Big news from the White House. States with clear, innovation-friendly AI laws will now be better positioned to receive federal support. This could reshape the map for AI investment and research. 🧵 🔗 affuture.org/post/win_innova…

🤕 Imagine getting a warning before a migraine hits. Researchers are exploring exactly that with AI. Early days, but personalized medicine keeps getting more exciting. If we slow down AI, we slow down this life-improving research. nexthorizon.space/2026/10/5-…

Will AI save us? Yes! Check out what @erwin1854 and @IsabelleAliciaa wrote about AI and how it saves lives: "Drug development is one of the riskiest economic ventures. As a result, diseases go untreated, prescriptions are expensive, billions are spent on drugs that fail, and patients wait decades for a cure that may already exist in a library of millions of untested compounds. Artificial intelligence is now streamlining the process. In some cases it does work no human team could. Left alone, AI will deliver Americans more life-preserving medicines at a lower cost."

AI could make life easier for heart transplant patients. Researchers at NYU have developed an AI tool that uses routine heart readings and blood tests to help identify transplant rejection. That could mean fewer invasive biopsies for patients who have already undergone major surgery, while helping doctors identify problems earlier. nyulangone.org/news/ai-may-h…

AI isn’t just getting better at answering questions we already know how to solve. Researchers working with @Meta Muse Spark tackled open mathematical problems with no known answer. The result: six new papers, five answering previously open research questions. AI is becoming a tool for discovery itself. Let’s accelerate it. research.meta.ai/blog/solvin…

If you like dogs, you’ve got another reason to like AI. Researchers found that AI helped veterinary pathologists spot about twice as many tumor cell divisions in roughly half the time, while making their assessments more consistent. Better cancer analysis for dogs. Faster answers for vets. More help for the animals we love. That’s a win worth barking about. 🐶 bioengineer.org/ai-helps-pat…

Mississippi is working with data centers to boost the state’s economy, drive AI growth, and attract investment. States like Mississippi will prosper in the AI future. Success is a choice!
WATCH: Gov. @tatereeves speaks about data center development in the state of Mississippi: “There are people who will tell you that AI data centers don't create jobs, and number one, that's not true. But number two, the jobs that surround building the infrastructure that allow the industry to grow are tremendous... and they pay really good salaries.”

AI helped scientists narrow a months-long search for promising pancreatic cancer compounds to a single weekend. When researchers tested the top AI-selected compounds in the lab, they produced the strongest intended changes in cancer cells. Slowing AI means slowing the search for treatments patients who need them as soon as possible. microsoft.com/en-us/research…

Thank you AI and data centers! AI can help catch a deadly heart disease before patients end up in heart failure. Yale researchers built a tool that spots people at risk using a routine ECG. Catching the disease sooner can mean earlier treatment, less heart damage and more time with the people you love. medicine.yale.edu/news-artic…

What have data centers and AI been up to? Looking for bladder cancer and improving outcomes. Bladder cancer kills about 220,000 people worldwide each year, and catching it early can be difficult. Researchers have developed an AI system that can find warning signs buried across years of a patient’s medical history, including patterns traditional screening can miss. AI can help doctors see signals humans might otherwise never connect. Let’s not slow the partnership down. scitechdaily.com/ai-detects-…

Esophageal cancer is one of the most common digestive tract cancers in the world, and AI is helping to catch it earlier. A new Nature Medicine study found that AI could spot esophageal cancer and even precancerous lesions on routine chest CT scans, giving patients a better chance to start treatment sooner. We should be accelerating tools like this, not slowing them down. nature.com/articles/s41591-0…

More than half of clinicians at UTMB are already using AI to get medical research and clinical guidance directly into their workflow. This is not some distant promise. AI is already helping doctors get better information faster. Slowing down AI means slowing down medicine. utmb.edu/utmb/news-article/u…

AI is increasingly being used to find drug targets, design molecules and plan clinical trials. Reuters reports that these tools could eventually cut some early-stage drug development timelines and costs by as much as half. Faster AI progress can mean faster medical progress. Slowing down AI slows down this work. reuters.com/business/healthc…

Great piece by @joellthayer the AI economy keeps America growing and the skeptics scratching their heads. ⬇️
AI alarmists keep missing their own deadlines. Unemployment is 4.1%, not 10-20%. Radiologists are in demand, not obsolete. My new piece in @WashTimesOpEd on why the next round of doom forecasts deserves the same skepticism: washingtontimes.com/news/202…

Some people want to stop these advances in medicine made possible through A. We say keep them coming: Stanford researchers built a virtual biotech with 37,000 AI agents. They analyzed 50,000 clinical trials in less than a week and independently designed a cancer treatment strategy that was later validated in the real world. med.stanford.edu/news/all-ne…

Small businesses are being helped by AI. We need a future where AI will continue to boost the entrepreneurs on Main Street.
Small businesses are America’s economic engine, and with the help of AI, they are doing better than ever. A new study highlights how businesses that adopted AI grew their headcount 10 percent over two years, boosting Main Street America and creating new jobs across the country. thehill.com/opinion/finance/…

The idea that AI automatically means fewer jobs is running into some inconvenient evidence. New data finds small businesses using AI grew their workforces faster than businesses that didn't. Among companies with fewer than 10 employees, the difference was 10 percent. Give entrepreneurs better tools and they can build more, grow more, and hire more people. axios.com/2026/09/10/ai-hiri…

This is what being a good neighbor looks like. Data centers should strengthen the communities that host them, from helping keep electricity costs down to supporting teachers and first responders. Great to see @Meta leading the way.
WATCH: @Meta's @DinaPowellMcC on @RuthlessPodcast highlighting our data center community compact. "We promise to not only pay for our own electricity but to actually work to drive down electricity costs...we work with teachers & first responders to give them direct bonuses..."
