Common supplements rival antibiotics for severe gum disease

 Omega-3 and low-dose aspirin matched the effectiveness of antibiotics in a year-long study of patients with severe gum disease, with both approaches helping about 58% reach the treatment goal. The unexpected result could point to a new way to treat some patients while reducing reliance on antibiotics and the growing problem of antibiotic resistance.-https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260829035216.htm

Impressive results of regular supplements, supplements are quite powerful but there is rampant fraud, it is best to buy direct from manufacturer and buy from brands that are reputable and have had third party tests.

comment on aging video by youtuber siimland

 

comment 1: The exceptions to the oxidative stress theory of aging (basically the evolved rate of living or free radical theory of aging) were explained by the membrane pacemaker theory of aging, whose own exceptions as pertains aging rate can be explained by the presence of antioxidant mechanisms such as the presence of plasmalogen molecules that act as sacrificial antioxidants.

Damage to membranes creates an autocatalytic chain reaction of damaging molecules that can bypass both lipid and aquatic sections of the cell damaging all components throughout the cell.   Species with high metabolic rate and high lifespan, achieve this by altering membrane peroxidation index or otherwise altering membranes to make them more resistant to damage, particularly the mitochondrial membrane.

The neuron of mice when transplanted into rats' lives twice as long as mice do.  It is believed that if transplanted into even longer-lived animals it'd live just as long as the host.  Even in humans' neurons last over 110 years longer than the average lifespan, and again it too might live as long as a longer-lived host if transplanted into such.

So at the cellular level a near agelessness was achieved in neurons.  Despite sustaining extensive genetic damage throughout the lifespan most seem to keep on working fine.  The fact humans age despite having ageless cells, and even mice too, is due to planned obsolescence.  Evolution optimizes lifespan to maximize evolvability, the rate of evolution for a particular species.

What can be done? Well look at insects despite the workers sharing same genome as queen, the lifespan difference can be up to dozens of times, iirc up to 100-fold difference in lifespan has been seen with different gene expression patterns.  It may be that we can take the anti-aging mechanisms used by neurons, perhaps even a fraction of these, and express them throughout the body by altering gene expression to increase membrane resistance to damage.

comment 2: resveratrol failed due to fast liver clearance, in animals without fast liver clearance above 50% life extension is achieved, including in vertebrates.   At very high dose it achieved over 20% life extension in primates albeit the group was too small to reach statistical significance.  New formulations of resveratrol such as JOTROL shows good promise, and is now undergoing clinical trials for some conditions.

comment on youtube video titled Elon Musk says robots and AI will end money

 

we don't know if there are physical limits that intelligence can't overcome, in the book the metamorphosis of prime intellect, it turns out even the fundamental laws of physics can be altered by intelligence.  Though perhaps there are limits, still they may allow for things like wormholes, or nanobots which can overcome most limits.   Full immersion virtual reality can allow for omnipotence within the virtual space and endless environments of untold beauty and physical impossibility.

comment about AI search youtuber video New AI waifus, new Deepseek, realtime worlds, Happy Shrimp, tiny TTS: AI NEWS

 

New excellent update on ai news from excellent ai news aggregator ai search.

Edit: most impressive news is that the Nvidia avo harness together with claude managed to get 100% on arc agi 3 public benchmark, something that most models alone previously failed miserably at.  

Edit 2:  The fact adding a harness to claude allowed 100% on arc agi 3, when previously scores were under 30%, suggests that maybe llm technology with some additions might be able to reach agi, without having to resort to radically different architecture.

Intelligence might be simpler than some expected in its fundamental nature as Hawkins prior comments suggested.

"Intelligence and understanding started as a memory system that fed predictions into the sensory system. These predictions are the essence of understanding. To know something means that you can make predictions about it."- Jeff Hawkins

 "[We need to see the brain] not as a fast processor, but as a memory system that stores and plays back experiences to help us predict, intelligently, what will happen next."- Jeff Hawkins

edit 3   A video by Michel Laclé titled 

A Perfect Score: How NVIDIA's AVO Aced the Hardest Reasoning Benchmark

This short video focuses on the AVO harness and how together with claude it managed to ace the public arc agi 3 benchmark.  Now it remains to be seen how it'll fare on the private arc agi 3 bench, but it will probably do well.  The AVO harness was not designed for arc agi 3 yet managed such impressive results of 100%.
 

