Years ago at Disney Imagineering I built a novel sensor to make almost anything interactive. As a test you can put a single wire in the soil, and touching a leaf could play a note. I called this project Botanicus Interacticus.
The physical world is full of signals and hidden behaviors, and we've never learned to read and understand them. That's why we built Archetype AI. Newton, our foundation model, finally lets us listen.
