Graphene Neurons: At the beginning, the spidery trace of a quite normal pencil on a eventually then crumpled piece of paper. The new ideas of a young programmer are discarded by an all-powerful computer system. But the analog thoughts develop a surprising life of their own.

To wondered why, in nearly all systems, in the default setting, it was always a woman’s face that visualized the counterpart.
The conversation with the digital assistant had been very unpleasant. To had even reached out for the normally hardly used keyboard a few times, and that not because of a special character that was not properly resolved by the speech recognition.
He had already realized that it would not be so easy to explain the project to the system, but, before he could submit a grant application, he needed a calculation, and if everything had gone well, he would have gotten a reliable prognosis right away — that’s what the system was for, after all. But it had not gone well.
The system simply did not understand that one could also calculate with pencil and paper. Of course, AlRith and all the tools they had developed here at the institute could be used to write highly efficient functional algorithms. But sometimes you could just have a good idea without a computers help. Of course, new hardware models could also be computed on the highly potent classical machines. In the beginning, quantum computers were also simulated on existing machines. But there were leap innovations. Something really new could also be fundamentally different. The fact that it could not be simulated on the current supercomputers did not automatically mean that it could not work.
Leap innovation. It wasn’t just the next logical step. It was a whole lot of steps at once. Of course, there was also the possibility of failure. But perhaps he shouldn’t have said that.
Probably what he had in mind was somehow like an attempt to convince a system that thought it had found a solution for everything — and from a certain point of view the system did have a solution for everything — that there were also solutions outside its imaginary space. Was that possible?
“You just have to accept that,” Efrie said, “no one is going to give you half a million simply because you think you have a good idea.”
To looked into his coffee. She was right. Of course she was right.
“Well, I can help you out a little,” Efrie said, “got some spare capacity, I can give it to you.”
To smiled. That was an offer. Efrie was the best on the team. Two or three days from her was more than start-up funding from the grant fund.
A new project, that was always like diving into a lively whirlpool. There was so much liveliness and joy. That made him euphoric every time.
