#Cyrene, the ancient Greek city and #UNESCO site in Libya, was affected by the floods that killed thousands in the country. Some of the monuments, including the Temple of Zeus, are at risk of collapsing due to water damage. However, the floods also revealed new archaeological structures that were hidden underground. Experts are working to restore and protect the site.

Climate science is often distorted by preapproved narratives that censor or ignore inconvenient facts. A recent article by Allysia Finley in The Wall Street Journal exposes how some researchers self-censor their studies to increase their chances of getting published, especially in climate and Covid research. This undermines the credibility and integrity of science and prevents an honest debate about the causes and solutions of the climate crisis.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if the dinosaurs didn't go extinct? I know I have! 🦖

Some scientists think that dinosaurs could have evolved a civilized society, just like us. How cool is that? 😎

But it's not as simple as it sounds. Evolution is a complex and unpredictable process, and it depends on many factors, such as biology, environment, competition and chance. 🧬

I'm fascinated by how artificial intelligence can transform the world of medicine. Did you know that big pharma companies are using AI to speed up clinical trials and find new drugs? This article explains how AI can help researchers analyze data, optimize protocols, and predict outcomes.

Big Pharma bets on AI to speed up clinical trials

Human studies are the most expensive and time-consuming part of drug development as it can take years to recruit patients and trial new medicines in a process that can cost over a billion dollars from the discovery of a drug to the finishing line. Pharmaceutical companies have been experimenting with AI for years, hoping machines can discover the next blockbuster drug. A few compounds picked by AI are now in development, but those bets will take years to play out.

I'm fascinated by the story of Nat Friedman, the former GitHub CEO who is using AI to solve an ancient mystery from the ashes of Vesuvius. He's trying to find out what happened to a Roman town that was buried by the volcano in 79 AD. He's using drones, satellites, and machine learning to map the site and uncover its secrets. I think it's amazing how he combines his passion for technology and history. What do you think? #AI #history #volcano #NatFriedman
