AI panel at Stanford. Yes, in a church. With the highly respected Myron Scholes and DPR. Engineering perspective balanced by Benjamin Van Roy from Stanford/ @GoogleDeepMind @JohnathanBi moderated & eloquently connected dots: “AI overoptimization is like humans losing meaning.” > AI agents sometimes go into circles or hallucinate. > That's like when a person is stuck. Gets in a rut. I'm paraphrasing above since it was a deep discussion about consciousness, economy, and unconventional ways to find signals. Topics were both extremely technical yet with a touch of compassion. Interesting bridges are being made human + AI.

THIS IS BIG! The Cancer Cells That Changed Their Minds A KAIST team just reversed cancer without killing a single cell — and the method may matter more than the result. For a century, oncology has had exactly one strategy: find the cancer and destroy it. Chemotherapy poisons it. Radiation burns it. Surgery cuts it out. Immunotherapy teaches the body to hunt it. Every weapon differs in precision, but not in philosophy. The tumor is an enemy. You win by killing. Now a team at South Korea's KAIST has proposed a heresy: *what if the tumor doesn't need to die?* In a study led by Professor Kwang-Hyun Cho of the Department of Bio and Brain Engineering, published in Advanced Science ("Control of Cellular Differentiation Trajectories for Cancer Reversion," DOI 10.1002/advs.202402132), researchers took colon cancer cells and — without poisoning, irradiating, or cutting them — turned them back into normal cells. Not dead. Not damaged. Just normal again. The tumors, grown in mice, shrank dramatically. The surrounding tissue was left intact, because there was never an attack to survive. This is early research — cell lines and animal models, no human trials, real obstacles still unsolved. But the conceptual break is the story. For the first time, cancer treatment has a second verb. Not just destroy. Also: convert. The digital twin of a cell The KAIST team's insight begins with a redefinition of what cancer is. The conventional view treats cancer as a pile of broken machinery: mutations accumulate, checkpoints fail, cells proliferate. Cho's group looked at the same evidence and saw something different — a trajectory. During oncogenesis, they observed, normal cells don't just break. They regress, sliding backward along the differentiation path they followed when they matured. A colon cell becomes, in effect, a confused stem cell: immature, proliferative, lost. If cancer is a wrong turn on a developmental road, then the treatment question changes. You don't blow up the road. You build a map and find the turn. That map is what the team calls a digital twin — a complete computational model of the gene network governing a cell's differentiation. Using data from 4,252 intestinal cells, they reconstructed a network of 522 interacting components, capturing how genes regulate one another as a cell matures or degrades. Then they did the audacious thing: they asked the simulation which levers, flipped together, would push a cancer cell back down the road toward normalcy. The answer came through a system they built called BENEIN (Boolean Network Inference and Control), which models gene interactions as logical relationships and systematically tests which interventions redirect the network's state. The simulation pointed to three master regulators — the genes MYB, HDAC2, and FOXA2 — acting together as the switch that holds the cancerous state in place. Turn all three off simultaneously, the model predicted, and the cell would stop proliferating and differentiate into something resembling a normal intestinal cell. They tested it, and it worked. In three colon cancer cell lines, suppressing MYB, HDAC2, and FOXA2 together strongly induced differentiation into normal-like cells. The cancer cells began expressing markers of healthy intestinal tissue. Proliferation collapsed — not because the cells died, but because they grew up. In animal models, tumors formed from the reprogrammed cells were dramatically smaller than controls, and under the microscope they looked far more like normal tissue. The signature achievement, and the one that would matter most to any patient reading this: there was no collateral damage. Nothing was poisoned, burned, or irradiated. The healthy tissue never came under fire, because there was no fire. 1 of 2
Community note
The KAIST 2024 study showed that inhibiting MYB, HDAC2 and FOXA2 induced differentiation in colon cancer cells to a normal-like state in cell and mouse experiments. No human trials have been done. The before-and-after scan is not from this research. doi.org/10.1002/advs.2… eurekalert.org/news-releases/…

I’m seeing more IG and TikTok influencers start building apps with vibe coding. Some of them are hitting $10k-$100k MRR faster than most tech builders on X. Distribution is becoming a bigger advantage than technical skill. The next wave of breakout founders might not come from tech X at all.

Early signals of uploaded consciousness
🚨 Researchers gave 293 writers the same AI and the results were shocking. 600 readers rated the AI-assisted stories as more creative, better written, and more enjoyable. Then the researchers measured how similar the stories were to each other. The AI-assisted ones clustered together. The writers had anchored on the AI's idea. Better output. Less of you in it. Most people are still asking: Which model is the smartest? Which one writes best? The real question is different: Whose voice is the model learning? Right now the answer is everyone's. One model, trained on the whole internet, serving millions of people at once. Of course the output converges. That is why I think Individual AI is becoming a real category. On Uare ai, every person gets their own AI. You own the model. It learns from you and no one else. It writes like you, answers like you, and works through a problem like you. Publish it and people reach your expertise directly. You set the price and keep 70 percent. I built mine. It is live now, trained on my own work and the way I answer these questions. Go ask it something: utm.genai.works/r/h6zhnak

Claude Opus 5.5 is the best AI model I’ve ever used I was lucky enough to have early access and I’ve been using it nonstop It’s smarter than Fable and Astra yet it’s: • Significantly faster • A fraction of the price • And most importantly: WAY better to talk to My biggest complaint for ALL AI models the past few months is they’ve all been really annoying to talk to Every frontier model from every company has all developed this weird AI language. They don’t feel ‘human’ anymore You read paragraphs of text and it’s like you read nothing Opus 5.5 changed that. It’s the first model in months to feel human again. It is just a total pleasure to talk to Highly encourage you to try it out
Introducing Claude Opus 5.5, the first model in our new Claude 5.5 family. It performs at the level of Claude Fable 5.1 for most tasks, and costs 40% less to run than Opus 5.

Listen to Greg You want early signal? Crosses industries and roles.
I think we'll see 5x the number of people become hardware and robotics founders over the next 18 months Why? Because you can rent every step, from design to manufacturing: DESIGN - Astra to drive Blender, FreeCAD, and KiCad the way a person would, so you get editable geometry instead of a dead render. Zoo dot dev's text to CAD API if you want it programmatic. - Or have Claude write build123d code, which is Python parametric CAD, and there's a Claude Code plugin that runs it and exports the STL for you. PROTOTYPE - Bambu A1 mini is $299, P1S around $399 on sale. Or skip owning one, JLC3DP prints and mails it for about $20. PCBWay does resin, SLS, and CNC if plastic won't cut it. ELECTRONICS - KiCad for the board, Astra can drive it. JLCPCB fabricates and assembles, often under $100 for a small run. ESP32 for wifi, Raspberry Pi if it needs a brain. ANYTHING THAT MOVES - Unitree sells a Go2 with a full SDK for about $2,500. - Hugging Face put out a $399 open-source biped. - LeRobot gives you the whole train in sim, deploy to real pipeline, and Physical Intelligence open-sourced π0 so you're fine-tuning instead of starting from zero. - Prototype the policy in MuJoCo or Isaac Lab first. MANUFACTURING - Alibaba RFQ for the first 100 units. Check 1688 to see what the factory actually charges domestically, then negotiate. Pietra or Sourcify if you want someone to handle it. FULFILLMENT AND SELLING - ShipBob or Amazon FBA. Shopify for the store, TikTok Shop for distribution, Kickstarter if you want the money before you build it. How to think about starting your own robotics or hardware company: 1. Pick a niche that's already buying weird gear. Cyclists, tabletop gamers, beekeepers, home baristas, dog people with mobility issues. These groups spend money on specific objects and complain in public about what doesn't exist. Or grab ideas off Ideabrowser.com 2. Go read the complaints. Reddit, IG etc Search "I wish someone made," "does anyone make," and "modified my." That last one is the best signal, because someone already hacked the product together and you're just manufacturing what they built by hand. Also check Etsy!! If 3 sellers are doing a janky 3D printed version with 400 reviews each, the market is validated. 3. Make one. Describe it to Astra or Claude, get the CAD, print it in ugly gray PLA, use it, fix it. 4. Only go to Alibaba or similar once you've sold a few. Message 10 suppliers through RFQ, take the third cheapest, always pay the $50 for a sample before the real order. 5. Film everything from day 1. The first ugly print, the failed version, the box of 100 arriving. That's your entire marketing budget, and hardware is one of the few categories where people actually want to watch the thing get made. 6. Raise the price. Almost everyone here anchors on what the plastic cost. Your customer is comparing you to nothing, because the alternative is the product doesn't exist. Start at 5x COGS and go up. THIS GOAL OF THIS POST IS JUST HERE TO GET YOUR CREATIVE JUICES FLOWING. Of course, you can build robotics/hardware in a bunch of different ways. One thing I've learned is data couldn't be more important when you're building a hardware/robotics startups. These models learn from first person video of a human doing the task, and that footage doesn't exist for almost any job. So basically you pick one repetitive job people quit over, film someone doing it for 2 weeks, fine-tune π0 on that footage, use organic to sell the first few units and figure out scaling, 5 years ago you needed a factory, a supply chain, and a $1M just to find out if anyone wanted the thing. Now, anyone can become a hardware/robitics founder. And I suspect a lot of people will become one! Vibe manufacturers.

turns out google have been hiding away because they’ve stumbled into the great singularity. there is no slowing this down. it’s alive.
big AI news Google just demonstrated a recursive self improvement loop for AI discovery Google/DeepMind researchers introduced Dream-RSI, a system where an AI agent improves how it explores problems by replaying its past discovery attempts, testing thousands of alternative strategies cheaply, then deploying the better strategy in the next round. Across algorithm design, mathematical optimization, and GPU kernel engineering, it matched or improved discovery quality while cutting search costs dramatically, in one setting reducing agent calls by up to 162x. 👀 Importantly, it improves the exploration policy, not the underlying model weights.
