    PC Gamer regurgitating the abstract of a random research paper makes baby jesus cry.

        I don’t know why but this makes me picture some dusty old-school newsroom with that one guy in all the TV shows smoking a cigar acting kind of like an asshole, and he looks up from the rough draft and while pointing at it with the cigar half-yells “have ChatGPT take a crack at it, maybe it’ll spice things up!”

      Of course: baby Jesus hates popularization of science or engineering. Baby Jesus loves your money and obedience.

      Ehh. Old 8-bit machines had no trouble with the veritable Gordian knots written by kids in their bedrooms back in the day, so any chip’s gonna be fine.

      That’s not to say this chip wouldn’t run it better…

      I thought the same thing about soft, bend-able screens. But that became a fairly big thing.

          I’m pretty sure this internet thing is going to turn out to be a fad.

          quantum computing once they break meaningful encryption, not 2 bit RSA. it’ll be super overhyped, become super important, and then it’ll settle down a bit once everyone switches to new encryption algorithms

    The one advantage we have over the machines is that their chips are destructible. Can we stop this research?

        We can start farming these computers to feed our ever growing population. We just need to build a simulation they can live in, so they don’t get stale.

      “almost” indestructable, i bet some sort of acid or lava could do the job if not a diamond laced sanding wheel.

    This is interesting in a “how far can you launch a pumpkin using an air canon” way, not a “you only need to cool this down to -40C to make it super conduct” way. It’s a fun experiment with nearly zero practical purpose outside of some very niche edge cases. Wearable computing is probably the only realistic one at the moment for a CPU that you can stretch a little and runs incredibly slow.

      Wearable computing is a huge market if you can literally embed this into clothing.

    That’s kinda interesting. My first thought on seeing that image, though, was ‘ramen + autism = good!’