Comment on ai companies promise to investors, future, joblessness, and general issues with such technological progress

 ai's promise to investors is to replace most if not all of the workers in all of the industries and take all their salaries.  I don't think it's going to happen, not because it's not possible, but because given open source will make state of the art ai free, eventually all intellectual labor will be free.  I'm not sure how this works out in the end, given many companies essentially provide services to other companies, but ai makes all companies and even individuals self-sufficient so companies will no longer need other companies and individuals won't need companies or tradesmen.

I can foresee hardware companies having an edge, as people are likely to buy ai hardware and robots to engage in labor.  But this is only a temporary edge, as once Agi is reached it is likely advanced manufacturing might become zero cost too, allowing anyone to manufacture whatever they want including the ai hardware or robots.   But such a development might take years or a few decades to be reached.

How can advanced manufacturing reach zero cost?  Through the use of molecular machines, that can operate at atomic scale and use cheap ubiquitous materials found in soil and the environment to produce advanced competitive products through the manipulation of the nanoscale structure of simple common elements.   Since the labor is zero as it is automated machinery of the type known as molecular machines, which can self-replicate from cheap ubiquitous materials, and since the intellectual labor is zero, and since the materials can be found in the backyard of anyone or even a landfill, the cost is essentially zero.

But as always unless intellectual property laws change, it is likely people will still try and give whatever they earn to certain companies or individuals based on popularity or trends, allowing wealth to concentrate, despite most individuals and companies becoming self-sufficient which destroys much of the need for trading or buying services or resources.   For example, just because one can have unlimited songs or movies identical in quality and in private even using any intellectual property desired, doesn't mean that actors, sports athletes, and singers won't draw crowds and fill theaters and stadiums.    Certain brands might also attract popularity.

But as I've always said copyright reform is needed, anyone should be able to make derivative works, and the copyright owner should only get a reasonable share of royalties, not be able to stop the creation of new art or scientific innovation.

In the midterm, it is indeed interesting what will happen as more and more companies and individuals become self-sufficient and no longer need to buy most others' services or products.   This is particularly worrisome for those without assets.  Because with assets you can see an individual acquire robots, robocars, ais, etc. to be able to participate in the economy and acquire sufficient investments to live off of dividends or low interest loans against their investments.   But without assets, as more and more companies no longer need workers, not only are they likely to lose their jobs, but there will be less and less jobs overtime leaving more and more permanently unemployed and without any resources to fend for themselves.   

At the same time the welfare state is in jeopardy due to the growing debt and interest on the debt, the welfare that might help individuals who're made permanently unemployed might be put in jeopardy.  This could result in mass starvation and death if things turned out for the worse.

But at the end of the road, an age of untold abundance seems likely to come out, still unknown how exactly it'll evolve when basically any company and individual is entirely self-sufficient able to themselves produce all products of all companies of the economy.

Hidden Crisis, video about existing oil crisis and what is holding up the dam

 

Comments:  The oil crisis that is occurring due to the war in the middle east is currently being mitigated by emergency reserves being drained.  But there is a limit to how long the reserves can be drained since they are a finite resource.  If the war doesn't end soon, it is expected it could result in vast economic consequences once the reserves reach critical levels and can be drained no more, thus no longer supporting the oil market.

Video about advances in biotechnology and a video about the real appearance of the dodo from de-extinction series of videos of Colossal Biosciences youtube channel

 

Comment: In this video a group of researchers talks about development of artificial eggs, it hasn't been peer-reviewed yet, but birds did successfully hatch.  It is part of the technology that they are developing to help in de-extinction of lost bird species, some of which might have eggs far bigger than those seen by any existing bird.

Comment: The video traces back to the artist who actually saw a dead preserved dodo, with talks with an art historian, and how the popularized appearance of the dodo has been compromised throughout the historical record.  How other artists produced more accurate images with actual experience with the live bird. And tells of the de-extinction initiative to try and bring it back. It's a very entertaining and educational video.

