Claude has discovered a previously unknown enzyme system hidden in the DNA of bacteriophages. Beside the enzyme’s gene sits a long array of repeating DNA—a structure that looks somewhat similar to CRISPR. We don’t yet understand what this system does, but only a handful of known systems share its features, and all of them are able to cut, copy, and paste DNA. Historically, the discovery of such programmable systems has helped revolutionize medicine. CRISPR, for instance, is now the foundation of genetic medicines. But it will take much more work to learn what this system does, and whether it can be put to similar use. Read more: anthropic.com/news/claude-di…

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

HT: Brighton 4-0 #AVFC Towards end of the half, Villa, with 10 men, genuinely felt in danger of the 9-0 record defeat. So evidently under-equipped and a shambles. Feel quite sorry for those out on the pitch, though, given the circumstances Emery & players are dealing with. This obviously is a shell of the team they were/will be, but the season has started way too early for them.

Aston Villa can confirm that Lucas Digne has completed a permanent transfer to Paris Saint-Germain. The defender joined Villa in January 2022 from Everton and would go on to make 182 appearances in claret and blue, scoring four goals and registering 24 assists. Digne was a key part of the side that won the UEFA Europa League last season before helping France reach the semi finals of the FIFA World Cup 2026. A consummate professional, who was highly regarded by his fellow players and staff alike, Lucas leaves Aston Villa with the very best wishes of everyone at the football club.

8 years ago today I found a new home. Loving every minute of this mental journey. See you Wednesday in Salzburg #UTV 💜

Aston Villa can confirm that the club’s appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport regarding the registration of Brian Madjo has been upheld. 17-year-old Madjo signed for the club from Metz in January. Born in Enfield, London and a UK citizen, he left England at a young age and was raised in Luxembourg but has been unable to play due to FIFA‘s rules on the international transfer of minors. The striker has scored four goals in pre-season so far, including two in the opening friendly fixture against Walsall. The court’s decision today means that Brian will be registered as an Aston Villa player and eligible to play in official competition matches for the forthcoming season.
