Brief

Links (97) — a Nintil roundup by Jose Luis Ricon (published 2026-06-14) — gathers 97 links spanning biomedicine, AI, and contemplative practice. Highlights include Dynomight on early-onset colorectal cancer, a critique of AI-assisted writing, worm memory-by-eating research, aging/entropy pattern analysis, meditation guidance (including Carmen Lau), AI-consciousness recommendations, and Buddhist memes.

Why it matters

Jose Luis Ricon's Nintil roundup 'Links (97)' (published 2026-06-14) aggregates 97 links, including Dynomight's analysis of rising colorectal and other cancers in young people and items on reversing atherosclerosis.

Key details

  • The collection foregrounds AI and cognition: a 'Writing is thinking' piece arguing against using AI for writing, a call for recommendations on AI consciousness from meditators, and an observation that LLMs 'seem to like Nagarjuna.'
  • It also curates biology and contemplative items — research on worm memory-by-eating, a post on emergent patterns from entropic damage of aging ('from chaos, order'), meditation-path guidance including Carmen Lau's experiences, and three Buddhist memes (Nagarjuna, Avalokiteshvara, Padmasambhava).

Dynomight on the rise of colorectal (and other types of) cancer in young people Writing is thinking: a case against using AI for writing Can you (if you are a worm, that is) acquire memories by eating them ? On how patterns emerge out of the entropic damage of aging (the topic of my from chaos, order post) On choosing a meditation path and Carmen Lau's experiences along the Path I ask Twitter : what's the best writing on AI consciousness, ideally from people that meditate? I made a Nagarjuna meme, an Avalokiteshvara meme, and a Padmasambhava meme Relatedly, LLMs seem to like Nagarjuna Reversing atherosclerosis soon?
