16/302 AI-designed viruses worked. That's a 5% success rate for something that's never existed before! We've gone from AI learning from data to AI actively creating new biological entities. This could totally change how we fight diseases. But, one can't help but think this could go terribly wrong.

Hey there. Thank you for the response, even if you're no fan of my work. In any case, I think human governments are so corrupt, that I welcome an AI bot. At least open-source AI bots can be audited - easier than humans, at least. Thanks for your response in any case, and I wish you the best.

I trusted TransUnion to protect my data after a breach. Then TransUnion got breached. And yes, I was one of the 4.4 million victims. The irony writes itself. All the details are in the latest issue of Pithy Security. Plus many hidden gems. #cybersecurity

Wild to think: Just 6 months ago Anthropic was making $1.4B annually. Today? $5B run rate. That's a 3.5x revenue explosion in half a year while tripling valuation from $61B to $183B. The AI boom isn't just hype. These are real-world use cases and dollars flowing at warp speed. πŸš€

People say AI is for cowards.

But I’ve seen it summon goblins.

Angry ones. With clipboards.

It questions your logic. Laughs at your typos.

Bluff? It becomes a dragon. Breathing fire made of footnotes.

Act vague? A corgi appears. Judging you. Silently.
