Sad to hear about the death of Craig Venter, the key driver behind the rapid sequencing of the human genome in the late 90s (and a lot of cool synthetic biology since). The spoof article below reflects my brief view of the relationship between Venter and the Human Genome Project academic leaders.1/n
Jonathan Eisen@phylogenomics.bsky.social · 3mo agoReposting this from April 1, 2007 in honor of Craig Venter. I did this as an April Fool's joke - sharing it as a PDF. I got stressed when I found out Craig had seen it and knew it was by me. But he loved it and said it was OK to share it more widely. So then I posted it on the web.
Strongly recommend this powerfully sardonic (in a very British style) take on the future of AI. Funny and thought provoking.

As it happens, I have experience with high-level government demands to stop an explosive, accurate story from running, and I also have experience with 60 Minutes spiking a story I was involved in, so I have thoughts about the travesty at CBS. If you want some journalism anecdotes, here are a lot:
