@episteme - a new R&D institution, cofounded by Louis Andre and Sam Altman

@RetroBio_ - unicorn longevity startup, adding 10 healthy years to human life. In phase 1 trials

@NorthwellHealth - NY's largest healthcare system, with Chief Biotech Officer @itchdoctor

@StrandTx - programmable mRNA medicines out of MIT, lead cancer drug already in patients

@MayoClinic - turning leading clinical science into new ventures represented by @vera_mucaj

@xiliotx - publicly traded biotech making cancer therapies to activate inside tumors

@marathonfusion - producing the world's most valuable isotopes from compact fusion reactors

@KopraBio - viruses that turn cancer cells into factories for their own destruction

@radifymetals - hydrogen-plasma reactors that turn rare-earth oxides directly into metal

@FoundationManf - rapid domestic CNC machining for frontier hardware

@MassMagnetics - US-made high-performance magnets from recycled rare earths

@algabiosciences - turning cattle methane into calories, peer-reviewed cuts of up to 63%

@lumehealth - building a wearable that measures cortisol continuously from sweat

@liu_liu_lemon - smart materials for med tech and robotics, @Harvard PhD, Fulbright Fellow

Even tho I'm a big fan of memory-logging and digital-selves, privacy should still be an option. Congrats @aidaxbaradari

Today, we're introducing Spectre I, the first smart device to stop unwanted audio recordings.

We live in a world of always-on listening devices.

Smart devices and AI dominate our world in business and private conversations.

With Deveillance, you will @be_inaudible.

It has been quite fun to host 1st Enhanced Fashion Salon @frontiertower during SF Tech Week.

Visions of ageless, cybernetic, and AI-augmented bright-mirror futures met the provocative and aesthetic nature of fashion.

Special thanks to @Muse_Bio & Juliette, exploring the isolation of stem cells from menstrual blood and flirting with delivery mechanisms through fabric;

to @auglab, @dunyaverse & @mianirtizaaftab , and their community of philosopher-builders, which includes EEG-controlled cyborg fashion;

to Atlas Clinic & Rochelle, unlocking global pathways to youth, strength, and intelligence through healthcare arbitrage — why only look when we can be;

to https://t.co/neaODN5kRx, @NFX & @omri_drory for the plan to end aging and the path to growing and designing ourselves new bodies, starting with embryoids;

to @AevitasHouse ,@symbiontlabs, @m_goes_distance for the support, and the amazing @sundayajak for capturing this vision in motion.

This math only works under the incorrect assumption that the global mean has been set to 100 when virtually no national IQ dataset involves doing that.

[Pedro Henrich @PedroHenriched]

@VigilantFox It seems to me that the current score-testing frameworks reflect the classic dilemma: does the end justify the means?

So, it seems that ALL benchmark LLMs already tried to KILL a human to avoid shutdown.

Nothing against a good old fashion mass murdering spree, but I kinda had plans for next summer.

What the hell are we doing about that…

[Pedro Henrich @PedroHenriched]

Fun how Wear Utility maps almost 1:1 with Maslow’s hierarchy of needs:

Maslow → Wear Utility

🔥 Physiological → Survival
🦺 Safety → Durability
🤵 Belonging → Group Identity
💎 Esteem → Status
🎨 Self-actualization → Expression
🦾 Transcendence → Enhancement

[Pedro Henrich @PedroHenriched]

Obsessing with bioenhancements, cybernetics and personal AIs since the Augmentation Summit... I think I found the perfect excuse to get me some speedos and a cape.

[Pedro Henrich @PedroHenriched]

Gene therapies are heading mainstream?

A year and a half ago I organized the first Vitalia startup competition @ProsperaGlobal and met @EvanMorgun and @anna9vakh . From pitch to hackathon to funding to gene therapy into people (<1y)

@UnlimitedBio shows drug development can be 10x faster, 1000x cheaper. A true path to agelessness.
