@ThePrimeagen I feel like a Fury code commercial is in order

@ThePrimeagen You might need red light down the throat

@SamCKx It’s about giving people the belief that it is achievable. This only brings more people to the space of flying cars.

@XFreeze Why do we have to do it?

@mattyp Now what about family members?

Let’s find the benchmarks and the world will chase them

Like I said before, we're entering an era where aging itself could become a target of scientific intervention.

Here's a small hint of what's coming.

SCIENTISTS JUST REJUVENATED 80-YEAR-OLD CELLS TO A MOLECULAR AGE OF UNDER 20! 🤯

Researchers at the University of Bonn directly reprogrammed blood-derived cells into neural stem cells, substantially resetting their epigenetic age.

You may be 80, but some of your cells could potentially be rejuvenated to a much younger molecular state.

Researchers at the University of Bonn have demonstrated this in human cells in the lab.

Here's what they achieved:

→ Cells from an 80-year-old donor reached a molecular age of under 20.

→ Researchers studied cells from 15 donors aged 0–101.

→ They directly converted blood-derived precursor cells into neural stem cells, bypassing the conventional pluripotent stem-cell stage.

→ The rejuvenation process unfolded over approximately 50 days, with most measured age-associated epigenetic signatures resetting during this period.

The resulting cells could also develop into neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes.

The interesting part is the biology: the researchers observed substantial changes in DNA methylation patterns associated with aging, alongside changes in other cellular aging markers.

This could help scientists understand how cellular aging can be reversed at the molecular level and potentially advance research into age-related diseases.

We're still far from rejuvenating an entire human body.

But understanding how to reset the biological age of cells is an important step toward a future where age-related decline could become increasingly treatable.

The future of aging research is getting very interesting.

@ylecun @Kasparov63 Maybe stop to consider why they are all trying to rebrand

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

@elonmusk @BrianRoemmele @a16z Apparently no one in here stopped to think why they all agreed on to stop calling it AI and rebrand it.

@WhiteHouse Well if Crude oil is so low, why is diesel and gas so expensive?

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

@ag3ofabundance @dhh @spacexai @grok These are the real questions

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

@dhh @spacexai @grok Omacrohardchy Maybe? Anyone?

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

@elonmusk @Ragini1Im This post is going to make a few heads explode

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

@thdxr Wait until you figure out what a smart contract is

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

@thdxr Just know you live rent free in my head everyday when using OC at work

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

@thdxr How about an Open Chode ?

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

@thsottiaux An ROI

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

@nicbstme The sad reality is most people don’t care and their lives aren’t complex enough to even need to use it.

That said back ground inference will be built into the products they do use.

@ThePrimeagen @bryan_johnson @dhh Omarchy is going to be running harder than ever

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

So what is a Grok Dot?

[Cody McDowell @cmcdowell03]

@Geiger_Capital It’s all about the hardware and infrastructure
