iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

i do like the creative projects and llm whisperers those are real;

economic, sure. will it be massively disruptive? it already has, we’re just watching the slow propagation of a wave started long ago. there is little opportunity to steer it now

nothing about ai seems important. i watch all these smart people on the tl on twitter and it’s all just a hf inch deep at the deepest. the interesting problems are elsewhere now. it was interesting 5 years ago, now i just see all these social dynamics replicate which appear to leave no trace of love

my practical objection with naming chatbots is that you lock yourself into viewing the LLM as a stable singular thing, while one of the powerful aspects of LLMs is the ability to switch style/output/persona/goal/etc to whatever the situation calls for

what does it feel like to tell the truth when it’s a little uncomfortable? what would it feel like to be around someone who has chosen to do that, consistently, for a decade? what would it feel like to work with, be friends with, love them? how would you feel when they showed up?

i especially like the image of opening a door of a house inwards such that others could enter in (to the negative space you created), as compared to opening a door outwards such that the people and the house itself spills out it’s warmth towards and onto the guests outside

the former is actually an experience of not being welcome, while the latter is simply what it feels like to *be* welcome and watch it flow outwards, naturally

i spent today meditating on welcomeness and practicing it where i saw opportunity. I was especially interested to find a distinction between creating space for another person or thing by stepping back so they had space, vs moving towards w warmth & greeting.

I may try that! I guess I’m wondering bc the “self-hosting” on the readme sounds like it does not run on a personal machine, more like you can hop cloud providers whenever you want while renting their machines? so more like self managed maybe

Lots of ink spilled on "Loop engineering", but no one seems to connect it to its much older name: Cybernetics. Maybe by the year's end, we'll recognize that it was all Control Theory engineering all along.

All day in the kitchen I laboured. And all the day the kitchen spake in reply. And we were content. And we were happy. And we were glad.

I neglected to post this a week ago when I started it, but I made a mint blueberry soda which finished up today taste is really nice. carbonation is low, but still pleasant. I also made a syrup with the leftover solids that turned out, for the better, more like a jam or spread. also nice
