How about don't listen to anyone who says anything like this because they actually have no clue how it will play out and just because they do something something AI does not mean they have any experience accurately predicting the future of civilization and the arc of tech…

My final postdoc paper from the Golshani lab is finally out! How does inhibition regulate memory-encoding pyramidal sequences? We used kHz-rate voltage imaging of mouse CA1 PV & SST cells during a working memory task with odors. nature.com/articles/s4159…

I saw it firsthand at the #Lindau2025 Nobel Laureates meeting--international young scientists welcomed and recruited in Germany and elsewhere. Some of the very best are leaving, and many of the best will no longer come. wsj.com/politics/polic…
