Lately, there's been growing pushback against the idea that AI will transform geroscience in the short term.When Nobel laureate Demis Hassabis told 60 Minutes that AI could help cure every disease within 5–10 years, many in the longevity and biotech communities scoffed. Leading aging biologists called it wishful thinking - or outright fantasy.They argue that we still lack crucial biological data to train AI models, and that experiments and clinical trials move too slowly to change the timeline.Our guest in this episode, Professor Derya Unutmaz, knows these objections well. But he's firmly on Team Hassabis.In fact, Unutmaz goes even further. He says we won't just cure diseases - we'll solve aging itself within the next 20 years.And best of all, he offers a surprisingly detailed, concrete explanation of how it will happen:building virtual cells, modeling entire biological systems *in silico*, and dramatically accelerating drug discovery — powered by next-generation AI reasoning engines.

Google says we're not ready for AGI and honestly, they might be right. DeepMind's Demis Hassabis warns we could be just five years away from artificial general intelligence, and society isn't prepared. Um, yikes? VISIT OUR SPONSOR https://molku.ai/ In this episode, we break down Google's new “Era of Experience” paper and what it means for how AIs will learn from the real world. We talk agentic systems, long-term memory, and why this shift might be the key to creating truly intelligent machines. Plus, a real AI vending machine running on Claude, a half-marathon of robots in Beijing, and Cluely, the tool that lets you lie better with AI.  We also cover new AI video tools from Minimax and Character.AI, Runway's 48-hour film contest, and Dia, the open-source voice model that can scream and cough better than most humans. Plus: AI Logan Paul, AI marketing scams, and one very cursed Shrek feet idea.

Bird flu, which has long been an emerging threat, took a significant turn in 2024 with the discovery that the virus had jumped from a wild bird to a cow. In just over a year, the pathogen has spread through dairy herds and poultry flocks across the United States. It has also infected people, resulting in 70 confirmed cases, including one fatality. Correspondent Bill Whitaker spoke with veterinarians and virologists who warn that, if unchecked, this outbreak could lead to a new pandemic. They also raise concerns about the Biden administration's slow response in 2024 and now the Trump administration's decision to lay off over 100 key scientists. Demis Hassabis, a pioneer in artificial intelligence, is shaping the future of humanity. As the CEO of Google DeepMind, he was first interviewed by correspondent Scott Pelley in 2023, during a time when chatbots marked the beginning of a new technological era. Since that interview, Hassabis has made headlines for his innovative work, including using an AI model to predict the structure of proteins, which earned him a Nobel Prize. Pelley returns to DeepMind's headquarters in London to discuss what's next for Hassabis, particularly his leadership in the effort to develop artificial general intelligence (AGI) – a type of AI that has the potential to match the versatility and creativity of the human brain.  One of the most awe-inspiring and mysterious migrations in the natural world is currently taking place, stretching from Mexico to the United States and Canada. This incredible spectacle involves millions of monarch butterflies embarking on a monumental aerial journey. Correspondent Anderson Cooper reports from the mountains of Mexico, where the monarchs spent the winter months sheltering in trees before emerging from their slumber to take flight.

Parmy Olsen, author of “Supremacy - AI, ChatGPT and the race that will change the world,” joins us to discuss how tariffs might affect the AI race, and two of the central figures in the AI world, Demis Hassabis and Sam Altman.

How can AI help us understand and master deeply complex systems—from the game Go, which has 10 to the power 170 possible positions a player could pursue, or proteins, which, on average, can fold in 10 to the power 300 possible ways? This week, Reid and Aria are joined by Demis Hassabis. Demis is a British artificial intelligence researcher, co-founder, and CEO of the AI company, DeepMind. Under his leadership, DeepMind developed Alpha Go, the first AI to defeat a human world champion in Go and later created AlphaFold, which solved the 50-year-old protein folding problem. He's considered one of the most influential figures in AI. Demis, Reid, and Aria discuss game theory, medicine, multimodality, and the nature of innovation and creativity.

