Enjoyed this! I would love to be able to go back and review the words after completing the puzzle. I got one with exactly 1 second left, and wanted to tell my partner, but I can't remember which word it was now.
I just did some googling and found at least one app to do exactly this on Android. This is now my phone background!!

(I used this, but it does leave a small "please purchase" banner at the top, until you pay: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nuko.livew...)

Very interesting to see the way other strings of tokens are being applied to the ideas for LLMs. DNA is a great candidate for that
Of course you don't need to store all the raw data though. Processing it and then throwing it away would allow you to churn through much larger parts of the breath this way without the absurd costs they calculate in this article.

I should have started out by saying this looks really neat, which is why I downloaded it to try out on my phone! :) thanks for sharing! Sorry my only comment was a criticism/question.

Looking forward to trying it out on the computer instead!

The android app sign up page seems to want me to enter my Google username and password _inside the app,_ in what looks like a web form, but as a user I have no way to tell if the app is snooping on my password.

It seems like Apps usually navigate away to a sign in, and then navigate back. Is that pattern hard to implement? Is the issue about cross platform support? Thanks
