To test this assumption, [Duncan Haldane] employed three of the more highly praised LLMs to assist with circuit board design ... decoupling capacitors and random resistors just about everywhere.

In this three part video series we watch [Dirk Herrendoerfer] go from scraps to a nice 3D printed assembly as he iterates through the design of a pen plotter for making circuit boards.

However, these computers must contend with random thermodynamic noise, like a piece of a circuit warming up and unexpectedly turning a 0 into a 1. This noise causes errors – but Patrick Coles ...