Two pioneering tech companies and their CEOs are competing over the development of artificial intelligence: Sam Altman of OpenAI and Demis Hassabis of DeepMind. Lost in this race for control are the threats their creators are ignoring. That's the story found in “Supremacy: AI, ChatGPT, and the Race that Will Change the World” by Parmy Olson.

This week Nick talks to Parmy Olson. Parmy Olson is a prominent technology journalist and author, currently a columnist for Bloomberg Opinion. She previously covered tech and innovation for The Wall Street Journal and Forbes, with a focus on AI, robotics, and emerging technologies. In 2012, she published We Are Anonymous, an acclaimed deep dive into the hacker groups Anonymous and LulzSec. Her 2024 book, Supremacy: AI, ChatGPT, and the Race That Will Change the World, explores the rivalry between tech giants like OpenAI and DeepMind in the pursuit of artificial general intelligence, earning the Financial Times Business Book of the Year Award. Nick and Parmy discuss the intense race to develop artificial general intelligence (AGI) and the far-reaching implications of that pursuit. Their conversation highlights the contrast between the idealistic visions of DeepMind's Demis Hassabis and OpenAI's Sam Altman—who saw AGI as a force for solving global challenges—and the reality that both ultimately became deeply tied to tech giants like Google and Microsoft to fund their ambitions. Parmy explains how this reliance shifted the focus away from social good and towards corporate interests. Together, they explore the broader consequences of this power shift, including the lack of meaningful regulation, ongoing ethical concerns around bias and safety in AI models, and the growing dominance of a few large tech firms. They also reflect on the social risks—from job losses and the disruption of traditional career paths to the emotional dependency people are beginning to form with chatbots—raising important questions about the kind of future society is heading towards.

Shoot us a Text.Today is our fearless leader Paul J Daly's birthday! So we gave him the morning off and tapped in producer Nathan Southwick. We're talking all about the new Canada and Mexico tariffs that put pressure on the automotive supply chains, plus the top depreciating cars and how Google is pushing to achieve artificial general intelligence.Show Notes with links:The U.S. has enacted 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, throwing the highly integrated North American production network into turmoil.The tariffs, effective today, March 4, apply to all imports except Canadian energy products, which face a lower 10% duty. Canada and Mexico both responded with their own tariffs.Industry experts predict vehicle prices could rise between $4,000 and $10,000, with Ford CEO Jim Farley cautioning that prolonged tariffs could "blow a hole in the U.S. industry that we have never seen."Flavio Volpe, president of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association said that there is potential for U.S. and Canadian auto production to revert to "2020 pandemic-level idling and temporary layoffs within the week.”Key auto models at risk include the Toyota RAV4, Ford Mustang Mach-E, Chevrolet Equinox and Blazer, and the Honda Civic and CR-V, while European automakers with manufacturing in Mexico, including Volkswagen, Stellantis, and BMW, saw their stocks drop sharplyThe STOXX Europe 600 Automobiles and Parts index fell 3.8% and Continental AG, a major supplier, saw an 8.4% drop in shares.Used Tesla Model 3 and Model Y vehicles saw the steepest depreciation of any cars in 2024, according to Fast Company's analysis of CarGurus data.Model Y prices dropped 25.5%, while Model 3 prices fell 25% from January 2024 to January 2025.Comparatively, the Nissan Maxima only dropped 5.2%, and the Ford Mustang declined 5%.Full Top 10: Tesla Model Y, Tesla Model 3, Land Rover Range Rover, Jeep Wrangler 4xe, Chevrolet Express Cargo, Ford Transit Connect, RAM ProMaster, Land Rover Range Rover Sport, Chevrolet Bolt EV, and Ford Expedition, all with over 19% depreciationGoogle co-founder Sergey Brin is back and pushing Google DeepMind (GDM) teams to accelerate their progress toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). In a newly released memo, Brin outlines the urgency and expectations for Google's AI teams.Brin emphasizes the need for 60-hour work weeks, daily office attendance, and faster execution by prioritizing simple solutions, code efficiency, and small-scale experiments for faster iteration.He calls for a shift away from “nanny products” and urges teams to “trust our users” more.Brin, who has no formal role at Google beyond a board seat, stepped in over the head of Google DeepMind, Demis Hassabis, signaling the urgency of the AGI race."I think we have all the ingredients to wHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop speaks with Andrew Altschuler, a researcher, educator, and navigator at Tana, Inc., who also founded Tana Stack. Their conversation explores knowledge systems, complexity, and AI, touching on topics like network effects in social media, information warfare, mimetic armor, psychedelics, and the evolution of knowledge management. They also discuss the intersection of cognition, ontologies, and AI's role in redefining how we structure and retrieve information.

