From BBC There is a magnificent, snow-white wolf on the cover of Time Magazine today – accompanied by a headline announcing the return of the dire wolf. This now extinct species is possibly most famous for its fictional role in Game of Thrones, but it did exist – more than 10,000 years ago – when it roamed across the Americas. The company Colossal Biosciences is behind today’s headlines.

This is what UK scientists have discovered – identifying a genetic source of many labradors’ – and some people’s – tendency to overeat. Researchers found that changes in a particular gene, one of the building blocks of biological code that produces the blueprint for how our bodies work, alters the chemical signals that tell our brains we’ve had enough to eat.

My last Inside Science day for a while folks! We’re taking a deep dive into #AI, from high-speed discoveries to the bizarre, burgeoning realm of generative AI fakery.
