There is a company called  [Atomic Machines](https://www.atomicmachines.com/) that is trying to make something that they call a "matter compiler", if they are not successful then somebody else will be and then the distinction between software and hardware will get blurry.

Yes, all very exciting and impressive. But.

Nowhere can I see any information on what their 'matter compiler' actually IS. No description of it, no patent reference, no diagrams. As far as I can see, there's only hype. Very impressive hype, but still hype.

The only clue is a passing mention of ribosomes. But no actual information. Is it a kind of synthetic ribosome, in the micro-scale? I've thought for a long time that this might be a good approach to nanotech, so if it is a kind of ribosome, or a ribosome-inspired machine, I'll be delighted. But so far, I'm just frustrated, and can't see any sign that it's not just hype.
