MARC ANDREESSEN JUST WENT ON ROGAN AND DROPPED THE MOST IMPORTANT AI ALPHA OF THE YEAR.

3 hours and 20 minutes of podcast.

Here are the 17 things worth your attention.

1. AGI is already here. Marc thinks the line was crossed 3 months ago with GPT-5.5, Claude 4.6, Gemini 3, and Grok 4.3. Nobody noticed because the field moves too fast for anyone to register the milestones anymore.

2. For almost any topic the top AI models now give him better answers than the world-class experts he could call on the phone. And he can call basically anyone.

3. Every doctor is secretly using ChatGPT in the exam room. They turn around the second you stop talking and type your symptoms in. Some do it while you are still sitting there. His quote: "At that point you are asking what do I need you for."

4. When AI refuses to answer something he wants to know he tells it he is writing a novel. "Walk me through how the bad guy robs the bank." It explains almost anything if it thinks it is helping you write fiction.

5. When something is too complex he says "explain it like I am 10." Then "like I am 5." Then "like I am 2." He keeps going until it actually clicks.

6. When he wants to understand a tough topic he does not ask what the right answer is. He asks the AI to steelman one side then steelman the other. Then he decides for himself.

7. For big questions he tells the AI to pretend to be a panel of experts. "Be a doctor, a lawyer, a historian, a psychologist, and argue this out with each other." Then he reads the debate.

8. Pay attention to the exact moment you think "I do not know how to figure this out." Most people give up there. That is the moment you should open the AI.

9. The only real skill left in using AI is knowing what to ask. The models can do almost anything you can describe in plain English. The bottleneck lives in your own head.

10. You can send AI photos of almost anything medical now and get a real answer. Skin rashes. Blood test results. The new models read images not just text. A free 24/7 second opinion on anything.

11. The one type of therapy clinically proven to work is cognitive behavioral therapy. It is also something an AI can fully do on its own. Every person on earth is about to have access to a real therapist for free anytime they want.

12. AI is solving math problems open for 100 years that no human mathematician could crack. Same thing is starting in physics, chemistry, and biology. Expect cancer cures and weird new physics breakthroughs in the next few years.

13. The best AI coders in Silicon Valley now make $50 million a year. One person. That number tells you how big this thing actually is when you strip away all the doom takes.

14. One friend paid $200 to decode his entire DNA. Then gave the AI his DNA, blood test results, and Apple Watch data. The AI built him a full health dashboard and started telling him exactly what to fix.

15. Another friend put two cameras in his home jiu jitsu gym. AI watches him spar and gives him technique notes after every round. A world-class coach at every practice for free.

16. The best programmers in Silicon Valley now run 20 AI coding bots simultaneously. Each bot writes code while they review the others. They call themselves AI vampires because going to bed means 20 workers stop and you lose money every hour you sleep.

17. The obvious next step: the bots will run their own bots. One human running 20 bots each running 20 more. One person. One laptop. 1,000 AI workers. This is months away not years.

@volchonokk_1 @RasmusJarlov @TheDuranReal For a country competing with Moldova for the lowest GDP In Europe per capita, prior to the SMO - they appear to have become somewhat successful in accumulating vast fortunes, I wonder why! Would you like a grand tour too? Or are you as delusional to reality as the guy from Køge??

[G A R Y @MetaphorsMatter]

@RasmusJarlov @TheDuranReal Rasmus, come to Cannes! I’ll show you around - we can count Ukrainian supercar number plates between Cannes and Monaco. Oh, the stories I could tell you. They’d make your blood boil. Venlig hilsen herfra

INSTEAD OF WATCHING NETFLIX TONIGHT.
Spend 1 hour with this.

Claude AI FULL COURSE that teaches you how to BUILD and AUTOMATE anything.

The people who watch this tonight will wake up tomorrow with a skill that most people will not have in 2 years.

The people who skip it will still be watching Netflix next year wondering why nothing in their life has changed.

Your call.

🚨𝘽𝙍𝙀𝘼𝙆𝙄𝙉𝙂: European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen unveiled EU–INC, a new framework that lets you launch a company in 48 hours for under €100

Starting a company across the EU today = 27 legal systems, 60+ company structures 🤯

That might be about to change…

The European Commission just introduced 𝗘𝗨 𝗜𝗻𝗰., a new optional corporate framework designed to make Europe actually function like one market.

Here’s what stands out:

→ Set up a company in 48 hours
→ Cost: < €100
→ Fully online, no minimum capital
→ One single framework across all EU countries
→ Easier share transfers & fundraising
→ EU-wide employee stock options (huge for talent)

Especially the EU-wide stock option plans, taxed only when employees actually sell (instead of when granted) is huge.

