I recently heard about the far out initiative from ACX grants. Will there be good evidence that they or someone like them succeeds in genetically modifying a vertebrate to suffer much less by the end of 2026?
In the event of a difficult resolution, I'll resolve to my best judgement. I will not bet on this market. Comments are welcome to try to persuade me.
