CNBC's Investing in Space newsletter offers a view into the business of space exploration and privatization, delivered straight to your inbox. There's a small spacecraft zipping around Earth right now, but, unlike most satellites in orbit, it wants to come down. The launch went great, the spacecraft has been healthy, drugs were made, but the necessary license for capsule reentry has not been granted. That may make sense for launch but it's a bit more difficult for reentry," Asparouhov said. How the stratosphere reacts to a reentry capsule in September is very different than February, which is very different than June."

Now, several space startups see an opportunity to satisfy in-space manufacturing demand using compact space factories. One company is Varda Space Industries in Southern California. Varda Space Industries' first pharmaceutical manufacturing satellite and reentry vehicle attached to a Rocket Lab Photon bus. Years of research have shown that protein crystals grown in space are much higher quality than those grown on Earth. Across the Atlantic in Cardiff, Wales, Space Forge is working on designing its own in-space factory to manufacture next-generation semiconductors.

Varda Space IndustriesDrugs in spaceMuch of the legwork for Varda’s drug experimentation can be done on the ground. The exorbitant price tag of drug research is often passed on to consumers in the form of eye-popping prices, which frequently draws critical headlines. “You’ll see like this entire ecosystem coming up to create this fertile ground for commercialization of space,” Bruey said.

The unraveling of fintech darling Vise
  + stars: | 2023-03-03 | by ( Stephanie Palazzolo | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +28 min
It was April, and more than two dozen salespeople who worked for the fintech startup Vise had been ordered to a multiday off-site at the W Hoboken hotel in New Jersey to share exhaustive reports on their performance. Even salespeople at bigger, established, top-tier investment-management firms typically wouldn't close $250 million in a year, multiple sales employees said. (K-means clustering is an unsupervised machine-learning algorithm often referred to as a form of AI, Vise's founders said). (Vise's founders disputed this, saying the company received updated financial data only once a day for its portfolio-construction engine.) And to address its "leaky funnel" of overestimating prospective sales, Vise was to stop outreach to new clients while it onboards and upsells to existing clients, the document said.
Elon Musk has taken issue with some of ChatGPT's responses. Among them, apparently, is Elon Musk, the CEO of Twitter and one of the founders of OpenAI, which created ChatGPT. On Monday, in response to a retweet of a screenshot of a ChatGPT's answer to a question about a hypothetical scenario involving racial slurs, Musk said, "Concerning." It was unclear which part of the response Musk was referring to. Researchers said in December that ChatGPT appeared to be capable of passing the US medical-licensing exam, though the research was still being peer-reviewed.
"We are the Underground Railroad of 'Gattaca' babies and people who want to do genetic stuff with their kids," Malcolm told me. Ellison, meanwhile, who has two children in their 30s, has reportedly resumed having kids — with his 31-year-old girlfriend. "The person of this subculture really sees the pathway to immortality as being through having children," Simone said.

FTX investor Sequoia Capital has marked down its position to $0 as the crypto exchange crumbles. Sequoia Capital now views its $213.5 million investment in FTX as worthless as the crypto exchange teeters on the brink of collapse after an eleventh-hour deal to salvage the business fell apart. "Somehow Sequoia capital turned a FTX write down to zero into a humblebrag. It invested $150 million into FTX through its third growth fund, which Sequoia said totaled less than 3% of that fund's capital commitments. In its letter to investors, Sequoia said it does "extensive research and thorough diligence" on every investment it makes.

Ţara a fost criticată în repetate rânduri de Comisia Europeană pentru că nu a reuşit să elimine corupţia şi că nu a trimis niciun funcţionar guvernamental de rang înalt după gratii pentru corupţie. Departamentul Trezoreriei din SUA a informat, miercuri, într-un comunicat că aceasta este cea mai importantă acţiune a Washingtonului împotriva corupţiei din Bulgaria de până acum. Premierul bulgar interimar Stefan Ianev a declarat că a fost informat telefonic despre decizie de subsecretarul de stat american pentru afaceri politice, Victoria Nuland. În 2013, Delian Peevski fusese propus la șefia serviciilor secrete, dar în cele din urmă numirea sa a fost anulată în parlament.
