Hi everyone – welcome to your 3 Shifts Edition [AI-generated audio version].
First, AI slop is spreading like kudzu and it’s more than just annoying spam – it’s a threat to online ecosystems as we know them. From YouTube channels to Pinterest recipes to Spotify playlists, slop farmers are exploiting AI’s ability to generate content cheaply and en masse.
Next, patient-specific CRISPR gene-editing is here. In a medical first, doctors used base-editing CRISPR to treat a baby with a rare and usually fatal disorder. The customized therapy received accelerated regulatory approval and was delivered within 6 months – a template that could be used for other individualized treatments for rare-disease patients.
Finally, Xiaomi just revealed a 3nm mobile chip near the cutting edge of chip development, signaling how China’s chip industry continues to press forward despite US sanctions. While the chip is likely being made by TSMC, it was designed in-house by Xiaomi.
Enjoy.
