Why We're Living in a Biological Singularity With Ben Lamm | MOONSHOTS Live #297
Peter DiamandisSalim IsmailDave BlundinAlexander Wissner-GrossBen Lamm
Colossal is now worth over $10 billion with more than four spin-offs, while AI connects fragmented research and addresses 40–60% replication failure through standardized language.That data infrastructure may matter more than the model itself as comparative genomics spans thousands of genomes.Colossal has surpassed 300 edits at over 90% efficiency and is testing 1,000, with large-fragment DNA synthesis and a fully extrauterine mammalian birth within 24 months as catalysts amid ethical and regulatory constraints.
Why This Billionaire Is Bringing Back the Dire Wolf, Woolly Mammoth & More w/ Ben Lamm & Salim | 165

Colossal’s dire-wolf launch is a platform proof: 20 edits, including 15 ancient variants, produced healthy animals expressing phenotypes driven by genes lost for 12,000 years.Its integrated software-biology stack, artificial-womb program, and prospective technology, nature-credit, and government-service businesses create multiple catalysts, while execution, governance, and taxonomy remain material risks.
