GPT-5.6 "Sol" designs CPU that runs Doom in Turing Complete

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

An AI enthusiast successfully ran the classic game Doom on a custom CPU designed by GPT-5.6 "Sol". The AI model, named Codex-R32, generated the CPU's design using primitive logic components within the Turing Complete game environment. This demonstration showcases the advanced capabilities of AI in not only software development but also in the creation of functional hardware designs. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates AI's growing capability in hardware design, potentially accelerating custom chip development and complex system integration.
