Scott McGrath @smcgrath.phd · 22hFor example, data centers roll out seemed unstoppable, the amount of money behind them is staggering. But even when you have nearly unlimited money, somebody is still going to say no. Like that family in Sydney that turned down tens of millions for their land as subdivisions encapsulated them. 000

Scott McGrath @smcgrath.phd · 22/09/2026🧪 Some hindbrain motor neurons (the cells that control swallowing and breathing) were hard to grow in the lab. Why? The standard recipe builds the front-brain lineage. Using the back-of-the-brain track, this study grew human motor neurons that fire and respond to light pulses. #MedSky 🧠 170

Scott McGrath @smcgrath.phd · 16/09/2026🧪 VivaBench external testing showed that consistency-based triage holds up across 10 specialties, but residual errors remain. Most weren't wild hallucinations; the agent often anchored on presenting symptoms rather than downstream test results that came days later. #MedSky #AIAgents 010
Scott McGrath @smcgrath.phd · 16/09/2026🧪 At a 0.90 consistency threshold, the local agent handled nearly half of all cases autonomously at 98.9% accuracy, routing unstable runs to human review. You get a reliable safety net, though generating 5 passes per case means roughly a 5x jump in inference token costs. #MedSky #AIAgents 110
Scott McGrath @smcgrath.phd · 11/09/2026In use, the authors found GLP-1 response trajectories diverge sharply depending on baseline blood sugar. Across 16k patients, normal glycemia saw 7.7% weight loss at 12 months versus just 2.7% in poorly controlled diabetes. Glycemic drops went the other way, falling 2.36% in severe T2D. #MedSky 010

Scott McGrath @smcgrath.phd · 09/09/2026Physicians who used GPT-4o across more diagnostic steps scored higher across all three cohorts. In Indonesia, high users outscored low users by 16.1 points. But access alone wasn't a magic fix: some unassisted clinicians still beat out peers leaning heavily on the tool. #MedSky 100

Scott McGrath @smcgrath.phd · 28/08/2026There are so many things that that history is going to look back at this era and judge us harshly for. This is going to be one of them. What are we even doing!? 28138

Scott McGrath @smcgrath.phd · 21/08/2026Great read Doctorow's case is that the disorientation many are feeling about AI, and the toll it takes on our grip on reality, has deep roots and is far from a new problem. As an aside, the new beta feature of a thread count is great! It immediately let me know how far to drill down on this post. 0225