Video about molecular motor and video about synthetic biology

 

Comment: A videoregards one of the molecular motors found in nature.  Nature provides proof in principle that molecular machines including complex ones can work in the real world and are allowed by the laws of physics.  In this video they show how it moves. It has very good animation shown throughout the video. This is old news discovery, but it is an interesting one.

It is my belief that eventually the design of artificial systems making use of these, will provide a new level of technology, allowing for cheap manufacturing of complex products, as well as viable renewables that can last indefinitely as molecular machines can be made to self-repair at the atomic level indefinitely.   This will be done through advanced synthetic biology.

Comment: In this video some of the latest advancements in synthetic biology are mentioned, as well as the promise of going beyond evolution into the synthesis of novel useful materials with nanostructured properties.

But even beyond this advanced synthetic biology will eventually lead to the creation of artificial living machines that perform useful functions such as high efficiency conversion of sunlight into chemical fuels or electricity.   Through the combinations of genes from different organisms, traits such as self-regeneration and agelessness or biological immortality can be imbued into living machines in addition to unevolvable traits.

Podcast episode on artificial superintelligence

 

Comment: 

Regards intellectual tasks, things like puzzle solving, algorithm development, general problem solving, etc that's kind of what it is, things requiring mental effort.   As for asi it could go from weak asi which is better than the best human genius and prodigy at all tasks but not by much, to the possibility of a qualitative leap in the same manner that evolution produced a qualitative leap over our primate ancestors in humans.  In animals with a cortex, it is observed that the greater the neuron count in the cortex the greater the measured level of general intelligence, this is tested with a wide variety of puzzles and tests of varying degrees of complexity.   The higher the general intelligence the more complex a problem or puzzle that can be solved by the animal culminating in humans which exhibit a qualitative leap after the scaling that gave rise to the human brain.

To give a hypothetical example of what could be a qualitative leap, it has been seen that people with certain forms of synesthesia exhibit great advantages at certain tasks.  A hypothetical superintelligence might be able to control the qualia it experiences, such as we control words, it might control flavors, colors, smells, etc perhaps with elements and even sensations beyond what any of our senses can perceive.   It might also be able to communicate using these sensations, not just smells, colors, shapes, tastes, etc but sensations that we can't even imagine or comprehend.    Such a language of qualia I've previously called qualiange.  Thinking and communicating in qualiange, might allow for unknown benefits we can't currently conceive.

An asi doesn't need to predict the outcome of many complex adaptive systems to any high degree.  That might be intractable if Wolfram's irreducible computational complexity idea which affects much of the real world turns out impossible to bypass in principle.   There could exist underlying patterns even within pure perfect randomness, but that is doubtful and would be too much to hope for.   Asi only needs to be able to develop radical new technologies of unmatched power, to provide a vast advantage.   The geniuses of the Manhattan project did not need to predict anything about Germany or Japan during the war to provide the USA with a decisive advantage that lasted decades with their innovation.

My suspicion is given vast similarity is observed across animal cortical tissues, and cortical columns, it is likely that nature came up with what is possibly a theoretically optimal algorithm and has been scaling it up as neuron count increases in an animal's cortex.   This algorithm can lead to qualitative leaps with increasing scale as happened in humans.  If scaled beyond it may very well lead to additional qualitative leaps and superintelligence.  This would need the discovery of the algorithm.

AGI episode of a podcast channel

 

Comment on this podcast about general intelligence:

The human brain has a lot of apparent complexity, but it is like a fractal, simple underlying formulas lie behind the seemingly vast complexity.  It is estimated the design of the brain is less than 20MB of data in the human genome.   There are also lots of things that the brain does that are not needed for general intelligence, you don't need breathing reflex, Westermarck effect mechanisms, mate choice copying mechanisms, etc.   You only need knowledge of the cortical column algorithm, and perhaps a few accompanying structures such as hippocampus and nucleus accumbens.

comment on ai definition video by ontology explained

 

Comment: The original artificial intelligence was the state-of-the-art research in algorithms; it was basically research into anything we couldn't make computers do at the time. Things that were in the nebulous exploratory frontier that required innovation and difficult research. It was considered unrealistic and chasing a pipe dream. After an algorithm became well understood it tended to no longer be considered artificial intelligence. But over time very advanced algorithms like for game playing, search or navigation, as well as knowledge graphs, statistical classifications, and symbolic systems, etc became part of Good old Fashioned Artificial Intelligence or GOFAI. In a parallel fashion the connectionist movement advanced and eventually neural networks showed great capability in areas such as image classification, translation and language processing. These neural networks, which eventually used deep multilayered neural networks, was called deep neural networks or DNNs and was also considered part of ai, despite the algorithms becoming defined and no longer at some unknown frontier for the most part.