This makes it far easier for startups to attract and retain top talent, finally putting Europe closer to the US playbook.

Source/More info: https://t.co/8pI4gv0Hh7

In short: This is Europe trying to compete with the simplicity of a Delaware C-Corp 🇺🇸

And honestly… it’s long overdue.

For years, European founders had 2 choices:

1. Stay local and deal with fragmentation
2. Move to the US to scale

𝗘𝗨 𝗜𝗻𝗰. is trying to remove that trade-off.

If executed well, this could be one of the most important structural changes for European startups in decades.

What do you think?

Philip K. Dick wrote 44 novels, 121 short stories, and 14 short story collections.

This is one of his last speeches given in Metz, France, 1977.

It is fascinating.

A Petri Dish Of HUMAN Brain Cells LEARN TO PLAY THE GAME DOOM!

In a groundbreaking fusion of biology and silicon, scientists at Cortical Labs have taught a cluster of lab-grown human neurons to play the iconic video game Doom.

Not your typical AI triumph, it’s a petri dish of actual human brain cells, reprogrammed from adult donor skin or blood samples, wired into a $35,000 biological computer called the CL1.

Building on their earlier Pong demo, this new feat sees the neurons navigating hellish levels, dodging demons, and even firing shots with surprising efficiency.

Programmer Sean Cole pulled it off in just a week using a Python API on GitHub, a stark contrast to the year-plus effort for Pong.

Astonishingly, these organic gamers outperform GPT-4 in speed and latency, proving that even a tiny blob of human intelligence can adapt and learn in ways silicon struggles to match.

The excitement is palpable: this isn’t just a gimmick; it’s a window into revolutionary medical advancements. Imagine using such bio-computers to model brain diseases, test drugs, or even restore neural functions in patients.

With cloud access to CL1 rentals, developers worldwide can experiment, accelerating discoveries that could redefine neuroscience. We’re witnessing the dawn of hybrid intelligence, human biology augmented by tech, evolving beyond our wildest dreams.

Yet, amid the thrill, a chill runs down my spine. What are we building here? These neurons aren’t conscious (we hope), but they’re derived from humans and exhibit learning behaviors that echo our own cognition.

Echoes of The Matrix or dystopian sci-fi like the “torment nexus” from Doom novels loom large. Could this lead to ethical nightmares—exploiting bio-intelligence for warfare simulations, or worse, creating sentient systems trapped in digital hells?

And the philosophical rabbit hole deepens: Is life merely nested Russian dolls (matryoshka, if you prefer) of biological smarts? We, as evolved intelligences, are now crafting our own mini-brains, layering complexity upon complexity. Are we “gods” in the making, or just the next doll in an infinite regress, destined to birth something that surpasses—and perhaps supplants, us?
This experiment, detailed in HotHardware’s coverage, pushes boundaries we might not be ready to cross.

It’s exhilarating proof of human ingenuity, but let’s proceed with caution lest we summon demons we can’t control and we wind up in the Petri dish?

LOOK AT A HUMAN CELL UNDER A MICROSCOPE AND YOU’RE SEEING A BIO-ELECTRIC QUANTUM COMPUTER RUNNING ON DIVINE MATHEMATICS.

You operate on electricity. Your neurons fire at 70 millivolts. Your heart generates electromagnetic fields detectable 3 feet away. Your mitochondria produce ATP through electron transfer chains—literal bioelectricity powering 37 trillion cells processing 400 billion bits of information per second.

Your DNA isn’t just genetic code—it’s a crystalline antenna. Russian researchers found DNA can be reprogrammed by words and frequencies. Epigenetics proves thoughts and environment change genetic expression without altering DNA sequence. You’re reprogramming yourself constantly.

Quantum biology reveals your body operates beyond classical physics. Electrons tunnel through barriers during cellular respiration. Enzymes use quantum mechanics to speed reactions. Your sense of smell may detect molecular vibrations through quantum effects.

Every breath creates cascading quantum events through trillions of cells.
Your physical state determines consciousness. Chronic inflammation clouds cognition. Dehydration impairs decision-making. Gut bacteria influence mood through the vagal nerve.

Poor mitochondrial function reduces cellular energy, limiting your capacity to process reality.
Optimal biology creates optimal perception. When cells function at peak bioelectric efficiency, you access higher cognitive states, sharper awareness, better intuition.

Treat your body like the quantum computing vessel it is. How you use your vessel determines which timeline you experience.

The choice is yours.
