What the hell does "infinitely fast" even MEAN in this context? They can be parallelized easily? The computational cost amortizes well? That it literally requires zero operations to generate output?
This may be something interesting if it packs a lot of the features claimed. But there are a LOT of ill-defined claims on the website, and a fair bit of time spent pointing to the state of current research in OTHER algorithms/proposals as if open questions are an automatic disqualification ("[H]ow can you know whether such a generator has enough capacity for your large job? You don’t know.").
I don't think the guy is a crank, per se-- just excited. But this is the sort of stuff that makes me think that he hasn't done the requisite level of research required before claiming a breakthrough.
