Biology is much more complicated than most non-biologists can imagine. And AI is not going to change this anytime soon.

Those on an H1B cannot return to the US from tomorrow (Sunday) unless paying $100K. This is an out-of-the blue presidential action. We’ll see software engineers stranded abroad.

One easy to predict outcome: those on US visas will travel less… for work, for conferences etc.

Prominent folks:

Millions stay on Twitter because that's where they hear from you. That includes reporters.

YOU are giving Twitter viability and credibility.

If YOU leave, the people who want to hear from you will go where you are.

YOU are making the choice to keep others on Twitter.