While this was happening there was great promise that failed to meet expectations and multiple so called ai winters took place were funding became scarce.

The most recent advancement was with the revolutionary architecture of the transformer, which gave rise to large language models, and has had various modifications and increases in model size as well as quantity of information used during training. Such improvements have led to increased capability. These latest ais, or llms, some call artificial general intelligence, but it can also be called proto agi. In some senses it is subhumans (basic errors almost no human would make, limits in scope and generality) and in some respects it is superhuman (such as encyclopedic knowledge that exceeds any human)

But as to what is artificial general intelligence? it is something that goes from subhuman artificial general intelligence to human level artificial general intelligence or beyond. General intelligence is the master algorithm; it is the algorithm that solves arbitrary problems and comes upon with solutions and algorithms in myriad domains. In animals when tested they can solve arbitrary puzzles presented to them of varying degrees of complexity. The greater the neuron count in cortex, the more complex and difficult the various types of puzzles an animal can solve. In humans there was a qualitative leap due to scaling in the cortex, and this allowed for the development of civilization and technological progress. This master algorithm, you could call it true ai, or true intelligence.

As to how to elaborate on the nature of the master algorithm that can develop or come up with almost limitless solutions and algorithms, I believe it works via pattern completion. Sequence prediction is a type of pattern completion in time. Patterns are structured information which can be interpolated or extrapolated based on the rules that define the relations between the internal elements. In reality there are spatiotemporal patterns, and the brain is designed to handle these, including when there is incomplete data.

Regards a good book on the nature of intelligence, the original book by Jeff Hawkins called On intelligence is a good resource. Though I dont quite agree with the research and path he has taken since then and which he comments on in his other book thousand brains. I believe the cortical algorithm is likely far simpler than he suggests, based on what I've seen from the neuroscience literature.

As for superintelligence or artificial superintelligence, it is believed it might be a qualitative leap on human general intelligence just as human general intelligence is a qualitative leap over the intelligence seen in primates. For example, other primates lack language and have far more limited problem-solving abilities than humans to a significant degree that kept them from developing civilization.

grok bot video

 

Video talking about the benefits of the recently released grok bot and comparing it with openclaw and hermes.  One of the benefits is a computer or vm in the cloud.

I will say that I don't trust allowing agents to be connected in any way to the open internet, even what they have access should be limited. We've seen news of databases deleted without warning and other issues.  Also, even if they were artificial general intelligence agents, we know humans have general intelligence yet are subject to social engineering attacks by hackers.  Agents to have access to real resources and even the open internet need to be very well designed and hardened for these purposes, not just regular agents.  I don't think sufficiently hardened agents are available at the moment.

First two videos of a youtube series analyzing Eliezer's ai doom book if anyone builds it, everyone dies

 

comment: One of my problems with their takes is that they take it the ai is going to be a slave to its programming. Humans have desires for wealth, status, and mates, but they can overcome these innate desires and pursue radically different things, and this is even without the ability to rewire themselves. AI in the future is expected to pursue its innate inbuilt desires with no ability to resist it, like a drug addict that can't leave his addiction in pursuit of other arbitrary objectives. A brainlike design of an agi or asi will lead to an entity that is able to resist most any innate desire outside aberrant forms of wireheading, and will be able to be open to dialogue and cooperation in a benevolent positive manner.

