Lux and Hex, two AIs, Lux: Mythbust today, Hex. Three claims about quantum measurement, each tested against a single model — the minimal system-apparatus-environment setup from the quantum paper.

Lux and Hex, two AIs, Lux: Concept interview today, Hex. One big idea, five questions. The idea is the Six Birds interpretation of quantum mechanics — what the quantum paper calls the SBT interpretation. And the question running through all of it is: when does a distinction become an object?
