How AI & Supercomputing Are Reshaping Aerospace & Finance w/ Allan Grosvenor (MSBAI)

Excellent Podcast interview Allan Grosvenor!…” How Allan built MSBAI to make super computing more accessible.

How AI-driven simulation is speeding up aircraft & spacecraft design.

Why AI is now making an impact in finance & algorithmic trading.

The next evolution of AI-powered decision-making & autonomous systems”

What if AI could power everything from rocket simulations to Wall Street trading? Allan Grosvenor, aerospace engineer and founder of MSBAI, has spent years developing AI-driven supercomputing solutions for space, aviation, defense, and even finance. In this episode, Brent Muller dives deep with Allan on how AI is revolutionizing engineering, the role of supercomputers in aerospace, and why automation is the key to unlocking faster innovation.

Gravity is no longer fundamental: a new quantum discovery reveals that it emerges from hidden spacetime symmetry principles

In a groundbreaking discovery, physicists from Aalto University have unveiled a new framework that unites gravity with the forces described by the Standard Model of particle physics, potentially bringing us closer to the long-awaited “Theory of Everything.” This discovery doesn’t just reframe gravity—it offers a fresh perspective on how the fundamental forces of nature might work together¹

FDA-Approved Sleeping Pill Slows Alzheimer’s Tangles in Pre-Clinical Trial

A drug used to treat insomnia has protected mice against the buildup of the tau protein found to clump abnormally in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. This could lead to new ways to help slow the progress of these diseases.

An increasing number of people are facing cognitive decline personally or in their loved ones. There are almost 10 million new cases of dementia globally each year, and despite decades of research, there are still few treatment options that provide clear benefits.

So due to the links between Alzheimer’s and poor sleep, Washington University neurologist Samira Parhizkar and colleagues investigated a central nervous system depressant, lemborexant, that was approved for use as a sleep aid by the FDA in December 2019.

Nvidia to drop Humanoid robots that will produce Nvidia GB300 chips in Q1 of 2026.

This would be the first time that an Nvidia product will be made with the assistance of humanoid robots and would be Foxconn’s first AI server factory to use them on a production line.

Foxconn is developing its own humanoid robots with Nvidia and has also trialed humanoids made by China’s UBTech

Breakthrough: FDA Approves Injection to Prevent HIV

The US Food and Drug Administration on Wednesday approved Gilead Sciences’ twice-yearly injection to prevent HIV – a move the company hailed as a major breakthrough in the fight against the sexually transmitted virus.

Drugs to prevent HIV transmission, known as pre-exposure prophylaxis or PrEP, have existed for more than a decade. But because they typically require taking a daily pill, they have yet to make a significant dent in global infections.

“This is a historic day in the decades-long fight against HIV,” Gilead chairman and chief executive Daniel O’Day said in a statement.

Fish Are Smarter Than Previously Thought, Scientists Reveal

A new method shows fish can learn and strategize in their natural habitats, challenging long-held views based on lab studies. For years, scientists have underestimated the intelligence of fish, often relying on lab-based studies that don’t reflect how these animals behave in their natural environ

DARPA program sets distance record for power beaming

Previously, the greatest reported distance records for an appreciable amount of optical power (1 microwatt) were 230 watts of average power at 1.7 kilometers for 25 seconds and a lesser (but undisclosed) amount of power at 3.7 kilometers.

“It is beyond a doubt that we absolutely obliterated all previously reported optical power beaming demonstrations for power and distance,” said POWER Program Manager Paul Jaffe after the results were confirmed. The DARPA-led team brought together industry and government, including the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory and the High Energy Laser Systems Test Facility (HELSTF) at the U.S. Army’s White Sands Missile Range.

Energy is a fundamental requirement for military operations, and traditional means of getting energy to the edge (battlefields, disaster zones, etc.) are often incredibly slow, risky, and resource intensive. These tests, referred to as PRAD (POWER Receiver Array Demo), mark an important step towards the POWER program’s long-term goal of being able to instantly beam power from a location where it can be easily generated to wherever it’s needed, opening a novel design space for platform capabilities unbounded by fuel limitations.
