"I think what tech people misunderstand is just the size of the TAM in pharma."
@zebulgar says capital will rotate into pharma after AGI:
"Anthropic is at what, a $60B run rate? Keytruda, the drug that Merck did in 2019, that one drug's topline is $25B in revenue. Just that one drug."
"By the way, once there's AGI, what do you think everybody's going to be focused on afterwards? Everybody's just going to want to live forever. Where do you think the capital is going to rotate into? It's going to rotate into longevity, therapeutics, and manufacturing."

Ron Desantis signs a bill into law that bans the use of steam engines in the state of Florida
"Until we have decades of safety data, we cannot allow consumers to access these engines, we already have donkeys that can run our mills"
Thanks for highlighting @ArkBiotech's work. We're proud to be pioneering the tech essential for the biorevolution, from cultivated meat to life-saving medications.
@SenFettermanPA the choice is clear: we either seize the opportunity to anchor this future right here in America (Make More Sh*T in America 🇺🇸), or we risk watching more jobs slip through our fingers to overseas competitors. Senator - would love to show you around Ark and discuss how we can strengthen US supply chains, bolster our economy, and improve national security.

We just opened up an incredible role focused on commercializing our technical platform — bioprocess modeling, simulation, optimization, and real-time control. Are you product-focused, with a deep knowledge of biotech and B2B software?
This job's for you!

🥩 @YQuint on cultivated meat capacity:
“If Samsung Biologics [world's largest cell culture facility] were to be running every single minute of every single day for an entire year, they would produce less cultivated meat than the average Tyson facility produces in one day...
It’s not about incremental change. We’re talking about a revolution, and that means reimagining what infrastructure looks like... At Ark, we are offering the path for industry to succeed.

Nice figure from the White House on actual EV sales versus AEO projections (or, as they call them, AEO forecasts, because they are forecasts)

Technological progress is non-linear.
Monumental innovations don’t happen overnight. Mass production takes time to get started.
Turning moonshots into meals is not easy, and yet, company after company have developed mouth-watering products.
And the reality is that cultivated meat has made tremendous progress. Ten years ago, a Dutch professor unveiled the first cultivated burger. Since then, we've seen costs plummet 99.99%.
Of course, companies are going to try things that fail. Every great achievement comes after repeated failures.
Take the lubricant spray WD-40. The full name is Water Displacement 40th formula. The first thirty-nine version of the formula failed. But, the chemist learned from each one of those failures and nailed it on the fortieth try.
The cultivated meat industry has solved some of the biggest, hardest, show-stopper problems.
And, we still need to constantly refine and improve. Better is always possible.
Innovation is perpetual.

+1 for biomanufacturing. Time to bring big data, algorithm driven, real time decision making to cultivated meat, bio pharma, and all the other goods we produce in bioreactors and fermenters. Thesis of @ArkBiotech.
100% of stock trades used to be made by humans. Today, 80% are made by computer algorithms.
AI is about to bring a similar revolution to healthcare. And many don't realize how big this will be.

Grateful for the team at @ArkBiotech and the entire Cultivated meat industry for bucking convention to change the world.

The Times They Are A-Changin'
What if every steak was wagyu?
What if every tuna was bluefin?
What if every fish was mercury free?
What if we could reforest 40% of the earth?
What if we could replenish the ocean?
What if we didn’t kill animals?
What if all meat was cultivated?
A better world awaits.
I started Ark to unblock scale. Two years and many prototypes later, we've done it. Journey still just beginning but very confident that cultivated meat will reach the masses.
There’s been a lot written about challenges facing the cultivated meat industry recently. But what these articles ignore is: the science is there. The industry is on the precipice of mass adoption. Now it's time to solve scale.

By giving up industrial production, the West has given up industrial innovation.

Yesterday, Our CEO, @UmaValeti MD, took the stage with @ChristineMHall at TechCrunch Disrupt to share the journey we’re on towards scale! 🚀
#UPSIDEFoods #TechCrunchDisrupt #CultivatedMeat #FutureOfFood
The next step for cultivated meat “is going from first sale to formidable scale” @UmaValeti.
Let’s go!!!

2 well-written articles published today about cultivated meat in @WIRED & @washingtonpost. The industry still has challenges, but the challenges called out are mainly engineering challenges, not scientific ones. 🧵
Bringing cultivated meat to the masses is a journey but engineering challenges are solvable - we just need to do things differently. At @ArkBiotech we’re doing everything we can to accelerate the transition to a more just food system.
