You only see a slight percentage of her whenever she’s out in public and lets us know what she wants to share. How do you know she hasn’t been interested in investing in healthcare herself all along? I’m sorry but I hate this notion that she’s this delicate flower being influenced by an evil demon No. Because some of us are authentic fans that see her as a human. And because I’m not delusional and buy everything she sells, and because I also can tell when just my friends or coworkers have a shift in their life because celebrities are no different than working class people. That’s how I can tell. there is also the fact that..she kind of has admitted it in like multiple interviews. She literally told us. so maybe you don’t know her? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, you’re downplaying her own autonomy and decisions by saying he’s controlling every choice she makes When the album was being made he brought up an idea to her having heard the music, and Gaga could very easily had disagreed with him because it was a suggestion, not something that was forced onto her project. You assume she’s changed when that shift away from being open started way before him due to overexposure and mental health reasons, and her interest in tech is nothing new. If you’re an authentic fan then you must know the amount of tech opportunities she took early in her career, yes? She didn’t just invest in cyber glasses or join Polaroid just because she was bored 1# Samoyed Stan 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But again, I generally follow artists that are extremely active wether they are in the middle of an era or not. Like I'm kinda sure they have others dealing with their socials, but still, with Gaga it's either oh new music or some new paid partnership content and nothing more Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETA: Big picture, it’ll probably make its way to the consumer market, but to get the early ROI within the existing portfolio, the in-house bank is licensing the skin patents out to their industrial, defense (Anduril), possibly surveillance (Palantir), maybe Entertainment (Story.com?) partners to outfit or humanize the look and feel of their robotics products / models … ? but/and to be fair, their investors have many investments across what looks like the pharma/tech/AI space, but obviously some industrial / defense / surveillance anchors as well … so the skincare angle is fascinating when you consider how all of those companies would be able to incorporate, effectually, lab-generated superskin, into their product arsenal (for instance, it looks like three of OuterBio‘s early stage investors invest in Anduril, who sells AI and Robotics systems to the U.S. Dept. of Defense) … then considering OuterBio‘s existing work with living skin samples, it‘s interesting to consider what that means for, effectually, waste management as far as human organs … but, again, I have no idea how any of this works, and all of the aforementioned is just gleaning from existing information, but you’ll probably find tons of fascinating information if you have time for a proper dive ETA: just a brief footnote on the prelim reference points (and on second glance, OuterBio might be Initialized‘s 28th “unicorn”?)

Petie Estie 5,734 Posted Monday at 04:52 AM Share Posted Monday at 04:52 AM OK so it's a biotech company run by michael that is using living skin tissue to test more compounds to find new active ingredients for skin care and stuff. gaga is on the board because they will use the developments in haus labs products. not anything crazy y'all. The AI is just a local model they use on the data they create. Not an LLM like chatGPT. It's just a way for a local machine they own to process the data and suggest new compounds to trial on the living skin tissue.
