Love our @midjourney partnership.
40 $BFLY Ultrasound-on-a-Semiconductor chips + Midjourney AI Genius + $NVDA GPUs.
This is @ButterflyNetInc Powered by Butterfly program (remember @intel inside :)).
Midjourney announces the world’s first full-body ultrasound CT scanner
• Goal is to bring affordable full-body imaging to everyone on Earth
• Users are submerged in water during the scan
• Creates detailed 3D body maps in under a minute
• Can map more than 25 organs and anatomical structures in detail
• No radiation is used
• Working with the FDA for approvals on diagnostic use
• Plans to bring the tech to market by the end of 2027

CancerBench: the frontier model cancer cure benchmark.
AI lab CEOs keep talking about curing cancer, so I made a benchmark.
One metric: how many types of cancer has your model cured?
All models are currently tied at zero.
It’s time to hillclimb!

⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️ WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
EXTREMELY GRAPHIC IMAGERY
What you’re about to see was filmed by the perpetrators themselves. You’ll see interrogations of the terrorists followed immediately by footage they admit to in their testimony.
Do not look away. We must all be witness to it to ensure we never allow it to be repeated again.
It’s never easy sharing October 7 footage, but it’s vitally important to remember, to understand what Hamas and thousands of Gazan civilians actually did on that day.
⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️ WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
EXTREMELY GRAPHIC IMAGERY
I won’t share the 40 minute raw footage again, for now. This is just 3 minutes of footage that already shows some of the horrific and depraved atrocities they committed against innocent unarmed civilians. Babies. Children. Women. The elderly. Nobody was spared. Even the dogs were slaughtered brutally.
⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️ WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
EXTREMELY GRAPHIC IMAGERY
They beheaded many. They raped many. They burned people alive, using accelerants to leave barely the ashes. They dismembered bodies. Shot people at close range then crushed their heads and bodies.
This is what the pro Palestine Jew haters march in support of. This is what celebrities and singers and podcasters defend and call to be repeated. If Hamas had their way, every Jew would have been wiped out. They’re unapologetic. They enjoyed it. Took pride in it. Celebrated it. And yet all we hear from western politicians is calls for Israel to show restraint. Condemnation of how we defend ourselves from those who want to do it again and again.
⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️ WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
EXTREMELY GRAPHIC IMAGERY
Never forget. We won’t ever forget. We won’t ever forgive. The world can scream and shout whatever they like. We will do whatever is necessary to ensure it can never happen again.
You can see the Hamas terrorist hesitate at the end of the video before he shoots the young woman.
This is the evil of October 7th.
This is the evil Israel is fighting.
@HAIM__GOZALI She’s a great example: The Dunning-Kruger Effect is a mental bias where people with low skill or little knowledge in an area think they are much better than they actually are.
The informativeness of a chest X-ray decoded by AI
In this multimodal AI model called Oncoformer of 3.67 million individuals of EHR plus chest X-ray, cancer was predicted at least 1 year before diagnosis: AUROC all cancers 0.869, cervical cancer 0.905, colon cancer 0.896 @CellCellPress open-access

I did not know this. Olivia Newton-John's grandfather was a Jewish Nobel Prize-winning physicist and friend of Einstein who escaped from Nazi Germany h/t
@phalpern
Her grandfather was respected physicist and mathematician Max Born, and much of his acclaim came after he fled the Nazis during the rise of Adolf Hitler. Though he doesn't have the name recognition today that his famous granddaughter has, he was celebrated during his lifetime for his work in the development of quantum mechanics and even won the 1954 Nobel Prize in Physics.
Elsewhere in Don't Stop Believin', Newton-John wrote that her grandfather was close friends with Albert Einstein. While her mother was a young girl, Newton-John said Einstein "spent many evenings in her family house playing violin while my grandfather played piano."
"In 1933, my Jewish grandfather fled from Germany with his wife, Hedwig, to escape Hitler's regime," she wrote. "He was not only a brilliant mind but also a humanitarian who helped Jews escape Germany. I'm extremely proud of my peace-loving grandfather."

