Breakthroughs Keep Coming: Human Longevity.

The four broad areas of technology that I tend to track are artificial intelligence, biology, energy, and space. (Maybe five if you want to separate robotics from AI.) In each of those areas, we’ve seen some incredible advances and achievements in recent months, including: NASA’s successful launch of the Artemis I lunar mission (Nov. 16, 2022); OpenAI’s successful launch of the Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer, or ChatGPT chatbot (Nov. 30, 2022); and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory’s successful generation of nuclear fusion that produced more energy than it took to start the reaction (Dec. 13, 2022).
