Re:Big Nuclear's Big Mistake – Linear No-Threshold

The YouTube video is slick but misleading. It repeats a pro-nuclear line that the LNT model is “anti-science,” citing a few industry-aligned papers from niche journals. In reality, large independent studies—INWORKS (BMJ 2015, 2023), the Life Span Study, and BEIR VII—all confirm cancer risk rises linearly even at low doses. Hill is not a radiation biologist. The myth isn’t LNT—it’s that YouTube can overturn seventy years of evidence.

That sounds great — thank you for working on this. I’m not a developer, just curious about AI in general. Local AI feels like the right direction if we want to save energy and water, too. Is your memory system open source?

Such a spirit from a "non-profit" - was it last week or so Sam Altman said Chat GPT will be soon good for erotica - as if we all want to hand over our IDs and personal data to Open AI.
In my view, current for-profit model of AI development is killing what could have been hte most meaningful potential of AI - to genuinely benefit betterment of the humanity.
