Korean text reads "임플란트 시대는 끝, 붙이면 치아 재생?" ("Is the implant era over? Regenerate teeth just by applying?") from 건강정보TV (Health Info TV), visually representing the research breakthrough in regenerating dental tissue rather than using metal implants. > > "Domestic research team announces the end of the implant era. A joint research team from KIST and Seoul National University has developed a "bioactive patch" that simply adheres to the gums and allows dental internal tissues to grow on their own. Unlike metal implants that" ### Discussion #2 by @ECansabunc93820 > **Author:** [@ECansabunc93820](https://x.com/ECansabunc93820) > **Metrics:** 115 likes · 6 retweets · 4 comments · 26.4K views > **Posted:** 2026-10-04T20:49:03+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/ECansabunc93820/status/2106849099106644204](https://x.com/ECansabunc93820/status/2106849099106644204) > **Visual Context:** A dramatic night sky over Ireland reveals a bright explosion and a distinct shape in the clouds, consistent with reports of an unidentified aerial phenomenon, as credited by photographer Adam Rory Porter (www.adamroryporter.com). > > "Ireland An explosion in the sky and The object that appears afterwards" ### Discussion #3 by @FredaDuan > **Author:** [@FredaDuan](https://x.com/FredaDuan) > **Metrics:** 110 likes · 14 retweets · 8 comments · 15.1K views > **Posted:** 2026-10-04T21:00:22+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/FredaDuan/status/2106851949400469887](https://x.com/FredaDuan/status/2106851949400469887) > **Visual Context:** The image is a detailed infographic titled "Drug Discovery and Development Pipeline," outlining the typical timelines, costs, and attrition rates from target identification to an approved medicine over 10-15 years and $1-2.5 billion, with a 5-10% overall success rate across stages including Target Identification & Validation, Hit Discovery, Hit-to-Lead, Lead Optimization, Preclinical Development, Clinical Trials (Phases I-III), Regulatory Review, and Approved Drug. It complements the post's discussion of AI drug discovery (AIDD) as a regime change by visualizing the lengthy, costly traditional pipeline—highlighting inefficiencies like low success rates and years-long preclinical stages—that AI-driven methods aim to compress and improve. > > "AI Drug Discovery Is Becoming a Bottleneck Trade I get excited when an industry starts going through a real regime change. AI drug discovery (“AIDD”) increasingly looks like one of those moments.
