Lets just try it, without thinking too deeply, is not a good idea

Chenxin Li, PhD (@chenxinli2.bsky.social) @ChenxinLi2 A related mood is “find the answer first, worry about the specific questions later.” It might sound counter intuitive, but very productive when it comes to genomics research. Replying to @ChenxinLi2Yes, it is called “cherry picking”. In new fields there is lots of low hanging fruit. Groups find things that

When true AIs are certified for human work, humans will have to be re-engineered

You are not wrong, but all human skills can be replaced, with enough time and effort.  And true AIs can work 24/7, never forget, communicate globally and optimize continuously.  And many jobs now for humans only require humans because slow procedures are allowed. AI-AI lossless communication and perfect memories will put many humans out of

NIST employee considers Internet users “too stupid to understand, why share?”

I am reading https://www.nist.gov/srd/nist-standard-reference-database-71 and downloaded the program.

Maybe OpenAI will finally use open methods to benefit all humans, not one human or a few

Dr. Hubertus Becker @hubertusbecker The real story behind Sam Altman’s firing from OpenAI is revealed. Issues: undisclosed fund ownership, safety inaccuracies, and a toxic environment. A history of deceptive behavior adds to the controversy.

Are groups introducing new molecules registering their experiments and methods?

Your cell-free methods can have positive impacts. But, the Internet is full of escaped chemicals, molecules, clusters and organisms from the past. Do you have global protocols, that can be audited, for your new things when many species, including humans, insects, plants, bacteria and viruses are exposed? What about colonies in aerosols in air?
