   > While combing through the raw DNA sequence near the RT, the agent exclaimed: “[The DNA next to the RT] is spectacular: I can see by eye a tandem repeat array … that's a CRISPR-like … repeat array?!”

   I love that with AI discoveries, we can relive the discoveries from agent transcripts like this.

   I'm sort of imagining future histories involving notable AI events peppered with direct quotes like these.

      My guess is that in the near* future, reasoning will no longer happen in a way that can be neatly decoded as human language.

      *near meaning single digit years, which is far for AI I guess

         That's fine, we just ask them to decode it back in to human language.

               "Let there be light" == Rendering simulation with constant speed that defines physics of time, space, matter down to the subatomic scale.
