Unseen but all around us, the air we breathe in enclosed spaces is crucial to our health and well-being. Indoor air is not simply outdoor air that has been run through a filter: it has its own chemical makeup and a unique combination of particles, gases and microorganisms. Because indoor air has many sources of its own, concentrations of many pollutants can be as high as—or higher than—outdoor levels, especially during everyday activities like cooking or cleaning.

Wow Sam Altman can you replace Dogs with AI for us then?

"When assessing what building occupants are exposed to daily, we can now take these factors into account. These results provide quantitative 'emission factors' that can be incorporated into indoor air quality and exposure models, improving how we simulate real homes where people and pets share the same space. These findings will also help better understand sources of pollution and determine how we can improve the quality of our living environment."

Jokes aside, it sounds like extremely practical science.
