Making something relatable to the layman on the street out of this technology is obviously at the limits of marketing and imagination. There&#x27;s a far more relatable story in there somewhere, but I&#x27;m not seeing it right now. Unfortunately, if you can&#x27;t explain it to the layman, you can&#x27;t get more funding, which is why they push stories like this, instead of just trusting the institutions to spend research funding wisely.…</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2110.02335/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
