Both proteins and nanorobots can interact with other molecules or entities in their environment. Proteins can bind to specific molecules, such as substrates or ligands, and undergo conformational changes to perform their functions. Nanorobots can also be designed to interact with specific targets, whether through molecular recognition, surface interactions, or other mechanisms.

    Application Potential: Both proteins and nanorobots have potential applications in various fields. Proteins are extensively studied and utilized in biotechnology, medicine, and other areas for their functional properties. Nanorobots, although still in the early stages of development, hold promise for applications in fields like medicine, nanoscale manufacturing, and environmental sensing.

    It’s important to note that these similarities should not overshadow the fundamental differences between proteins and nanorobots, as proteins are natural biological molecules while nanorobots are man-made devices.

    the term AI itself is so broad. Most companies are doing conditioning and filtering

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.

What if science class felt less like studying out of a textbook and more like an unforgettable field trip? From viral glitter-bomb traps to backyard engineering marvels, former-NASA-engineer-turned-YouTuber Mark Rober has spent years proving that curiosity is contagious — and that the best way to teach science is to make it impossibly fun. In conversation with TED’s Whitney Pennington Rodgers, Rober shares how play, wonder and a healthy dose of mischief can transform the way kids learn … and gives a peek inside his plan to bring magic to every classroom in America. (This conversation was part of an exclusive TED Membership event. TED Membership is the best way to support and engage with the big ideas you love from TED. To learn more, visit ted.com/membership.)
