different animal, but you would be surprised how similar mammals are. The divergence between the two species is relatively recent in the history of earth's evolution, therefore the base genetics are still similar to an amazing degree (we're probably 80 - 90% the same as mice). If you can understand how their remedy fixes the disease in mice, you'll largely understand how it also affects the human brain. Still a lot of work to do, but that pesky 10 - 20% difference could have a whole load of human specific side effects that they'll need to identify and mitigate before they finally nail the cure. This is a HUGE step though

That’s a long essay and I’m definitely interested. I’ll deep dive it some evening. Recently I was chatting with my nephew in London about AI. He told me that when ChatGPT 5 was ready, they switched off 4 - and it turned itself back on. Being habitually lazy I didn’t fact check it. I even might have misremembered what he told me, so I asked the phone earlier today.