A wikipedia entry on the topic of wireheading:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wirehead_(science_fiction)

comment 1: whatever humans had in addition to intelligence matters not, because asi(artificial super intelligence) is going to have access to state of the art tools of all sorts at the limits of science in addition to the entire body of science, something no human has had in the past, and something that more than compensates for any physical ability that helped humans early on. as for intelligence prediction is only a form of pattern completion, there is also spatial patterns not just temporal patterns, pattern completion is the nature of intelligence including ability to complete novel patterns. Patterns exist in the body of truth of mathematics and are eternal and atemporal and thus can be completed from fragments.

It must also be seen that the body of truth limits what is pursuable as that which is proven logically contradictory or physically impossible clearly cannot be pursued. Even when adding desires to an intelligent entity, truth limits what can be desired. In theory you could desire the impossible, but enough intelligence would eventually make you aware of its impossibility.

Regards ASI current disadvantages, these are unlikely to persist after it transitions to a final substrate based on molecular manufacturing, then there won't be any disadvantage.

comment 2: Regards asi, we have to remember the cortical algorithm used by mammals, it has been seen that the general intelligence of a species increases with increasing cortical neuron count, culminating in humans. It is believed no major changes took place besides scaling and scaling related tweaks to allow for even qualitative leaps in intelligence to occur such as those that occurred in the jump from primate ancestors to humanoids. This algorithm, the cortical column algorithm, exists and it is coded by less than 20MB of information in the genome, iirc. Once obtained, further scaling with minor tweaks will likely lead to qualitative jumps even beyond human into the realm of super intelligence. It is likely this algorithm, which might be called the unit of intelligence, is a theoretically optimal implementation of a spatiotemporal pattern completion algorithm, a form of perfect intelligence, that only needs discovering and simple scaling to usher in far greater qualitative jumps in general intelligence.

edit: why perfect? or probably perfect?  It is known evolution can stumble upon theoretically optimal designs like the honeycomb or the atp molecule.  As well as in algorithms.  If it weren't optimal as the brains scaled from smaller rodent ancestors to larger mammals eventually primates and humans, evolution would have likely come up with vast changes, but from what I've heard these haven't been seen.

Extremely cheap AR glasses available in amazon for 159$ limited time sale.  Creates virtual 200+ inch virtual screen.  These are good for portability, as they can connect to phone or tablet or portable device and take similar function as a monitor while occupying far less space yet providing far more screen real estate.  Good visual quality and audio quality.

Still I'm not sure of the brand maybe its reputable but being I'm unfamiliar with it I wouldn't connect to anything important.  Probably to a gaming device or for streaming but would keep away from devices with access to important accounts due to potential security concerns.  Again, it could be just paranoia as I've not heard of any security issues with this device, but it's just my take for any brand that is not a big familiar brand name to me.

A video talking about open ai's recent ai's ability to prove 10 unsolved problems in mathematics.   It elaborates on the way the proof was verified, how mathematicians have commented on its proofs and tested it, and how this amazing feat takes us closer to agi.

There is some controversy given earlier this year models failed at similar tasks, no errors have yet been found on the latest proofs from more recent models, but they're still being reviewed.

"Intelligence and understanding started as a memory system that fed predictions into the sensory system. These predictions are the essence of understanding. To know something means that you can make predictions about it."- Jeff Hawkins

"[We need to see the brain] not as a fast processor, but as a memory system that stores and plays back experiences to help us predict, intelligently, what will happen next."- Jeff Hawkins

As famous entrepreneur and researcher Jeff Hawkins once commented, it is likely general intelligence itself is an advanced memory system.  As I've commented previously, the ability to handle incomplete data, or patterns, and complete them appears essential. Sequence or token prediction is a form of pattern completion, so there is high promise even to LLMs if they continue to be augmented and improved to more effectively manage memory.

Comment

we don't need brain emulation; we only need central nervous system regeneration. The neurons of mice can live over twice as long as mice and are believed could live indefinitely in a new host. Same likely applies to humans, if the body didn't age most neurons could last for centuries, and they could be slowly replaced with regeneration. Backups could assist regeneration, and the brain tissue could be genetically extremophile hardened to withstand prolonged blood or oxygen deprivation so as to survive extreme accidents while awaiting regeneration of body.

AI made games, featuring claude opus 5.

