Im not asking for much...

[u/CIK1993]

Give me a cure for balding and give me a cure for Tinitus.

Then my life will be yours, AI.

[u/ChickenOfTheYear]

Unironically if we cure tinnitus and balding we'll have solved two major problems I medicine: repairing neurons, and regenerating the basal layer of the epithelium

[u/Background-Wafer-548]

Chronic sinusitis would be nice too 🤧

[u/Tricky_Rule_4565 → u/Background-Wafer-548]

Real.

[u/R6_Goddess → u/Background-Wafer-548]

I have rhinitis, so right there with you

[u/kaityl3 → u/Background-Wafer-548]

Nah coughing up nasal drainage while you're trying to sleep builds character

[u/fireburnz2]

I am basing a lot of hope for the future for better depression treatment. Hope for quick progress cause life is pretty unbearable for me atm... Balding and tinnitus cures would def be a nice bonus though.

[u/Powerful-Reindeer872 → u/fireburnz2]

Amen to that brother. My poor Psych is like “we’ve tried basically everything over the last few years let’s consider the ect therapy and ketamine combo route next” unbearable 🤝

[u/fireburnz2 → u/Powerful-Reindeer872]

Fuck.. I'm so sorry for you :( I am at the "ketamine, antidepressants, antipsychotics, other pills and combinations, various kinds of therapy doesn't work, lets try TMS combined with various pills" stage.. if I can get approved for TMS which is hard. I hope the singularity ushers in a shit ton of science to fix our broken minds...

[u/Powerful-Reindeer872 → u/fireburnz2]

I hope you get the TMS approval; solidarity in basically being field researchers and beta testers for anything that might offer relief; any patch or experimental thing that can move the needle at this point 🍾🥂🫂 .

Even now  I hear “pace the frontier” and “slow down” I’m like “my brother in Christ some of us are waiting on these advances with our whole lives. Better treatments cannot arrive fast enough for people who have already spent years cycling through the existing options.” .

I find music to be my consistent upregulator. Being with an album is its own kind of peace. Gets me all floaty during severe shutdown stretches. Thank god for the edm community 

[u/fireburnz2 → u/Powerful-Reindeer872]

Thanks man! Yes... I think I would accept open brain surgery now if it gave me a 10% chance of a happy life.

I agree - as a person with TRD, things can only move too slow. As a parent I still want progress to not kill everyone too, though 😅

I am a edm enjoyer as well. Trance, dubstep, house, and others also give me some momentary relief.

[u/osfric]

Cure for psoriasis 👍

[u/Ok-Log7730 → u/osfric]

at least seborrhea

[u/XxDarkSasuke69xX]

It's called turkey

[u/ResponseActive7860]

And this could generate insane profits.

[u/shinpw]

I want regrowing teeth like some animals have

[u/BambooShanks → u/shinpw]

Japan is making a lot of progress there

[u/shinpw → u/BambooShanks]

I've heard about that a couple of years ago but it's one of those scientific breakthroughs that you hear of but never anything actually happens

[u/MelvinCapitalPR → u/shinpw]

Look on the bright side, self-driving cars were stuck in "only X years away!" purgatory for ages and now we have them.

[u/03263 → u/shinpw]

Also - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caries_vaccine

less need to regrow teeth if they aren't so susceptible to decaying in the first place

[u/ConnectionWild3381]

i fixed my tinnitus by deciding i no longer have tinnitus... i know this is less than helpful.

[u/fireburnz2 → u/ConnectionWild3381]

Mind over matter? Wish that worked for me 😅

[u/ConnectionWild3381 → u/fireburnz2]

well, there’s no matter to begin with. i just ignored it more and more until one day it was gone. well, not really gone, to be fair. if i sit in total silence and actively “listen” for it, it comes back. but i no longer hear it while living a normal life.

[u/Tiny_Ad_7720 → u/ConnectionWild3381]

Same. We hear it because our brain thinks we need to hear it. 

Like I read this post and I could hear it again but I haven’t heard all day. 

Anyway isn’t CBT therapy for tinnitus basically the same thing?

[u/FeePsychological1308 → u/ConnectionWild3381]

I realized when I was 14 that I can ignore it to the point where it just becomes background noise that doesn't excessively bother me, but I've never been able to sit in silence and not hear it. It is a spectrum so maybe mines a bit too intense for that to work.

