Journalist covering biotechnology for MIT Technology Review. Scoops about new methods in genetics and cell biology. The "playing God" beat. Gene editing, gene therapy, ancient DNA, synthetic embryos, cloning, etc.
yeah. Several topics on which Grok argues forcefully from evidence that isn't great.

Thanks for making the case. You are right it's a perennial candidate, but the Presidential sh*t coin takes it extra. What's the best factual coverage you've seen?

lol. great.

people are saying. but DOGE is not a technology per se. hard to shoehorn in, though Im open to ways

Yeah, we had "AI Slop" on the list last year. I hate Google's AI suggestions in particular, but are they are failure or actually Google's bold and successful move to self-disrupt search.

I think the matter at hand is not a prediction of ultimate IQ, but predicting which of two or more sibling embryos is likely to have higher IQ and by what degree.

Here's an archived copy of his article that gets you past the paywall. web.archive.org/web/20251021...
The astonishing embryo models of Jacob Hanna
Scientists are creating the beginnings of bodies without sperm or eggs. How far should they be allowed to go?

69.97% certain he's referencing something he heard from people with relevant expertise. IVF clinics have nothing if not aneuploid embryos at hand.

anyway, FYI, here is a person will billions in crypto proposing something (unspecified) about trisomy KO on the other site.

Right. I am not sure of the tactic, but you can see it's interesting to strategize how to get rid of a trisomy.

I see the figures thanks for the link.

My q has been: i rob(14;21) such as case? Based on the chart seems like if a carrier generated many embryos some would be unaffected?
September 25, 2025 at 1:38 PM
cool. evo theory. These robs are a potential target of CRISPR. Use it to shred the extra bit (in zygote i guess). Some seek a situation/justification where germline editing would be *necessary* to obtain a healthy embryo (i.e. can't be done via embryo selection).

thanks for posting. this is a very confusing phenomenon