Without enough engaged participants, even well-designed social networks struggle to sustain themselves, and individuals migrate to spaces where meaningful conversations persist. This explains why Twitter remains dominant despite competition and why smaller, curated communities can be more rewarding but difficult to scale.Information Warfare and the Need for Cognitive Armor – In today's digital landscape, engagement-driven algorithms create an arena of information warfare, where narratives are designed to hijack emotions and shape public perception. The only real defense is developing cognitive armor—critical thinking skills, pattern recognition, and the ability to deconstruct media. By analyzing how information is presented, from video editing techniques to linguistic framing, individuals can resist manipulation and maintain autonomy over their perspectives.The Role of Ontologies in AI and Knowledge Management – Traditional knowledge management has long been overlooked as dull and bureaucratic, but AI is transforming the field into something dynamic and powerful. Systems like Tana and Palantir use ontologies—structured representations of concepts and their relationships—to enhance information retrieval and reasoning. AI models perform better when given structured data, making ontologies a crucial component of next-generation AI-assisted thinking.The Danger of Illusions of Insight – Drawing from ideas by Balaji Srinivasan, the episode distinguished between genuine insight and the illusion of insight. While psychedelics, spiritual experiences, and intense emotional states can feel revelatory, they do not always produce knowledge that can be tested, shared, or used constructively. The ability to distinguish between profound realizations and self-deceptive experiences is critical for anyone navigating personal and intellectual growth.AI as an Extension of Human Cognition, Not a Second Brain – While popular frameworks like "second brain" suggest that digital tools can serve as externalized minds, the episode argued that AI and note-taking systems function more as extended cognition rather than true thinking machines. AI can assist with organizing and retrieving knowledge, but it does not replace human reasoning or creativity. Properly integrating AI into workflows requires understanding its strengths and limitations.The Relationship Between Personal and Collective Knowledge Management – Effective knowledge management is not just an individual challenge but also a collective one. While personal knowledge systems (like note-taking and research practices) help individuals retain and process information, organizations struggle with preserving and sharing institutional knowledge at scale. Companies like Tesla exemplify how knowledge isn't just stored in documents but embodied in skilled individuals who can rebuild complex systems from scratch.The Increasing Value of First Principles Thinking – Whether in AI development, philosophy, or practical decision-making, the discussion emphasized the importance of grounding ideas in first principles. Great thinkers and innovators, from AI researchers like Demis Hassabis to physicists like David Deutsch, excel because they focus on fundamental truths rather than assumptions. As AI and digital tools reshape how we interact with knowledge, the ability to think critically and question foundational concepts will become even more essential.

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was shared by three researchers who used artificial intelligence to predict the three-dimensional shapes of proteins based on their amino acid sequences. In this episode, we hear from one of them, Demis Hassabis, CEO and co-founder of Google DeepMind. His AI program, AlphaFold, curates the 3D-structures of more than 200 million naturally-occurring proteins (https://alphafold.ebi.ac.uk/). This database is available to the public for free! After a brief introduction to the topic, we hear Dr. Hassabis's Nobel lecture on how he got involved in this groundbreaking research, and how he sees AI impacting biology in the future.

