Point of interest: The co-founder of Ginkgo is Tom Knight--the same Tom Knight who designed the Symbolics lisp machine, the Knight keyboard, and transactional memory (which later became software transactional memory). A few years before he started Ginkgo he had a lab at MIT where he was building NAND gates out of bacterial DNA. I expect Ginkgo will do just fine bringing AI to the lab.
