The idea of an intelligence explosion caused by recursive self improvement has been around for a long time but until very recently it did not seem imminent. Now many leading researchers think it may happen quite soon. You can read our paper about it here: casp.ac/reports/intelligence…

Elated that our work is in the cover of NAR!Grateful to Tobias Karakach for the opportunity! Excellent water-color work @Jasmine_Barra_K
We are on the Cover of #NucleicAcidsResearch, Volume 53, ISSUE 17, 2025 doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkaf844 This is a watercolour by my mom, Iudi Simon. A self-taught painter and living proof that it’s never too late to uncover new beauty within ourselves. 🙏#NAR for showcasing her art.

This work investigates the role of histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) in gene regulation during DNA replication. We show that the fidelity of maintaining a primary PTM pattern can be significantly enhanced by the presence of an additional antagonistic PTM sequence.