On the 49th episode of Enterprise AI Innovators, hosts Evan Reiser (Abnormal Security) and Saam Motamedi (Greylock Partners) talk with Vineet Khosla, Chief Technology Officer of The Washington Post. The Washington Post is the third-largest newspaper in the United States, with 135,000 print subscribers and 2 and half million digital subscribers. In this conversation, Vineet shares his thoughts on the mainstream integration of AI technology, the transformative impact of AI on journalism, and the future of personalized news delivery. Quick hits from Vineet:On proof that AI is having a true impact on our lives: “The Nobel Prize for Physics went to Geoffrey Hinton. The Nobel Prize for chemistry went to Demis Hassabis, the deep mind. This is the first time we’re seeing the top prize in physics and chemistry go to people who created an AI which solved a problem in that field. It is the AI they invented that did such a commendable job that other people were forced to recognize their achievement as being top notch.”On the impact AI has on human creative roles: “So when these AI models start to be creative, it is understandable everyone's afraid. Let's put that as the baseline and say this is not wrong. It doesn't make anybody bad. But slowly and the way we're doing it with creative tools is that we want AI to do the part of your job that you shouldn't have been doing anyways, and you start to see a change in people's behavior, their hearts and minds. And of course, some people will move faster than others. But when they see the actual benefit, the skeptics will come around and use it to their power.”On encouraging Productivity and creativity through AI tools: “You give people these tools, let them be productive, let them go on their journey,  and you encourage them. You obviously give really good use cases. Like I said, when I was writing code recently, I got the AI to write me most of my unit tests because as an engineer, I hate that. And I know they're super important. There is no way I will check in code without it, but I hate writing them.

For years, artificial intelligence companies have heralded the coming of artificial general intelligence, or AGI. OpenAI, which makes the chatbot ChatGPT, has said that their founding goal was to build AGI that “benefits all of humanity” and “gives everyone incredible new capabilities.”Google DeepMind cofounder Dr. Demis Hassabis has described AGI as a system that “should be able to do pretty much any cognitive task that humans can do.” Last year, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said AGI will arrive sooner than expected, but that it would matter much less than people think. And earlier this week, Altman said in a blog post that the company knows how to build AGI as we've “traditionally understood it.”But what is artificial general intelligence supposed to be, anyway?Ira Flatow is joined by Dr. Melanie Mitchell, a professor at Santa Fe University who studies cognition in artificial intelligence and machine systems. They talk about the history of AGI, how biologists study animal intelligence, and what could come next in the field.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

Terminamos nuestro repaso a los premios Nobel de ciencias, como siempre, con el galardón de Química, que este año ha sido todo lo contrario de una sorpresa. Se lo han llevado tres de los candidatos más firmes: David Baker, "por diseñar nuevas proteínas mediante ordenador", y Demis Hassabis y John Jumper, "por sus métodos para predecir la estructura tridimensional de las proteínas". Jumper y Hassabis son los responsables de que exista AlphaFold, una inteligencia artificial de la que hemos hablado más de una vez en La Brújula, y que fue la primera en predecir la forma tridimensional de una proteína a partir de su secuencia de aminoácidos. Esto ha supuesto una revolución para la bioquímica, porque la secuencia de aminoácidos de las proteínas podemos "leerlas" en el ADN, y gracias a programas como éste ahora podemos pasar de "la letra" a "el objeto". Baker, por su parte, es uno de los padres de las técnicas informáticas para el estudio de proteínas, y es responsable de RoseTTAFold, el "competidor" de AlphaFold, que aunque llegó un poco más tarde también está siendo parte de esta revolución. En el programa de hoy repasamos muy rápido la relevancia de estas investigaciones, pero si queréis aprender más sobre ellas podéis volver a escuchar los capítulos s08e16 y s10e17 de este pódcast. También podéis buscar el episodio s05e10 de nuestro pódcast hermano, Aparici en Órbita. En todos ellos os hablamos de estas inteligencias artificiales en mucho más detalle. Este programa se emitió originalmente el 9 de octubre de 2024. Podéis escuchar el resto de audios de La Brújula en la app de Onda Cero y en su web, ondacero.es

Parmy Olson is a Bloomberg Opinion columnist covering technology regulation, artificial intelligence, and social media. Her new book, Supremacy: AI, ChatGPT, and the Race that Will Change the World tells a tale of rivalry and ambition as it chronicles the rush to exploit artificial intelligence. The book explores the trajectories of Sam Altman and Demis Hassabis and their roles in advancing artificial intelligence, the challenges posed by corporate power, and the extraordinary economic stakes of the current race to achieve technological supremacy.