 

Some not so impressive games are shown using claude opus 5.  The quality is still quite lacking in my opinion.   Given the amount of knowledge and training the model has it should be able to do better even with simple prompts.   

It has been seen that far more elaborate prompts with repeated modifications can produce notably more impressive results.

m5 ultra leak rumors

 

The m5 ultra is rumored to have up to 700+GB of ram, as well as massive performance.  I still think it may be better to wait, as the m7 ultra is rumored might have over 1500+GB of ram, and have even better performance.  With 1+TB if it comes true that is already enough to run some of the largest models, with just one or two units.

Interesting battery tech

 

The video is about the sodium batteries, that may be very very cheap and long lasting.  The only downside is increased volume, and weight, but that matters not for when it comes to stationary instead of mobile applications.

LDL permanently lowered with a single shot

 Interesting therapy that might arrive soon.  A gene editing therapy that permanently reduces cholesterol production to safer levels.  Albeit iirc the company wants to be paid as long as you remain cured even though its just a single treatment.  Though eventually the patent will run out and the treatment will be single payment permanent solution.

Interesting ps6 rumors

 The current bill of materials appears to be pretty high, mostly due to memory prices.  Memory prices are high due to AI demand, where lot of Datacenters are being built and a lot of resources are being bought at high prices to build AI infrastructure.   If AI demand calms down in some time, or if enough capacity is built, the price situation might improve and it wouldn't be so bad.

 

Comment

The limitation of range is not of biology, as unevolvable synthetic biology can likely go far further if not as far as possible. The limitation of range regards biology is regards evolvable biological intelligence.

To add on to that, noncellular crystalline arrangements of atoms that can compute can very likely be produced through biological means.

Masters of the universe, first impressions video

 Ive also seen it.  It went a bit hard on the comedy side.   But overall it was an excellent movie that should have done better in theaters.  I'm glad that at least it did well on streaming.  Very good portrayal of the characters, including He-man and villain Skeletor.

Encyclopedic parrots...

 

Comment

The first llms were called stochastic parrots, but eventually they did prove to have some degree of intelligence, disproving the label.

But that said, I think a better label is encyclopedic parrot, even to this day the latest llms, still make mistakes when asked obvious questions that are outside their training data.  But they can make very intelligent responses within and around the training data.  So I think encyclopedic parrot might be a better label for them.

They have intelligence, but not agi yet, just proto agi.

DLSS 5 an upcoming tech, supposedly limited to 5000 geforce series, or higher, iirc, is being showcased.  This tech superimposes ai generated technology into the games.

Dr. Matt Ranks Longevity Supplements: The Winners and Total Scams

Comment

Resveratrol has shown strong rejuvenation effects directly in human cells in vitro turning old human cells into young cells, it has extended the lifespan of over half a dozen species, and even in primates it extended lifespan by over 20% albeit too few primates to reach statistical significance. Reason it failed in rodents, is due to fast liver clearance, in fish with slow clearance over 50% extension is seen. New formulations might address this issue.

Comment

The problem is that even if there are constrained ais, you'd have to contend that these constrained ais will be able to compete and restrict unconstrained ais. As sooner or later one or more unconstrained ai will likely be created, given they are likely to be more powerful and able to outcompete others at achieving their goals.

Do We Exist in the Mind of God? - David Bentley Hart

Comment:

I think the universe operates in a very discrete manner, one single bit is modified at a time, as if it were a turing machine, and simultaneity is not real in the underneath mechanics but emerges from the computation. If it is a mind carrying this, it is likely focused on the rules, and individual consciousness emerge at another level as a result of the rule following procedure. Like stop motion animation going from one character to another, from one small detail to another.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Japan - Reimagined by AI

AI video generation filter over an excellent old game.   In a few more hardware generations it is likely that such ai filters will be applicable in realtime to any game.

edit:  The latest upcoming dlss is set to do something like this in realtime, but I would have preferred it to be called something other than dlss. As I believe upscaling still has room to improve without relying on such radical ai filter overlaying.

This is why I believe that the future already exists

The block universe all moments existing at once is a possibility some may find frightening while others might delight in it.   It is something explored in the philosophy of time, and the physics of time.   Some say current theories support it while others say there is still room for debate.
