"Why are we doing all this in Neiry? The application of neurointerfaces, like those of Pythia, will unlock vast opportunities across numerous industries.
There will be a dramatic increase in efficiency in all current industrial uses of animals, primarily dogs (search dogs, guide dogs, rescue dogs, mine-sniffing dogs, etc.). Animals will be able to understand a significantly larger number of commands and execute them with greater precision. They will also be able to "speak" in response.
Self-sustaining livestock farms, where, for example, cows roam through the increasingly warming Siberian landscapes. Herds can be managed remotely, including activating a "Defense mode" against predators.
New ways to utilize animals – from the mundane use of rats for search and rescue during disasters to employing primates with neurointerfaces as workers, for example, in Amazon warehouses. Theoretically, worker gorillas could carry massive loads, while chimpanzees could assemble boxes for shipping. Payment in carrots is suitable.
Conversely, adding a biological brain to a fully mechanical robot. By the way, the Chinese have already conducted initial experiments.
Creating biological processors that operate on new principles, which could compete with Nvidia, including for mining.
I must mention that all experiments are conducted in accordance with the principles established by Ethics Committee."

“To the extent it is used I fear it’s often for illicit finance. It’s an extremely inefficient way of conducting transactions, and the amount of energy that’s consumed in processing those transactions is staggering,” the former Fed chairwoman said. Yellen’s comments have been cited as a reason for bitcoin’s recent losses. However, Yellen’s assessment of bitcoin as a inefficient medium of exchange is an important point and one that has already been raised in the past by bitcoin bulls. Using a volatile asset in exchange for goods and services makes little sense if the asset can tumble 10% in a day, or surge 80% over the course of a two months as bitcoin has done in 2021, critics argue. To put a finer point on it, over the past 12 months bitcoin has registered 8 corrections, defined as a decline from a recent peak of at least 10% but not more than 20%, and two bear markets, which are defined as falls of 20% or more, according to Dow Jones Market Data.
Telegram auto-delete message, expiring invites, and more
elegram is updating its messaging app with options for auto-deleting messages, expiring invite links, and new unlimited groups, the company shared in a blog post. Much like Signal, Telegram received a burst of new users in the confusion over WhatsApp’s privacy policy and now the company is adopting features that were already part of its competitors’ apps, features which offer more security and privacy. Auto-deleting messages were already possible in Telegram’s encrypted Secret Chats, but this new update for iOS and Android adds the option to make messages disappear in any kind of chat. Auto-delete can be enabled inside of chats, and set to delete either 24 hours or seven days after messages are sent. Auto-delete won’t remove every message though; if a message was sent before the feature was turned on, it’ll stick around. Telegram’s competitors have had similar features: WhatsApp introduced a feature in 2020 and Signal has had disappearing messages since at least 2016.