It's the race that will change the world. In Supremacy, one of the FT's six short-listed best business book of the year, Bloomberg columnist Parmy Olson tells the story of what she sees as the key battle of our digital age between Sam Altman's OpenAI and Demis Hassabis' DeepMind. Altman and Hassabis, Olson argues, are fighting to dominate our new AI world and this war, she suggests, is as much one of personal style as of corporate power. It's a refreshingly original take on an AI story which tends to be reported with either annoyingly utopian glee or equally childish dystopian fear. And Olson's narrative on our brave new AI world is a particularly interesting take on the future of Alphabet, DeepMind's parent corporation, which, she suggests, might, in the not too distant future, have Demis Hassabis as its CEO.Parmy Olson is a Bloomberg Opinion columnist covering technology regulation, artificial intelligence, and social media. A former reporter for the Wall Street Journal and Forbes, she is the author of We Are Anonymous and a recipient of the Palo Alto Networks Cyber Security Cannon Award.

Our guest in this episode is Parmy Olson, a columnist for Bloomberg covering technology. Parmy has previously been a reporter for the Wall Street Journal and for Forbes. Her first book, “We Are Anonymous”, shed fascinating light on what the subtitle calls “the Hacker World of LulzSec, Anonymous, and the Global Cyber Insurgency”.But her most recent book illuminates a set of high-stakes relations with potentially even bigger consequences for human wellbeing. The title is “Supremacy: AI, ChatGPT and the Race That Will Change the World”. The race is between two remarkable individuals, Sam Altman of OpenAI and Demis Hassabis of DeepMind, who are each profoundly committed to build AI that exceeds human capabilities in all aspects of reasoning.Selected follow-ups:Parmy Olson, BloombergSupremacy: AI, ChatGPT, and the Race that Will Change the WorldAI Superpowers: China, Silicon Valley and the new world order - book by Kai-Fu LeeThe Coming Wave - book by Mustafa SuleymanBromance Gone Sour: OpenAI and Microsoft's Partnership Hits a Rough Patch - GeekflareFor our Posterity - essay by Leopold AschenbrennerOpenAI appoints Retired U.S. Army General Paul M.

Evitar que un asteroide choque contra la Tierra es el objetivo de un proyecto conjunto de NASA y ESA. Hace dos años, la sonda DART impactó contra el asteroide Dimorphos para modificar su órbita alrededor de otra roca de mayor tamaño, Dydimos. Ahora, la misión Hera viaja rumbo al asteroide para estudiar a fondo los resultados de aquel impacto. Hemos entrevistado al catedrático de física de la universidad de Elche Adriano Campo Bagatin, participante en este proyecto. Esta semana ha sido la de los Nobel. El de Medicina o fisiología ha sido para los estadounidenses Victor Ambros y Gary Ruvkun por descubrir los microARNs, una diminuta clase de moléculas que constituyen un mecanismo esencial para controlar los genes. El de Física ha distinguido al estadounidense John J. Hopfield y al británico Geoffrey E. Hinton, pioneros de las redes neuronales que sentaron las bases de la Inteligencia Artificial. Y el de Química ha reconocido a los estadounidenses David Baker y John M. Jumper y al británico Demis Hassabis por aplicar la computación y la Inteligencia Artificial para conocer la estructura tridimensional de las proteínas a partir de la secuencia de sus aminoácidos y predecir cómo será esa estructura con la secuencia deseada. Verónica Fuentes nos ha informado que destaca la importancia de la genética en la longevidad, mayor que las dietas bajas en calorías. Álvaro Martínez del Pozo ha dedicado su sección a la bilivedina, una molécula derivada del catabolismo de la hemoglobina de la sangre, que proporciona el color verde a la bilis de los herbívoros, de las aves y de los animales de sangre fría. Con Fernando de Castro hemos hablado de la capacidad que tiene el cerebro para remodelarse y adaptarse a nuevas situaciones provocadas por traumas o enfermedades. El doctor Pedro Gargantilla nos ha explicado como el trasplante de órganos encuentra ecos sorprendentes en la mitología, donde dioses, héroes y criaturas fantásticas se enfrentan a la muerte a través de la renovación y el intercambio de partes del cuerpo. Escuchar audio
