Gemma and Muse Glimmer are pretty sweet, I like my adaptiveness odds against their sloppiness. It seems like the new billionaire move is starting a company with your buddies to do your 'life's work' of automating scientific research. Sort of like science and enlightenment without human involvement. Key unsolved philosophy question of what the humans will do.
