The Wright brothers' first flight covered 120 feet (37 m). The length of a Boeing 747–8 is twice that (249 feet / 76 m). Yet, a person could have witnessed the Kitty Hawk in 1903 and later flown on the first B747 in 1968, all within one lifetime. And their kid could now fly 50,357,612 feet (15,349,000 m) on a Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900ULR operating the SIN-JFK route. We've come a long way, baby

Amazing how some things can advance so much over a lifetime. I think we'll have similar stories that hopefully skynet will let our grandchildren read on their twenty minute labour break.

Speaking of Skynet, have you seen this? https://x.com/hosseeb/status/1834378405896401380

No, but that's terrifying. I hope we've fed these models enough pictures of fluffy cats to keep us safe for long enough to get into those underground chambers.

I can’t wait for someone to connect an AI to research instruments in a virology lab and tell it to explore gain of function on human hosts
