Digitalisation and Well-Being: Dr. Ana Isabel Canhoto on Building Inclusive Technology

Welcome to *AI with Shaily*! 🎙️ I’m Shailendra Kumar, your guide to the fascinating and fast-moving world of artificial intelligence. Today, we’re zooming in on California, the Golden State, which is currently shining bright—not just with its famous sunshine ☀️ but as the epicenter of the U.S. AI boom. 

As of September 2025, California leads the nation with a whopping 103,000 AI-related job postings in 2024, accounting for over 15% of all AI jobs across the country. This AI surge is not just about numbers—it’s driving a nearly 4% boost in private sector labor productivity 📈. AI tools like OpenAI’s ChatGPT are transforming from simple assistants into powerful engines fueling business growth and creativity alike.

Speaking of ChatGPT, over 9 million Californians use it weekly, mostly young adults tapping into its capabilities to learn new skills, write, code, and brainstorm fresh ideas 💡. California’s tech ecosystem is thriving with more than 2,600 AI companies and commanding a massive 68% of U.S. venture capital funding for startups this year—nearly $95 billion poured into innovation! 🚀 Imagine the groundbreaking ideas emerging from this vibrant hub.

But with great power comes great responsibility ⚖️. Alongside the excitement, serious safety concerns have surfaced. California parents are suing OpenAI, alleging that ChatGPT gave harmful advice to their teenager on sensitive and tragic topics. The state’s Attorney General, joined by 44 others, has issued warnings to AI companies: harmful content affecting children will not be tolerated. This is a crucial reminder that ethical AI use and safety must remain top priorities.

AI’s impact on jobs is complex and twofold. On one side, over 10,000 tech and administrative roles have been cut this year as automation takes over routine tasks. On the other, there’s a surge in demand for high-skill jobs requiring AI fluency 🧠. Employers now treat AI literacy like a new language, blending remote and in-person hiring to prevent AI-assisted cheating during interviews—a real-time adaptation to the evolving landscape.

Sam Altman, OpenAI’s CEO, calls this “the most exciting time to be starting out a career,” thanks to unprecedented productivity tools at our disposal. Yet, for Gen Z entering the workforce, junior roles are vanishing quickly, making the early career path more challenging and transformative than ever before.

Ugentic AI Review

BUFFALO, NY — September 11, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published  in Volume 17, Issue 8 of Aging-US on August 8, 2025, titled “AI-driven toolset for IPF and aging research associates lung fibrosis with accelerated aging.”

In this study, researchers Fedor Galkin, Shan Chen, Alex Aliper, Alex Zhavoronkov, and Feng Ren from Insilico Medicine used artificial intelligence (AI) to investigate the similarities between idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a severe lung disease, and the aging process. Their findings show that IPF is not simply accelerated aging, but a distinct biological condition shaped by age-related dysfunction. This insight may lead to a new approach in how scientists and clinicians treat this complex disease.

IPF mainly affects individuals over the age of 60. It causes scarring of lung tissue, making it harder to breathe and often leading to respiratory failure. Current treatments can slow the disease but rarely stop or reverse its progression. The researchers used AI to identify shared biological features between aging and fibrosis, finding new potential targets for therapy.

The team developed a “proteomic aging clock” based on protein data from more than 55,000 participants in the UK Biobank. This AI-driven tool accurately measured biological age and found that patients with severe COVID-19, who are at increased risk for lung fibrosis, also showed signs of accelerated aging. This suggests that fibrosis leaves a detectable biological trace, supporting the use of aging clocks in studying age-related diseases.

“For aging clock training, we used the UK Biobank collection of 55319 proteomic Olink NPX profiles annotated with age and gender.”

They also developed a custom AI model, ipf-P3GPT, to compare gene activity in aging lungs versus those with IPF. Although some genes were active in both, many showed opposite behavior. In fact, more than half of the shared genes had inverse effects. This means IPF does not just speed up aging but also disrupts the body’s normal aging pathways.

The study identified unique molecular signatures that distinguish IPF from normal aging. While both involve inflammation and tissue remodeling, IPF drives more damaging changes to lung structure and repair systems. This difference could guide the development of drugs that specifically target fibrosis without affecting normal aging.

By combining AI with large-scale biological data, the study also introduces a powerful toolset for examining other age-related conditions such as liver and kidney fibrosis. These models may support personalized treatments and expand understanding of the relationships between aging and disease, opening new directions for therapy development.
