   > 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.

      Don't take agent transcripts too seriously. They can be entertaining but aren't necessarily representative of the hyperdimensional reasoning used internally by LLMs. In many cases what you're seeing is more like a rationalization after the fact.
