The teeth regrowth thing was only two years ago.
https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/physiology/articles/10.3389/fphys.2014.00036/full
It's been in the works for over ten years. Here is a paper on research into it from 2014.
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3000521/
Here's another one from 2010.
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1882761608000070#cesec60
And another from 2008.
thats how research works unfortunately
Absolutely, which was my point. That the tooth thing wasn't "only two years ago" it's actually been in the research and development process for probably over 15 years at this point, with a long way to go.
At this point it's a race between teeth, fusion and GTA 6. Place your bets, people.
I bet GTA 6, if only because those investors are going to be more bloodthirsty about it coming out eventually.
Teeth and fusion need approval to be safe from the...government...
I withdraw my bet.
GTA6 is far more achievable. Like it doesn't even matter what they release, that would qualify. To get this out of the lab, it would have to actually work.
And fusion really isn't happening for decades.
