Hey sunshine! Thanks for all you do here! I'm actually tentatively trying to get back into hardware a bit and thinking about messing with a threaded interpreter.

I have seen an AI model fine tune or two on hugging face that are targeting reverse engineering binaries. I think that may be one major key towards more broad possibilities with linux mobile devices. We don't have the source code for most of the hardware modules of the orphaned kernels and the hardware is undocumented. Reverse engineering every device is far too time consuming for humans, but for a well developed agent, maybe it is possible to map every register and decompile the binary in productive ways.

When I first started exploring AI two years ago, I thought the FORTH language would be the game changer for LLMs. I still think that is a good idea, where an agent is not trying to use the LLM to match assembly, a higher level language, or compilers, but instead is only mapping registers and connections in hardware.

Admitting my naïveté, I do not know why one cannot fully map any given hardware by bruit force. Or at least when a functioning binary is present.

I don't catch every post here by any stretch, and perhaps you or others have been posting stuff like this. The thought is just on my mind presently. I think this type of content on the mind of more people might produce more meaningful change as the orphaned kernel/modules is the primary issue deprecating all mobile devices and preventing ongoing hardware support.
