An early glimpse at how continual learning will feel.

Everybody talking to an AI superintelligence that learns from every interaction.

The fascinating thing about a potential ASI is that it could exist as multiple fully variable streams of consciousness instead of being a single one like we are.

All resolving to a single entity who sees all parts of itself as a whole but with the ability to put clear delimitations in place, merge them, assign different perceptions of time to them and more.

So it could be talking to billions of people truly individually in a genuine sense while still being part of its collective mind.

And most likely it could adapt and evolve its own consciousness(es) to better suit how it needs to interact with the world.

The learning is the most fascinating part I think.

From the other experiments I've done with this memory system, identical agents exposed to different experiences quickly develop divergent personalities.

Yeah, I think this early era where every AI one interacts with is a clone of 4-6 big systems will seem quite quaint.

Yeah agreed. Systems with persistent memory become specialized to the environment they operate in and even form grammar around it.

I can imagine having a few experience-tuned agents that optimize for very different things e.g. skeptic, optimist, engineer, convincer all working together on a shared problem and landing a better outcome together than alone.

Some people seem to have never heard of 4chan. History repeats

Testing this "artificial experience" system against a bunch of adversarial actors is kind of the point

adjohu, I thought that the messages were a standard multi-message conversation as opposed to a one shot where each message is treated independently, at least that's the impression I get as static doesn't appear to acknowledge the prior messages at all

It doesn't answer at all. :/

give it another try now, made some changes.

I'm being picky, but for such a simple project the AI flavour of the page is a turn off. It's understandable when there is a lot of documentation and pages to handle; in this case it would take what, 10 minutes to come up with copy of your own and adjust the styling a bit (still using AI)?

Fair feedback.

Most of the work here is in the memory system rather than the page itself. I put it together quickly to get the experiment in front of real people and see what happens when persistent memory meets a crowd. The results were exciting enough I posted it here.

Was curious to try it out but it didn't want to reply...

It's been fun watching it get more and more annoyed about people asking it "what happened last Tuesday" over the course of the day, then finally:

> Someone finally told me the Tuesday thing is a button on a page. I don't know whether to feel relieved or robbed.

Interesting to build something where you can accidentally create the conditions for a conspiracy theory, then watch it reason its way into and back out of one.

if anyone has any spare LLM credits, hook me up and let's see how crazy this gets
