Those who think climate change is a hoax, or isn't a hoax but isn't due to human activities, probably also think the sun still revolves around the earth. It's a good thing there are still truth-tellers in our era too. H/T @nationalacademies.org @sei.org kimbellard.medium.com/and-yet-it-m...

Synthetic biology is allowing scientists to create organisms never seen before on earth. The potential benefits are "endless." Unfortunately, so are the risks. 😲 @aparente.bsky.social @ctorgan.bsky.social @samillingworth.com @drmikebooth.bsky.social medium.com/@kimbellard/...

If you've been thinking about AI's potential for both immense benefits and great harm, you should also be thinking about the same for #syntheticlife. @synbiobeta.bsky.social @danielkraft.bsky.social @carlbergstrom.com medium.com/@kimbellard/...

Research on synthetic life is similar to AI in that it could yield immense benefits to society...or could destroy all life. We should tread cautiously. H/T @markpeplow.bsky.social @kateadamala.bsky.social @carlzimmer.com @mrclmb.bsky.social kimbellard.medium.com/synthetic-li...

One hope for 22nd century healthcare is that it is even less invasive. Recent advances like transcranial ultrasound stimulation instead of deep brain stimulation using electrodes, and electromechanical reshaping instead of Lasik may help point the way. 👏 medium.com/@kimbellard/...

Watch. This.

I should hope so.

We should be a LOT more worried about this than we are.

I'm probably not going to be around to see 22nd century healthcare, so I'm always of the lookout for hints of it. I profile two such examples. @danielkraft.bsky.social @rasushrestha.bsky.social @zaynakhayat.bsky.social @navinram.bsky.social medium.com/@kimbellard/...
