Spent the last few days using Claude non-stop during an onsite interview for a member of technical staff position in bio-AI. Got a months worth of work done in 2 days… I didn’t realize how good these frontier models are and they’re only gonna get better from here, pretty stoked to get an opportunity to test models pre-release and generate data to make them better.

Love this, overview of the Barrow Scale, a sort of inverse of the Kardashev Scale. What do civilizations start to look like as they increase their mastery over the very small? https://youtu.be/QW_jlUn4gA8

Hi I'm Joy 💕 pfp

Started my classes for Masters in Biochemistry today. I actually had two lessons one in the morning and the other in the evening. It feels so good to be back in class I'm someone who enjoys reading and I'm happy to have my mind engaged for the next two years. I'm so proud of myself. My goal of curing cancer is happening...

Fascinating idea I'm trying to understand right now, from physicist Nicolas Gisin: what if physics doesn’t need numbers with infinitely many pre-existing digits? Using intuitionistic mathematics, numbers can be built progressively as time passes. The future isn’t infinitely encoded in the initial conditions, new information genuinely comes into existence. A very different way to think about determinism, relativity and quantum physics. Mind bending for me.

Really fun video about sperm whales. I feel like their natural iron cycling and phytoplankton boosting properties, and the fact that we nearly hunted them to extinction, should be more than enough justification to pursue iron seeding for geo engineering purposes, guilt free. There's a massive iron deficit in our oceans and it's probably one of the largest causes of runaway CO2 and global climate change. https://youtu.be/PCnQ-fpgJoc

who here wants to chat about Claude Science? and in general AI science, whether that be drug discovery or ultrasound imaging or something else

Just had a great call with a biotech startup based out of Boston doing some really cool work trying to convince me to move there and work for them. Not going to do that but am super tempted and might do some consulting on the side and see where it goes from there.

Took some Berkeley college students on a lab tour yesterday. It’s always fun to get young people excited about /science and the many ways /science can translate into real-world impact.
