Calling on all scientists to call out hype, grift & BS when u see it. If u don't, u risk anti-science grifters leveraging overhyped & underdelivered promises & shoddy science to destroy public trust in the enterprise. Keep science & science comm grounded & truthful.

“I’m not saying science should be defunded and placed in the hands of predatory billionaires! I’m just saying science is completely corrupt and dysfunctional and defunding it will be awesome! Why are people misrepresenting me!?” Evidence to contrary: “So what!?” Standard.

Babak is not on X, so I’m gonna take it upon myself to hype him up and the great work that he is doing… bringing diagnostics and liquid biopsies into the AI age.

Yesterday our co-founder and CSO Babak Alipanahi presented at the Biotech-Pharma Statistics Workshop (BBSW) about the powerful combination of AI and cell-free RNA to detect early-stage lung cancer in the blood. Thank you to BBSW for this opportunity to share how AI outperforms…

The people have spoken! We're doubling the number of free credits for edu users to 1300, enough for six Kosmos runs + a bunch of agent runs. These expire after a month, so use them before they run out! Also, we are announcing a satisfaction guarantee. If your Kosmos run doesn't…

Deep learning is not a collection of black-box tricks, contrary to what many believe. It can be learned as a principled engineering discipline. This latest edition of Deep Learning with Python is my best attempt so far at teaching it. It focuses on building deep intuition -- the…

It’s amazing—I’m quite surprised!—how much LLM reasoning has improved in 2025. Main message: current top models—GPT-5, Grok 4, Gemini 2.5 Pro—are way better vs GPT-4o or Llama 3. A careful—even skeptical—formal proof eval by K Arkoudas & @s_batzoglou. aclanthology.org/2025.findings-…

New at EMNLP: PROOFGRID evaluates AI reasoning via formal proofs—can models write, check, and edit proofs? In one year we see striking gains: today’s top systems far surpass last year’s.

Dave Ricks has been at @EliLillyandCo for 20% of its 150-year history. He came to the pub, poured his own Guinness, and gave us a 2-hour state of the pharma union: drug prices, clinical trials, patent clocks, the rise of generics, Chinese peptides, compounding pharmacies, the US…

Who imposed tariffs? Who cut immigration, destroying the ag workforce? Who undermined the Fed? Who halted renewable energy? Who's running deficits?

Mike Johnson: "That's the reason the inflation is up, the cost of living is up so high -- because of the policies of the previous administration. Now, we're working to root those policies out and implement our own, but it takes a little time."

🚨 🚨 The most extensive, recent and up-to-date form of evidence that we have shows: NO LINK between maternal acetaminophen (paracetamol) use and Autism or ADHD in children.

No clear evidence to support any link between maternal acetaminophen (Tylenol) intake and autism or ADHD in offspring, a new umbrella systematic review @bmj_latest

Multimodal masking provides a unified approach. Nona operates on both DNA sequence and functional genomics tracks. Task-specific masking configurations recover familiar model types, and its flexibility enables entirely new approaches! 2/

Introducing Nona! 🧬 @suragnair 's brilliant idea to unify siloed genomic AI. Nona learns jointly from DNA seq + functional data, enabling new ways of modeling genomic data!

Excited to share Nona: a unifying multimodal masking framework for functional genomics. Models for DNA have evolved along separate paths: sequence-to-function (AlphaGenome), language models (Evo2), and generative models (DDSM). Can these be unified under a single paradigm? 1/15
