I asked Opus 5.5 to build a working computer from scratch. And holy fuck did it deliver. 277k logic gates in JS, an OS on top, and games on the OS. This isn't a mockup... it's a computer. Run it:

This was done from one prompt, completely autonomously, over ~30 hours in ultracode mode. Prompt: “build a working computer from scratch, entirely in code, starting from individual logic gates. design the CPU, the memory, an assembler, a tiny operating system, and a game that runs on it. everything has to be real, the game has to run on your gates, not in javascript pretending. visualize the whole thing in 3D so i can play the game, then zoom all the way down through the chips into the gates and watch the signals flow while it runs. treat it like you're proving you could have invented computing yourself. go all out.”

Btw, my next set of demos are going to be even crazier than this

you could call it Claudeputer?

I like this

Now tell it to order the circuit boards and print the parts in the 3D printer 😅 Impressive!

This is not too far from what I'm having it do next...

make it build a Commodore 64 with smurfs

This is actually insane. There’s no chance OpenAI can catch up to this model… They’re falling apart. I would pay to see how hectic their office is right now

thats very cool indeed.

Pretty cool 👀 Do you have @XMoney set up? Would love to support what you’re building.

@XMoney I do, but if this is a crypto thing, no thx

wholy cow

277k gates from scratch and it still bothered to put games on top, that's the flex

cool, i'll have games running on mine by sunday

Matt what the fuck

Claude gets all the credit

It’s truly an insane model

we spent forty years teaching kids how computers work and the computer just learned how to computer

277k logic gates in JS is a much better model test than another todo app.

This is insane!! 😳😱🤩

277k logic gates in javascript. the computer works but the browser tab deserves hazard pay

My computer is going to need its own IT department.

30 hours without once asking "want me to keep going?" is the actual breakthrough here

just zoomed from NANDTRIS into a live NAND gate. the game is actually running on those 277k gates. I am not okay 😭

Will I be able to watch Netflix on this computer later? Matt

the constraint is the supervision: 'the game has to run on your gates' makes every layer checkable by the one above it, game exercises the OS, OS exercises the CPU, CPU exercises the gates. that's what 30 unattended hours run on. long builds stall exactly where nothing can check the layer below.

277k logic gates in JS and it still boots games - a year ago this was a semester long university project Whats the first thing that broke when you ran it

Is the OS actualy scheduling processes, or running a fixed loop?

now we just need to be able to print chips at home. 2nm home lab when

dude that's so cool.

One prompt, completely autonomous, plus 30 hours in ultracode mode. That is not a prompt, that is a work order

Now build a computer running a computer running Minecraft running a computer running Minecraft!

how did you optimize the gate count?

woz built the apple 1 from about 60 chips and 4k of ram by hand; opus did 277k gates in 30 hours from one prompt.

This is awesome. So cool that you can zoom into the chips and see the gates working in real time

get an open source model to run on your computer and os built by claude. then get that open source model to build a computer and os inside the computer and os built by claude running on your computer and os
