They have an example that calculates the expected information gained by truth booths and all of the top ones are giving more than one bit. How can this be? It is a yes/no question a max of 1 bit should be possible

This deal is odd. OpenAI gets AMD chips but also a chance to own a big part of AMD if things go well. It makes AMD look stronger on paper, but it is risky. These kinds of deals can hide problems and make a bubble. It feels more like hype than real long-term value.

But he chose not to use the exact wording from the Elastic Search license, which clearly says "third parties." Instead, he wrote his own license, and now it is not clear if I am allowed to self-host. In my opinion that is a bad decision.

Are you sure it is the same Ariadne? The paper you linked is from 2002 and does not mention aperiodic or "Cryptographic Virtual Machine"

I am having trouble understanding the main purpose of this protocol. After looking at your code example, I want to ask: what is the benefit of using this instead of an AEAD (Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data) that is already available in Rust? What specific security guarantee does this give me that would help when I am building protocols?
