🤯 Midjourney -- yes, the AI image company -- just shipped a brand new type of imaging machine. 🤯

- 100x faster than an MRI.
- 10x cheaper.

Full body scanned in 60 seconds instead of an hour in a tube. Ultrasound based, MRI-level resolution.

And it's real -- not a concept, a working machine. You step into a shallow pool of warm water, a ring of half a million sensors sends sound through your body from every angle, and ~60 seconds later you have a 3D map of your insides down to a fraction of a millimeter. No radiation, no tube, no lying still.

They're not even building it as a hospital machine -- they're building a spa. The scan is a side-effect of a place you'd want to hang out anyway.

Lastly, it is built by 9 people. NINE PEOPLE.

You can just do things.

JUST IN: For the first time in US history, solar produced more electricity than coal in a calendar month.

Solar is the future.

@BoringBiz_ OK, but there is zero context here. What do the apps actually do? Are they solving pain points consumers currently have—and in a faster, more valuable, or cheaper way than other apps on the market?

Until those questions are answered, these takes are moot.

@archer_rs Ha!

@accuweather Ding dong driving too fast for conditions. Having said that, the car recovered like a champ. A non-Tesla likely would have been toast.

@sporadica Having just been, I can firmly vouch for the Isle of Skye which sits squarely in B. Properly unreal. 🏔️🌊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Having said that, I’m with you and can’t not pick E. 🌍
