I am asking you for a report of no more than 3,000 words with deep analysis of which global sectors are likely to be most and least disrupted by Artificial Intelligence.
The following report and images are the Gemini output from the prompt I entered…
Sectoral Disruption and Economic Resilience 2026 I read the Deutsche Bank report, then ran the prompt against the latest version of Google Gemini 3 Pro. I didn’t have all their criteria, so I entered the basic prompt they had utilized.
Will humans one day merge with artificial intelligence? Futurist Ray Kurzweil predicts a coming “singularity” where humans upload their minds into digital systems, expanding intelligence and potentially achieving immortality. But critics argue that consciousness, creativity, love, and spiritual awareness cannot be reduced to algorithms. This discussion explores brain-computer interfaces, quantum mechanics and the mind, the Ship of Theseus identity paradox, and whether a digital copy of your brain would actually be you. Is AI-driven immortality possible—or does it misunderstand what it means to be human?
Every year the Center sponsors COSM an exclusive national summit on the converging technologies remaking the world as we know it. Visit COSM.TECH (https://cosm.tech/) for information on COSM 2025, November 19–21 at the beautiful Hilton Scottsdale Resort and Spas in Scottsdale, AZ. For more information. Registration will launch mid-July.
The mission of the Walter Bradley Center for Natural and Artificial Intelligence at Discovery Institute is to explore the benefits as well as the challenges raised by artificial intelligence (AI) in light of the enduring truth of human exceptionalism. People know at a fundamental level that they are not machines. But faulty thinking can cause people to assent to views that in their heart of hearts they know to be untrue. The Bradley Center seeks to help individuals—and our society at large—to realize that we are not machines while at the same time helping to put machines (especially computers and AI) in proper perspective.

New research has identified optimal design for artificial habitats to support restoration of oyster reefs, based on a detailed understanding of natural oyster reef geometry. Published in the global journal Nature, the Sydney-based study shows the complex shapes of natural oyster reefs are not random—their structure and arrangement optimize the establishment and survival of developing oysters and their protection from predators.
Oysters are really “ecosystem engineers,” building their own reefs made up of living oysters and the discarded shells of previous generations, explains lead author of the study, Dr. Juan Esquivel-Muelbert of Macquarie University.
“But reefs aren’t just piles of shells or skeletons,” says Dr. Esquivel-Muelbert. “Reefs are finely tuned 3D systems. Their shape controls who lives, who dies and how fast the reef grows.”
When HHMI Investigator Amita Sehgal started studying sleep 25 years ago, the topic elicited a yawn from most biologists. “In the year 2000, if I had suggested to my department that we hire people working on sleep, they would have laughed at me,” says Sehgal, a molecular biologist and neuroscientist at the University of Pennsylvania. “The thinking was that sleep is not something that neuroscientists do; psychologists study sleep and dreams.” Now, more than two decades later, sleep science has finally woken up.
Biologists around the world are now studying sleep in everything from fruit flies to jellyfish to understand the fundamental molecular and cellular mechanisms that drive slumber and answer the age-old question of why we sleep.
“Sleep is widely conserved across the animal kingdom and so it must have some basic function that is the same across species, and so what is that?” Sehgal says. “We’re finally getting to a point where we are recognizing a few basic principles about sleep.”
In a new study, published in Cell, researchers describe a newfound mechanism for creating proteins in a giant DNA virus, comparable to a mechanism in eukaryotic cells. The finding challenges the dogma that viruses lack protein synthesis machinery, and blurs the line between cellular life and viruses.
Protein production is accomplished in cellular life by decoding messenger RNA (mRNA) sequences in a process referred to as translation. In fact, most genes have some function related to protein synthesis. However, viruses are not and do not contain cells.
“In contrast to living organisms, viruses cannot replicate independently and rely on a host cell to perform many of the biological processes required to reproduce. Although viruses encode proteins involved in DNA replication and transcription, the dogma is that all viruses share a universal dependence on the host cell translation machinery for viral protein synthesis,” explain the authors of the new study.

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have developed a method to predict when someone is likely to develop symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease using a single blood test. In a study published in Nature Medicine, the researchers demonstrated that their models predicted the onset of Alzheimer’s symptoms within a margin of three to four years.
This method could have implications both for clinical trials developing preventive Alzheimer’s treatments and for eventually identifying individuals likely to benefit from these treatments.
More than seven million Americans live with Alzheimer’s disease, with health and long-term care costs for Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia projected to reach nearly $400 billion in 2025, according to the Alzheimer’s Association. This massive public health burden currently has no cure, but predictive models could help efforts to develop treatments that prevent or slow the onset of Alzheimer’s symptoms.
As aging populations and rising diabetes rates drive an increase in chronic wounds, more patients face the risk of amputations. UC Riverside researchers have developed an oxygen-delivering gel capable of healing injuries that might otherwise progress to limb loss.
Injuries that fail to heal for more than a month are considered chronic wounds. They affect an estimated 12 million people annually worldwide, and around 4.5 million in the U.S. Of these, about one in five patients will ultimately require a life-altering amputation.
The new gel, tested in animal models, targets what researchers believe is a root cause of many chronic wounds: a lack of oxygen in the deepest layers of the damaged tissue. Without sufficient oxygen, wounds languish in a prolonged state of inflammation, allowing bacteria to flourish and tissue to deteriorate rather than regenerate.
