Supermassive dark stars powered by dark matter annihilation can collapse into quasi-stars whose envelopes expand and cool to match the observed properties of many JWST Little Red Dots while bypassing the restrictive conditions of nuclear-powered supermassive star formation.
X-ray non-detection of little red dots requires both Compton-thick gas columns (~1e25 cm^-2) and intrinsically weak X-ray emission with bolometric correction k_bol,X ≳ 30.
Magnetic pressure up to 100 times gas pressure is required in AGN disks to sustain the longest inferred quasar lifetimes exceeding 10,000 years at high redshift.
