“Very soon it’s going to be malpractice not to use AI in medicine”
Where the people who build what's next come to talk
For AI researchers, technologists, and infrastructure leads. Here to engineer, not to evangelise. Application-only.
What gets discussed
- 01
The Path to AGI & Artificial Superintelligence
The trajectory toward machines that surpass human cognition - and what the race for first intelligence means for investors positioning ahead of a post-labor economy.
- 02
Space Tech & Orbital Compute Infrastructure
The migration of data centers to Earth's orbit - and how space-based compute and satellite laser networks are becoming the backbone of a resilient global AI infrastructure.
- 03
Agentic Payments & The Machine Economy
How autonomous agents use blockchain to settle transactions at machine speed - and which financial rails are being built to support autonomous economic activity.
- 04
The Biotech Revolution & Genetic Engineering
How CRISPR and synthetic biology are transforming medicine and creating high-moat investment opportunities - and which innovation hubs are leading the charge.
- 05
Quantum Computing & Post-Quantum Security
The race for quantum supremacy and its implications for global encryption - and how quantum-resistant portfolios are being positioned across assets and sectors.
- 06
Longevity Research & Anti-Aging Geroscience
The shift from reactive medicine to preventative bio-optimization - and which jurisdictions and biotech firms are leading the frontier of human healthspan extension.

Artificial intelligence agents are becoming economic actors at a pace that outstrips the infrastructure around them, according to a16z crypto. In a recent post, the firm argued that the real bottleneck in the agent economy is no longer intelligence, but identity. Today’s agents can execute tasks and move money, yet they still lack standardized ways

What Moved the
Conversation
Ben Goertzel
Founder of SingularityNET & "Father of AGI"
This month's contribution
Dr. Ben Goertzel is a legendary computer scientist and mathematician who famously coined the term Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). As CEO of SingularityNET and the Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) Alliance, he leads global efforts to merge blockchain infrastructure with decentralized AI networks. This month on the Expert Council podcast, Ben mapped out a technical roadmap for how AGI could fully emerge in just two to three years, highlighting the wild-card factors that could make it happen as early as this year.
Aubrey de Grey
Biomedical Gerontologist & Longevity Pioneer
This month's contribution
Dr. Aubrey de Grey is an iconic biomedical gerontologist, Cambridge alumnus, and author globally renowned for pioneering SENS, a tissue-repair framework designed to reverse age-related cellular damage. Leading the Longevity Escape Velocity (LEV) Foundation, his foresight on biotech curves provides vital insight into human healthspan. This month on the Expert Council podcast, Aubrey detailed why China is the country to watch in both AI development and longevity research, and shared his profound thesis on why people alive today already have a 50% chance of never dying from aging.
Prof. Dr. Derya Unutmaz
Professor of Immunology & AI Pioneer
This month's contribution
Dr. Derya Unutmaz is a world-renowned immunologist and Professor at The Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine, backed by over 100 peer-reviewed papers and $13.8 million in NIH funding. A recipient of the OpenAI Pro AI Award, his ability to interface computational AI with human biology gives the council elite technical authority on future health trends. This month on the Expert Council podcast, Derya explained why AI is not overvalued, asserting that its true, paradigm-shifting value lies outside of standard software and inside the radical transformation of healthcare.
