This article gave me an interesting thought. If you believe these companies are going to birth true all powerful AGI than we are in a simulation already. Which is a pretty useless data point. So my new thought is what if they can make a minor deity? Good or bad, this is far more interesting.

Muse Spark 1.2 is a coding-focused update to Muse Spark 1.1, with improvements in code generation, complex debugging, codebase understanding, and end-to-end developer workflows. In Muse Spark 1.2, we significantly scaled up training compute on coding tasks while expanding training environment diversity. The model also maintains its strength in other key areas like general agents.

It would be a major break through alone if they came up with a useful and lasting metric to track what "double" is: "Genesis Mission has the goal of doubling the productivity and impact of U.S. research and development by pairing scientists with intelligent systems that reason, simulate, and experiment at extraordinary speed."

Re:Children of the Geissler Tube

Core claim: “Geissler tubes as a computer ancestor”
I was really surprised at this and had to verify it “: Fair: Geissler’s 1857 gas-discharge tubes popularized controlled glow discharges and directly led to Crookes tubes, cathode rays, and gas-discharge lighting. Earlier glow experiments existed (Hauksbee, Faraday), but Geissler standardized the form that kicked off the tech tree. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geissler_tube”
It is odd that Heinrich Geissler does not have a bigger place in history. I guess he was just a “toy” builder…
Also interesting: Most keyword searches treat ß ≈ ss, so “Geißler” and “Geissler” have the same search results.
