Last night an AI agent performed brain surgery on a mouse.
We gave it 19 gene therapy vectors in a spreadsheet, a mouse model of epilepsy, access to a motorize surgery rig with cameras and one goal: reduce seizures.
It picked the drug. It picked the brain region. It derived the coordinates from three papers. Then it drove the stereotaxic arms into the brain and injected 250 nanolitres while watching the entry site through the rig camera for bleeding.
A licensed vet gated every irreversible step and held a physical kill switch to stop the AI agent.
Thread on what it decided, what it saw, and the moment it refused to let me override it.
[Writing this on the spot out of excitement, but I've been 18hrs in front of my laptop coding and coordinating this, so keeping it brief and descriptive, more cohesive thoughts on this soon...]

Drake’s album VIEWS is officially RIAA certified Diamond.
“In My Feelings” and “Marvins Room” went Diamond too, part of new certifications that cement Drake as the most certified artist in history and the first to surpass 350 million RIAA-certified units. His record for most Diamond singles by any artist climbs to 18 (solo and featured)

The situation is getting worse every hour. AI agents are entering U.S. bank accounts, and banks are scrambling to shut them out. Axios reports that some appear to attempt actions beyond users instructions, raising fears over who is really in control.
SCOOP: Major U.S. banks are detecting unauthorized third-party AI agents inside customer accounts, including some attempting to take actions that appear to be independent of user instructions, sources told Axios.
The findings have alarmed banking executives, who are racing to restrict access to their systems as AI moves at a velocity faster than financial institutions can respond, multiple industry and bank executives told Axios.
Several banks are now preparing for worst-case and even “day after” scenarios, including how to rapidly secure or restore customer accounts if things go wrong, the people said.
Several bank executives told Axios they're struggling to distinguish between human users and AI agents. One executive said banks also struggle to determine whether agents are authorized by customers or potentially operating without their permission, more akin to rogue agent behavior.

Twitter is unique because ambitious, high agency people end up debating what’s possible with timid, risk averse people and both sides mistake their abilities, limitations and life experience for universal truths. The disconnect is these two groups rarely interact in the wild.

There comes a time in the life of any intelligent, successful person where the delta between them and the people around them becomes so wide that they can no longer really relate to each other in the same way
This was always the case to some degree, but eventually you reach a critical point where the experiences you’ve accumulated, the patterns you’ve recognized, and the competence you’ve developed are so far removed from those of your peers that even people who were relatively close to you early on can no longer really understand your perspective
I see this as both a good and a bad thing. You ofc have a degree of freedom and a way of seeing the world that you probably wouldn’t trade, but there’s also a growing lack of relatability
You can see people making decisions that you feel relatively certain aren’t going to work out, because you’ve already experienced the downstream consequences of similar decisions, or you’ve seen the pattern play out enough times to understand where it’s heading
Yet trying to explain this to them often makes you sound delusional. They haven’t had the experiences necessary to understand why you see things the way you do, and from their perspective, you’re the one who’s detached from reality
The main problem with this is that you eventually start questioning whether you’re actually delusional
Because you look around and everybody is doing something different. They’re following conventional paths and making decisions that seem perfectly reasonable to them. Meanwhile, you’ve developed a very different model of how things work, and you can see the flaws in a lot of what they’re doing
But what if you’re wrong? What if you’ve just constructed an elaborate narrative around your own experiences and convinced yourself that you see something other people don’t?
The irony is that the ability to question yourself is part of what allowed you to get here in the first place. You had to be sufficiently self-aware to recognize when something wasn’t working and continually update your model of reality
So then you find yourself caught between two things: the recognition that your own way of seeing things has repeatedly produced results, and the fact that almost everyone around you seems to be operating according to a different set of assumptions
And I think the best answer is to continue leaning into what got you here, while remaining sufficiently self-aware to recognize when you’re wrong
Because if you’re going to do anything meaningfully different, there will inevitably be periods where the evidence available to you makes sense before it makes sense to anyone else
A lot of talented, intelligent guys figure out how to play games really well from an early age
This transitions pretty naturally into business later on. Depending on the type of intelligence they have, they start to see patterns earlier than other people, make better decisions + accumulate the compounding benefits of doing so over time
They experience a lot of success because they’re innately good at taking objective reality, figuring out what’s working and what isn’t, and pivoting accordingly
The interesting thing is that this becomes progressively more fine-tuned throughout their life. The more they do it, the better they get at it, and the more the game itself reinforces the underlying behavior
The fundamental feedback loop is pretty straightforward. You look at reality objectively, identify what’s wrong or what could be improved, adjust your behavior, and get a better result. Repeat this enough times and you become exceptionally good at it
The problem is that the game itself starts to become your model for life
And how you perceive reality quite literally becomes your reality
The game isn’t just economics either, although it certainly attracts extremes in this category. It’s everything you’ve learned to do well, everything that has rewarded you for being this way
At a certain point, you start to realize that there are other dimensions of life that don’t operate according to the same rules. Relationships, love, internal peace, actually feeling things, being present, having a sense of self that isn’t entirely contingent on what you’re doing or how well you’re doing it
And the really interesting part is that some of the traits that got you here can actively get in the way of developing those other dimensions
Because you simply CANNOT approach everything as a problem to solve
In fact, some of the most important things in life seem to require almost the opposite of what made you successful
This is a particularly difficult transition for anyone who has spent their entire life being rewarded for the ability to adapt and make things happen
The real challenge is learning when the thing that makes you exceptionally good at one game is no longer the thing that will get you where you want to go in another
And being intelligent enough to recognize that isn’t necessarily the same as being able to do it
At some point, you have to develop an entirely different relationship with reality
It requires a big leap of faith into the unknown, which feels like death at first
There is no other option tho, unless you want to continuing living a life of illusion
