Scientists are getting very close to bringing a few iconic species, like woolly mammoths and dodos, back from extinction. That may not be a good thing.
Fun fact: faster computers allowed tokamak reactors to get a net positive power output, because it allowed them to quickly optimize the magnetic containment field.
I remember reading about this in 5th grade. 25 fucking years ago. I’ll believe it when I see it…
just like nuclear fusion, it was 10 years away 10 years ago, it’s 10 years away now and it will be 10 years away 10 years from now
But now we have AI! Both and many more problems will be solved any time now…
You know what AI needs the most long term? Nuclear fusion…
