Prediction text

Mouse brain is 'next' for whole-brain emulation at Eon Systems | I think history will say that this weekend, the weekend of Abundant Summit 2026, was the moment when the first model organism had an entire brain uploaded. So, what's next? A mouse.

Watch events: Neuralink human trial enrollment; first commercial BCI

What if this resolves?

Clamp this prediction TRUE or FALSE and run a counterfactual Gibbs sample. Surfaces the predictions whose marginals shift most under that assumption.
(live posterior: 32%)

Click a button to clamp this prediction and run a Gibbs sample. Returns the predictions whose marginals shift most. ~30s per run; ideal for stress-testing "if X resolves, what else moves?"