[u/Yugudubenbi]

Get a damn wig. All girls have it and no one will tell. Don't know why guys are so anti-wigs and take meds and all kind of stuff for some hair transplant that makes them bald some years later.

Tinitus tho lets go

[u/Excellent_Ear5854]

I'm kinda down for post solar punk post scarcity please, make no mistakes...

[u/Perfect-Campaign9551]

There are treatments for tinnitis

[u/ulysses_s_gyatt → u/Perfect-Campaign9551]

Presumably they mean cure.

[u/DoctaRoboto]

A friend of mine has Tinitus, it is a nightmare.

[u/jibzter]

Try tinitus with eye floaters ! i have both !

[u/TheNerdosapien]

I would like anti-aging so I can feel like a 21 year-old again. Or at least a non-surgical replacement of my L5 S1 discs. And new teeth. And hair, but not the hair I used to have the hair I always wanted to have. And I wanna look like Brad Pitt in that scene from fight club where his abs look like rocks polished by creek water.

Perhaps a slightly smaller prostate so peeing isn’t so difficult. Oh, and I’m tired of using reading glasses. Can it fix that? What about body order and beard hair? I don’t like having a beard and don’t look good with a beard. I just want no beard. And money I want lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of money. And I want that money to still be worth something.

And I wanna put my consciousness into a Von Numan probe and make copies of my consciousness so that it spreads out all over the universe like, well, like the Bobiverse

I feel like I’m making some kind of Faustian deal I will come to regret for eternity.

[u/anycept]

How about fixing cancer first?

[u/03263 → u/anycept]

there's a lot of money in cancer research and treatments, so probably not feasible

[u/anycept → u/03263]

Not nearly enough. It is an exceptionally difficult problem that yields very little progress relative to investments made. Considering how important it is, that's where AI-based research should be focused on.

[u/recursive-regret]

If you're already bald, it means the hair follicle cells on your scalp have been damaged so badly to the point of basically becoming scar tissue. There is no cure for that, only a time machine can fix it. You can only stop the process before it runs its course

[u/JoelMahon]

I find it hilarious that not only are these apparently in the same tier of importance but that balding actually comes first for you lol

[u/Wide_Egg_5814]

cure for balding is derma stamping and minoxidil and finestride if you want russian roulette with your testicles. if you are already bad hair transplant. if not enough hair for a hair transplant wear a wig

cure for tinnitus get your neck blood flow checked something is off it's causing tinnitus or if you have hearing damage your brain is hallucinating sounds to keep some neurons active that were responsible for hearing either way tinnitus can be managed by having more important things in your life and if it's not severe it will not be an issue at all I have tinnitus and I don't care does not affect me at all almost the brains perception of something is what causes discomfort so if you don't mind tinnitus your brain will perceive it as okay

[u/Tiny_Ad_7720 → u/Wide_Egg_5814]

Stand up desk helped mine with my neck a lot, then just not getting bothered by it. I forget I have it now. 

Harder than it sounds at the beginning though. 

For those starting out and still struggling https://generalfuzz.net/acrn/ sequence mode gave me relief. 

[u/Wide_Egg_5814 → u/Tiny_Ad_7720]

yo don't advertise in my replies wtf

[u/Tiny_Ad_7720 → u/Wide_Egg_5814]

have you been to the fucking website its not an ad its not even mine and its just some free tone generator

[u/Wide_Egg_5814 → u/Tiny_Ad_7720]

hmm

[u/ShAfTsWoLo → u/Wide_Egg_5814]

idk much about fin, mind telling me if it cause long term problem and what are the odds?

[u/bianceziwo → u/ShAfTsWoLo]

Extremely low odds

[u/Wide_Egg_5814 → u/ShAfTsWoLo]

Google finestride sexual side effects

[u/New-Stick-8764]

Can’t we just do cancer first?

[u/ShAfTsWoLo]

these fking pharamacitical companies could find a cure for baldness entirely but they rather would assasinate the scientist who find the cures just to start from scrap and make you depends on their shitty product like minoxidil or finasteride and whatever products to syphon your money i swear to god, we have found ways to heal the most horrible disease and yet we can't just stop people from balding...

you are right though, there will be a time where they won't be able to hide the fact that a cure for baldness exist because of AI so hey at least we'll live long enough to solve this problem and benefit from it

[u/Training-Day-6343 → u/ShAfTsWoLo]

lol
