The math on this project should mass-humble every AI lab on the planet.

1 cubic millimeter. One-millionth of a human brain. Harvard and Google spent 10 years mapping it. The imaging alone took 326 days. They sliced the tissue into 5,000 wafers each 30 nanometers thick, ran them through a $6 million electron microscope, then needed Google’s ML models to stitch the 3D reconstruction because no human team could process the output.

The result: 57,000 cells, 150 million synapses, 230 millimeters of blood vessels, compressed into 1.4 petabytes of raw data. For context, 1.4 petabytes is roughly 1.4 million gigabytes. From a speck smaller than a grain of rice.

Now scale that. The full human brain is one million times larger. Mapping the whole thing at this resolution would produce approximately 1.4 zettabytes of data. That’s roughly equal to all the data generated on Earth in a single year. The storage alone would cost an estimated $50 billion and require a 140-acre data center, which would make it the largest on the planet.

And they found things textbooks don’t contain. One neuron had over 5,000 connection points. Some axons had coiled themselves into tight whorls for completely unknown reasons. Pairs of cell clusters grew in mirror images of each other. Jeff Lichtman, the Harvard lead, said there’s “a chasm between what we already know and what we need to know.”

This is why the next step isn’t a human brain. It’s a mouse hippocampus, 10 cubic millimeters, over the next five years. Because even a mouse brain is 1,000x larger than what they just mapped, and the full mouse connectome is the proof of concept before anyone attempts the human one.

We’re building AI systems that loosely mimic neural networks while still unable to fully read the wiring diagram of a single cubic millimeter of the thing we’re trying to imitate. The original is 1.4 petabytes per millionth of its volume. Every AI model on Earth fits in a fraction of that.

The brain runs on 20 watts and fits in your skull. The data center required to merely describe one-millionth of it would span 140 acres.

We must remember that the Bible is not a book of rules, but a narrative of grace.

Not everything is an attack from Satan. Sometimes, it’s the natural consequence of our own sinful behavior.

[Shane Pruitt @shane_pruitt78]

Not everyone who dies "goes to a better place", only those who have been saved by Jesus do.

That's Biblical truth.

15 yr olds create their own brands on social media

16 yr olds are operating motor vehicles

17 yr olds have jobs

18 yr olds serve in the military

College students are starting businesses and non-profits

If they can handle those things, they can also handle serving the church.

When Jesus said "cut off your hand" and "pluck out your eye" to fight lust, He at least meant you should be willing to delete an app or get rid of a smartphone that leads you to sin.

[Gabriel Hughes @Pastor_Gabe]

If I find taught in the Bible that everything is foreordained, that is true. And if I find in another passage that man is responsible for his actions, that is true.

And it is only my folly that leads me to imagine that these two truths ever contradict each other.

—C.H. Spurgeon

[Paul David Tripp @PaulTripp]

The warnings that follow God’s commands are not angry threats. No, these warnings are an expression of his love and a tool of his protecting mercy.

"Seldom if ever do I leave the pulpit without a sense of partial failure, a mood of penitence, a cry to God for forgiveness, and a resolve to look to him for grace to do better in the future."

-John Stott

[Paul David Tripp @PaulTripp]

Isn't it amazing to know that God sees every bit of dirtiness in us and he doesn’t turn away in revulsion? He doesn't separate from us because we are unclean, he touches us so that we would be clean!

If you're single and desire to get married:

Don't look for someone who will "complete you", and put you first.

Look for someone who is already complete in Christ, and puts Jesus first.

There is no "Next John MacArthur."

There is no "Next Voddie Baucham."

There is no "Next Charlie Kirk."

God has never sent us duplicates of faithful Christians.

We get one of each.

This is God showing us that we do not depend on men.

We depend on Jesus.

And we have him!

[Shane Pruitt @shane_pruitt78]

The same Gospel that has been saving people for 2,000 years is still saving people today.

So share it.
