When cognition scales, matter wakes up. Michael Levin says every system that learns to pursue goals has a “cognitive lightcone,” the slice of reality it can care about. A bacterium tracks sugar. A human plans for centuries. Life is matter expanding what it can care about.

Michael Levin says aging may not just be a biology or physics problem. It’s a cognitive one. Almost like a boredom theory of aging. What happens when a system has nothing left to do?

David Sinclair says he is a co-author of a paper with an AI system. It did not just validate what the field already knew. It found a new way to model biological age. The argument that AI can never be creative is just human arrogance.

🚨 SENATOR MICHAEL BENNET (D) TO RFK: It DOESN'T MATTER what you come here and say. This is a job where it is life and d*ath for kids in our health care system. They are suffering. We can't deliver basic health care. It's too important for the games that YOU'RE playing.

a narcissistic parent does not care about anything but what a child can do for them & how that child makes them look. victor doesn’t care if the creature has a companion he only cares what it means in relation to HIM. what it says about him & how his societal value will decrease

Putting aside for a moment that this is a disgusting bloodthirsty rant, does the law matter at all? Do they care AT ALL about what the law says?

Michael Levin says your brain might not be the only thing in your body that's conscious. Organs like your liver pursue goals and solve problems. By the same standards we use to recognize minds, they qualify. He's using AI to build translators. Tools to ask the body what it wants. “We should be able to ask the liver questions about things it cares about.”

Trump can lie about health care for illegal immigrants all day long. But the cold, hard reality of hospitals closing, people losing their health care, & premiums more than doubling is going to be a wake-up call. Trump doesn't care about your health care or how much it costs.

Joscha Bach says consciousness is not a mysterious extra ingredient. It is a model of what it would be like if you existed. The self is virtual by definition. It can only run inside a system capable of simulation. This does not make it less real. It makes it substrate-dependent in exactly the way software is. The hard problem may not be hard. It may be a category error about where to look.

The secret to longevity is having meaningful work and meaningful relationships. I’ve found that both are required to sustain the energy to keep operating at a high level. That’s because you need a genuine, shared passion to make what you're doing as great as it can be. And you need to pursue that work with people you genuinely care about and who genuinely care about you. If you have those two things working in tandem, you have the basis for a life of continuous evolution, which is ultimately what longevity is all about.

Joe Mazzulla on what it says about him as a coach that the team plays hard and connected no matter who is playing: “It says nothing about me. It says everything about the team. They are the ones that have to go out and do it. It just proves that we have really good players. Proves that we have a system. Proves that we have a locker room that cares about winning.”

Eric Schmidt says the 10x advantage is no longer execution. It is defining what counts as success. A programmer writes a spec and an evaluation function, runs it at 7pm, and wakes up to what was invented overnight. The advantage now belongs to whoever can specify the problem precisely. The rest will be automated.
