AI Thread Summary
The discussion critiques the premise that a dense element can be a viable energy source, comparing it to gold and lead, which are also dense but not energy sources. The claim of abundance is challenged, with references to Wikipedia listing it as one of the rarest elements in the solar system. The conversation emphasizes skepticism towards the source of information, labeling it as nonsensical and dismissing the concept of "organic living" presented in the linked content. The thread concludes with a reminder against posting debunking content, leading to its closure.

It seems to go on the premise that since it's dense, you can get energy from it... well, I guess gold and lead would be great sources as well then!
They say it's abundant, but that seems to be a crock as well.. wikipedia lists it as one of the rarest elements in the solar system.

It's a site that believes there is something called organic living. (As opposed to what?)

That tells me all I need to know.

Please do not post nonsense to debunk -- that's not allowed at the PF. Thread is closed.

Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
