- A new open-source non-real-time “emotive” text-to-speech model named Dia was announced; repository and Reddit discussion links were shared.  
- A Nature paper (DOI 10.1038/s41586-025-08869-4) and a European Heart Journal preprint on cardiovascular risk were circulated as recent high-impact biomedical literature.  
- The 1517 “Flux Capacitor” fellowship program (1517.smapply.us/prog/flux_capacitor/) was highlighted as a funding opportunity for frontier hardware or biotech projects.  
- Discussion of AI-driven medical diagnosis: DxGPT (dxgpt.app) was presented as a wrapper that sends clinician-entered symptoms to GPT-4/o1/o3 with engineered prompts to output ranked differential diagnoses.  
- Participants debated why AMIE + clinician underperforms AMIE alone, concluding that clinicians lack training to craft the detailed, research-grade prompts the model expects; a second interactive “prompt-building AI” was proposed as a stop-gap.  
- A broader forecast was offered that AI assistance may soon become legally mandatory for driving, legal work, and differential diagnosis, while human surgeons are expected to remain essential for at least the next decade.
