CEO of Colossal Ben Lamm says that humanity has a “moral commitment” to follow the disposal technique
Colossal CEO, a start-up company aimed at using genetic editing techniques to restore extinct species, including wool mammogans, the masses at SXSW that the company does not have plans to create the Juerasic Real-Life-fearing there will be any doubt.
“Modern memorization does not work […] He said, CEO of Colossal, during an interview with him on Sunday on the stage in Austin, in response to questions from the actor and member of the board of directors, Joe Manjano. “I think we have a moral commitment and the moral commitment to follow -up technologies [that] Return some of the things we are [as a species] I did. “
Lamm added that Golossal is working to restore Dood Bird and Thylacine, known as Tasmanian Tiger, as well as the Sufi mammoth. But the displacement of dinosaurs will not be possible due to the lack of useable sources in the DNA of dinosaurs.
The Dallas -based Golossal Company, which was established in 2023 by Lamm and George Church, stated that it wants to be the Sufi hybrid calves by 2028, which it hopes to re -submit to the homeland of Tandra in the Arctic. The company also leads a research project to release Tasmanian Tiger Joeys to their original Australian and wider Australian habitats after a period of families.
This vision is an echo with investors. Colossal collected hundreds of millions of dollars in investment capital, which is At a value of $ 10.2 billion currently.
Colossal has operated two companies focusing on specific requests, including a third that has not yet been announced. Lam said he believed that there are “billions of dollars” that will be made from “returning” the species and carbon.
One of the last prominent Colossal projects is The “mystical mouse” is liberated by genes, The type of mouse with mutations inspired by the woolen mammoths. Mice, which show long, radiant, colorful fur, were developed using a mixture of mouse -like hair growth mutations.
Some experts have expressed doubts about the new species, on the pretext that the experience was more than the science of mouse genetics more than its penetration in the compatibility process.
However, Lamm said that the project has shown the work of Colossal in Wooly Mammoth Research.
“It has made it clear to us that, at the beginning, our amendments that we make for Mammoth are the correct amendments,” Lam said.
Lamm touched on artificial intelligence during the interview, saying that he believes that combining computing, artificial intelligence, and artificial biology would be more set of “dangerous” techniques that the world has seen. But it also drew an ideal picture of the future, expecting that the advancement of artificial biology in particular will lead to cancer treatment, means of removing plastic materials from the oceans, and the availability of wide, wide -ranging water.
“We will have a real dominance of life, as we can eliminate species that fit the lost species,” Lam said. “
Lam also said that he expected to “achieve humanity” the speed of escape in the next twenty years, adding years to the average life expectancy of man and making eternity theoretical possibility.
Besides the length of human life, Lamm said that the expansion process may require a “project in the project in Manhattan” to support endangered species specifically in “vital cellar” to create stem and egg cells. Lam said he spoke to “a country that seems excited about that” – without naming any names.
Regarding the issue of public sector business, Lamm stated that Golossal meets “a quarterly” with US government agencies and that the government has invested in huge grants, and is assumed through grants.
