Good crowd at Network State 2026. Many people interested in starting new communities.

No. Bill Clinton did not resign.
Jensen Huang shouldn’t either.
And the Nvidia board shouldn’t fire him.
Particularly in the heat of the moment.
Ride it out and ignore the journos.
Clinton did. And then no one cared.

Come to Astana.
Build all the datacenters you want.
Welcoming @amasad to Network School Kazakhstan.

Welcoming Jensen Huang to Kazakhstan.
The beginning of a digital state.

Yes, AI is rapidly advancing mathematics (and theoretical physics problems that are essentially mathematical). Like Ramanujan’s notebooks, human mathematicians will spend months (years?) poring over the stream of papers that AI effortlessly generates, hoping to verify and understand them, probably until math itself (via Lean) becomes a branch of computer science like almost everything else.

However, after math and physics, there is still a next scientific frontier: chemistry, and especially biology and medicine.

I mean, it was already the frontier, but it’s the next one too. AI can crush deterministic math problems on the computer, but biomedicine is a highly empirical, noisy, multivariate, and yet often predictable domain.

Thus, AI radically increases our ambitions in biomedicine. All the omics data, all the messy literature, it can all be synthesized and analyzed in a flash. This is what the labs mean when they talk about curing all diseases. The tooling is available to take cracks at biomedical problems previously thought impossible.

Midjourney is doing this, Chan Zuckerberg is doing this, Anthropic is doing this, but there will be so much more.
