  1. Here’s the dream: I was represented at a function by a ‘replicant’ of myself, but the people at the event did not know they were talking to my replicant. Prior to the event, I discussed with others advances in #AI and #SynBio (Synthetic #Biology) that made the appearance, speech and movements of replicants indistinguishable from the original human. Even many physiological processes were duplicated - *except* for digestion, which resulted in quite different odours emitted by flatulence. 💨 👃 (1/2)

  6. This is awesome ...

    Nigerian distributors made a home-made promotion video about the product they bought and are reselling.

    youtube.com/shorts/EbWhJe-s8Bc

    No AI, just a minimal-cost high effort video tailored to an audience and culture I know way too little about.

    full disclosure: The product is something I worked on 😃 so I guarantee it works very well.

  34. 🧬 Attention iGEM teams!

    Are you starting a new project and thinking about biosafety systems? This is a great resource to explore different containment strategies:

    📘 Auxotrophy to Xeno-DNA: an exploration of combinatorial mechanisms for a high-fidelity biosafety system for synthetic biology applications

    ➡️ doi.org/10.1186/s13036-018-010

    From engineered auxotrophy to xeno-DNA containment, it is full of ideas that could help shape your design and safety planning.
