Great to see research continuing on this particular path.

I wonder if this team has considered making the electrodes out of silver? Robert O. Becker had great success accelerating the healing of bone tissue using similar methods. Seems like this would avoid any toxicity issues.

Good to see Robert O. Becker finally getting some recognition for a lifetime of work.

What if the more difficult to explain parts of the UAP phenomenon is our experience of the remnant of that previous civilization? It never went extinct, it just moved into space and the bottom of the oceans. We're ants, unaware of the civilization that surrounds us because it is to alien/advanced for us to comprehend.

I guess fMRI isn’t really a good analog. What is needed is an MRI quality video sequence showing movement. Dynamic planning would allow occlusal schemes to be designed more accurately, therefore avoiding many common issues with full arch rehab, for example.

No, but it’s a step closer. CBCT is the standard right now, but it has limitations like poor bone density measurement and no dynamic imaging.

An fMRI quality imaging system would allow dynamic planning for a full arch implant retained prosthesis, for example.

As a dental professional working with oral/maxillofacial surgery teams, I can’t wait for fMRI quality imaging in a portable affordable device. First to market with such systems will make a fortune.

Or, it’s a demonstration that AI output can be controlled in meaningful ways, period. Surely this supports openai’s stated goal of making safe AI?

Agree re simplicity. Ehang has been using what is essentially a consumer drone design for some time, and has demonstrated success with many flight tests. Although they aren’t using the most efficient design, I wouldn’t be surprised if they dominate the short range air taxi field.

Tesla is an infrastructure company. He’s building infrastructural components for Mars as much as Earth, for sure.

Quick question, please excuse my ignorance, but is there a way to extrapolate sequence from structure? In other words, can we design proteins and calculate the sequence required to make it?