In light of the progress in mathematics, we at Edison Scientific and FutureHouse have assembled a set of Millennium Problems for Biology. They are chosen to be very hard to solve but very easy to validate in a simple laboratory environment. Any of these, if solved, would mark a major advance in biotechnology, and most of them would contribute materially towards curing disease. These are, in some sense, the “last reasonable eval” for AI in biology. This was work primarily by @MichaelaThinks and myself, with contributions from many others.
Short descriptions below. The full descriptions of the problems with acceptance criteria are at the Bio Millennium Problems website, linked in the next post. Share more if you have ideas. If they meet our criteria, we’ll add them to our list (with attribution and permission).
On Yom Kippur in 1965, The Great Sandy Koufax declined to pitch Game 1 of the World Series as it fell on Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement.
He returned to win the series for the Dodgers, received the Most Valuable Player Award, and was named Sportsman of the Year.

🇺🇸 One of the greatest flying stories ever told
His spaceship’s brain died 100 miles above Earth. So he became the spaceship.
May 16, 1963. Gordon Cooper was alone in Faith 7 — a metal capsule barely larger than a phone booth — circling the planet at 17,500 miles per hour. Twenty-two orbits. Then the warnings started.
A faulty sensor said the capsule was falling. It wasn’t. He switched it off.
Then a short circuit killed the automated guidance system. The system that kept the ship oriented. The system that was supposed to bring him home.
Come in too shallow and the capsule skips off the atmosphere into the void. Come in too steep and it burns. The margin was fractions of a degree. Every computer built to hit that margin was dead.
Cooper didn’t panic.
He drew reference lines on his window with a grease pencil.
He lined them up with the horizon. He used the stars he had memorized before launch. He set his wristwatch.
He did the math in his head. Held the angle by eye. And when the moment came, he fired the retrorockets himself.
The sky turned to fire. Plasma cut all communication. No radio. No radar. Just a man inside a fireball, trusting a pencil, a watch, and the stars.
Then the parachutes opened.
Faith 7 splashed down in the Pacific four miles from the recovery carrier — the most accurate landing in the Mercury program.
The last backup system was never the software.
It was him. 🇺🇸🚀
He’s an idiot. As soon as he said “disproportional,” it was clear he was clueless and a fool. There are not two sides. The “Palestinians” are a death cult who’s barbaric acts have incited a worldwide resurgence of Nazism under the guise of “free Palestine” with the keffiyeh, the modern version of the Swastika.
...Recently, forty percent of college faculty admitted that they would vote against any Trump supporter seeking an academic position regardless of their scholarship. Keep in mind that this is only the professors willing to admit to such bias. https://t.co/nWaJ1stG2I
BOMBSHELL: Motaz Azaiza admits he filmed Israeli hostages being beaten in the streets of Gaza on October 7, and deliberately never published it, to protect the identities of the people beating them.
He did post other October 7 footage that day, celebrating the attack. He quietly deleted it later.
Azaiza is an influential "photojournalist" from Ghazza. TIME named him to the TIME 100. He was nominated for the 2024 Nobel Peace Prize. CNN, the Guardian and Sky all interviewed him.
Ms. Rachel Griffin-Accurso, who has 16 million subscribers, made a video for preschoolers introducing "my friend Motaz." She deleted it later.
Two weeks ago, he did a 3 hour and 38 minute interview in Arabic.
He made a number of EXTRAORDINARY admissions.

Most people are wrong here. It IS actually possible to communicate between two airgapped computers with temperature changes, but the data transfer rate is too slow (1-8b/hr) to be effective.
The underlying point Noam makes is true though: there are a deluge of crazy airgapped comms techniques like EM emanations from DRAM clocks that get a lot faster (300kbps).
This isn’t sci-fi. We vastly underestimate what AI can do with perfect knowledge of all of this literature.
