This comma was found repeatedly through computer aid, and the name ''technologisma'' keeps the connection to technology without adding anything arbitrary. This is, mathematically speaking, a very efficient comma, even if very complex.


It was originally named '''chatgptsma''' (and its associated temperament, '''chatgptsmic''') by [[Praveen Venkataramana]] and [[User:Tristanbay|Tristan Bay]] in 2024 as a joke. Following a significant amount of negative reception from other members of the xenharmonic/microtonal community about this name, a vote was held to change the name of the comma to one of several others or to keep it the same. The name "technologisma" won this vote.
