Cloning could be used to save species—or make human “organ sacks”

This week I spoke to scientists who have found a way to turn male mouse embryos female. They’ve developed a CRISPR-based approach to essentially cut out the Y chromosome. It allowed them to create female clones of male mice. That’s right: female animals that are genetically identical to males, except for the missing Y chromosome.

This scientist is helping build a missing map of childhood

In 2017, Deanne Taylor attended a presentation at the University of Pennsylvania, just a short walk from her office. A researcher was there to unveil the Human Cell Atlas, an ambitious project that aimed to map every cell in the human body. Taylor was floored, and then concerned. As details emerged, she discovered that the

Z.ai Ships GLM-5.3 Without Retraining the Base Model: Better at Complex Coding and Long-Horizon Tasks

Z.ai just released GLM-5.3. GLM-5.3 runs on the same 743B base model as GLM-5.2. Every reported gain comes from scaled post-training: more task environments, more environment types, longer training. The results land in two places. Coding jumps most on the longest-horizon benchmarks, with Terminal-Bench 3.0 moving from 4.6 to 28.3. Cybersecurity moved further than Z.ai
