Curing All Human Diseases & the Future of Health & Technology | Mark Zuckerberg & Dr. Priscilla Chan

In this episode, my guests are Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta
(formerly Facebook, Inc.), and his wife, Dr. Priscilla Chan, M.D.,
co-founder and co-CEO of the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI). We
discuss how CZI plans to cure all human diseases by the end of this
century by funding transformative projects and technologies at the
intersection of biology, engineering, and artificial intelligence
(AI). They describe their funding and development of Biohubs and
the progress already underway to accelerate the understanding of
cell function, pathways, and disease. Then, Mark discusses social
media, its impact on mental health, and new tools for online
experiences. We also discuss Meta’s virtual reality (VR), augmented
and mixed reality tech, and how AI will soon completely transform
our online and physical life experiences. This episode ought to
interest anyone curious about biology, medicine, mental health, AI,
and the future of technology and humanity. For show notes,
