Dr. Jay Battacharya just spent 4.5 hours on Andrew Huberman's podcast discussing health.

He revealed mind-blowing facts about autism research, vaccine safety, & how our medical establishment really works...

Here are 8 of his most shocking insights: 🧵 Image
1/ His Own University Tried to Silence Him

Stanford's dean directly told Bhattacharya to stop speaking to the press during COVID.

They even "ordered him to redo" his immunity study when they didn't like the results.

"Stanford failed the academic freedom test," he said.
2/ Autism Rates Have Exploded and Nobody Knows Why

1 in 31 kids now has autism according to the CDC.

Bhattacharya's shocking admission: "Everyone has their pet theory for why and yet we don't know why. I as a scientist do not know the answer."

But here's where it gets crazy...
3/ Most Scientific Studies Can't Be Replicated

The replication crisis is so bad that drug companies do their own private studies because "they don't trust the published biomedical literature."

Translation: Most medical research is junk.
4/ Americans Are the World's "Piggy Bank" for Drug Research

"American taxpayers are the piggy bank for the world," Bhattacharya revealed.

Pharmacy benefit managers inflate prices while Europe pays "marginal costs."

Time to cut out the middlemen.
5/ He's Launching a Massive, Unbiased Autism Investigation

The NIH is starting a major initiative to investigate ALL potential causes of autism.

Environmental factors, nutrition, vaccines, everything is on the table.

No predetermined conclusions.
6/ American Life Expectancy Was Stagnant Even Before COVID

While European nations saw health gains, American life expectancy was "almost entirely flat" from 2012-2019.

Despite billions in healthcare spending, we're not actually improving American health outcomes.
7/ They Covered Up COVID's Origins

Scientific institutions should "come clean" about federal money potentially funding COVID-19 origin research.

The government even banned NIH contractor EcoHealth Alliance for failing to oversee the Wuhan lab.
8/ Young Scientists Drive Innovation, But the System Crushes Them

Bhattacharya's research proves young scientists are the most innovative.

Yet the system forces them to serve established scientists for decades.

His plan: Redirect funding to young investigators.
The transformation is already happening...

Bhattacharya froze 80% of NIH's budget and laid off over 1,000 employees.

University funding is being slashed from 50-60% down to 15%.

He's shifting focus from infectious diseases to chronic diseases affecting every American family.
His reform agenda is radical:

→ Investigating taboo topics like vaccine injuries and autism causes
→ Breaking up the scientific "old boys club"
→ Prioritizing replication over flashy new research
→ Cutting pharmaceutical middlemen
→ Restoring transparency to public health

BREAKING: MIT just analyzed 300 AI deployments worth $40 billion & the results are devastating.

Turns out, 95% of enterprise AI projects deliver zero measurable business impact.

Here's what the data revealed:

(hint: the pattern matches every major technology bubble we've seen) Image
The research findings are stark.

Despite $30-40 billion in enterprise AI investment, only 5% of companies are extracting millions in value.

The remaining 95% show no measurable P&L impact.

MIT's analysis reveals why this divide exists... Image
The research team conducted 150 executive interviews, surveyed 350 employees, and analyzed 300 public AI implementations.

Their conclusion challenges conventional wisdom about AI failures.

This isn't a technology problem—it's a strategic implementation gap. Image

NVIDIA's CEO Jensen Huang just made the most important AI prediction of 2025.

In his new podcast, he revealed mind-blowing facts about AI that 99% of people wouldn't know...

Including why NVIDIA will become the first $10 trillion company.

Here are my top 8 takeaways: 🧵 Image
1. The Three Scaling Laws That Change Everything

We now have three scaling laws, not one: pre-training, post-training, and inference scaling.

Jensen admitted: "I underestimated."

Inference demand isn't going 100x or 1,000x—it's going 1 billion times higher.
2. NVIDIA's "Extreme Co-Design" Advantage

Jensen revealed their secret weapon: building 6-7 different chips simultaneously while optimizing everything at once.

"We change the CPU, GPU, networking chip, MVLink scale up, Spectrum X scale out" all at the same time.

No competitor can match this scale.

He predicted:

• The Deep Learning revolution (2008)
• The online education boom (2011)
• China's massive AI dominance (2014)

Now Andrew Ng revealed 5 opportunities that will create more millionaires than anything before.

Here's what you should know (& how to prepare): 🧵 Image
First, his track record:

Ng built Google Brain. Co-founded Coursera. Led Baidu's AI.

He's trained 8 million students and has $370M backing his AI Fund.

When Ng makes predictions, Silicon Valley listens.
1/ Agentic AI beats scaling models

The agentic AI market explodes from $5.1B to $69B by 2032.

That's 13x growth in 7 years.

Meanwhile, everyone's chasing bigger models that cost billions.

Ng proved something revolutionary:

BREAKING: McKinsey just analyzed $600B+ in tech investments across 13 frontier sectors & the results are shocking.

Turns out, 78% of companies are using AI, but only 1% actually scaled it.

Here's what their data revealed:

(hint: we're measuring "AI adoption" completely wrong) Image
Right now, the biggest tech revolution in history is happening in plain sight.

While everyone debates "AI adoption," a handful of companies are quietly doing something different.

They're fusing technologies together.

And it's creating an insurmountable advantage... Image
McKinsey tracked 13 cutting-edge technologies across patents, investments, and real deployment.

The scope was mind-blowing.

But what they found will change how you think about tech strategy forever... Image

In 2024, OpenAI fired their youngest Superalignment researcher for asking too many questions.

He was 23 years old with 3 degrees and a terrifying secret about AI.

6 months later, his $1.5B fund is crushing Wall Street by 47%.

A thread about what he saw that others didn't... 🧵 Image
Image
Leopold Aschenbrenner entered Columbia University at age 15.

He graduated valedictorian at 19 with dual degrees in economics and mathematics-statistics.

OpenAI recruited him for their most sensitive project: controlling superintelligent AI systems.
The Superalignment team had one mission: solve AI alignment before machines surpass human intelligence.

Aschenbrenner discovered this timeline was shorter than anyone publicly acknowledged.

His internal analysis pointed to AGI by 2027.

3 out of 4 Americans are chronically dehydrated.

It's causing chronic fatigue, brain fog, and irritability.

Drinking 8 glasses of water isn't enough.

Here's how to properly hydrate (& how much water to actually drink each day): 🧵 Image
First we have to understand how hydration works...

Everyone talks about "drinking 8 glasses" but no one knows what cellular hydration means.

It's not about water volume. It's about electrolyte balance.

Watch this video to learn in less than 50 seconds:
Now let's look at hydration's worst enemies:

• Drinking too much plain water (dilutes electrolytes)
• Sports drinks loaded with sugar
• Coffee & alcohol (diuretic effects)
• Forcing water when not thirsty
• Following arbitrary "8 glasses" rules

Do these long enough & your system crashes from the inside out:
