AI Designed This Linux Computer With 843 Parts And Dual-PCBs In Just A Week - And It Even Booted The First Time
AI-Built Linux Computer Boots on First Try—And It’s Just the Beginning Can artificial intelligence design a working computer from scratch? The answer, thanks to a Los Angeles startup, is a resounding yes. In a breakthrough that’s turning heads across the tech industry, Quilter AI has unveiled a Linux-running machine—designed almost entirely by AI—that powered on flawlessly during its first boot. Built with 843 components across two printed circuit boards (PCBs), the system ran Debian without a hitch, all engineered in just one week with only 38.5 hours of human oversight. Credit: Quilter AI This isn’t just a proof-of-concept—it’s a glimpse into the future of hardware development, where AI doesn’t replace engineers but dramatically amplifies their speed and precision. From Concept to Boot Screen in 7 Days Project Speedrun, Quilter AI’s ambitious internal initiative, set out to test the limits of autonomous hardware design. The goal was straightforward: use AI to design a functional Linux co…
