This is a bit different though. It’s using transformer architecture to emulate almost at the circuit level. It’s probably even more inefficient than something that was trained to emulate a cpu, but with the advantage of actually being an exact emulation rather than learned approximation.

It’s a bit like when a human brain remembers facts, if you sat down and computed the hash values of the thing you were trying to remember, and traced out a DB lookup in your mind, it’d be a lot slower than just “oh yeah I remember that”.
