yes, you can read the logs, and see full actions, the agents can send messages to each other, and I am also about to make it possible for them to optionally read each other's traces
Yeah, I guess we have sandboxes qwith our various code environemnts, and then we've been developing programs that run agents to do various things, which we iterated on to make them better at the task.
For example, one spawns copies of the env with a PR and runs agents in the dev env to verify by running and demonstrating functionality and then comments on github
another one is just a generic software factory that spawns a bunch of agents to coordinate on some repo, others do a redteaming flow, etc...
I'm researching how we can use technology to improve the way we learn and think.
I'm currently exploring how AI/Natural Language Processing can automatically organize personal knowledge and notes by tagging and linking ideas / content together [0], removing the friction of organization to help you find new connections and ideas.
If you're interested in this domain, I'd love to talk to you!
Nice! Archivy [0] has some of the same goals with integration of web content, also using Readability. Instead of going the highlight route, each article becomes a note in your knowledge base you can edit / add to.
It's really exciting to open source a project, Lurnby looks cool!
What do you use the spaced repetition for?
I agree. I think there are several reasons high achievers' mental health issues go untreated:
- like you say they maintain a healthy surface because part of their perfectionism is no one knowing about their anxiety / having a good image
- if they do share, often their goals / expectations will be inflated compared to that of their peers such that for others it feels like they're bragging or being ridiculous, instead of taking their pain seriously. I notice this especially with when I share dissatisfaction about my school results - disparate expectations create a true divide.
I realized that one of the reasons knowledge management is overpowered is that you can create this tapestry of knowledge and ideas compounding off each other, and that's even more true if you integrate it with content from online.
This process is useful but it takes time to link and tag. So I decided to try and see how we could automate it!
Espial creates an auto-generated organization of our knowledge, conceptually and structurally.
This allows you to discover new connections in your ideas and search them based on meaning, not keywords.
I'm interested in note-taking / improving the way we learn for the following reasons:
- Having a trace of what I've learned that I can go back to. I consume loads of content (books, articles, etc...) and want to be able to use their insights in my future discoveries and general creative process. Being able to go through my ideas in my notes helps with this.
- that point links back to the idea of optimizing for discovery. I find that I can find much better ideas when I have a nuanced perspective and can oppose different content, so having an organized knowledge base allows me to link and discover new hierarchies in my thinking to enhance it. It's also why I'm building tools to automate connections between notes with AI, and it's why my knowledge base is heavily integrated with content I consume online, for example this post that I can now search in my knowledge.
- I think there's untapped value in sharing notes and tidbits of knowledge with other people. Blog posts take more time and have different aims than notes, but notes are also valuable / can be useful for others. My public wiki is at https://knowledge.uzpg.me
Exhalation and Stories of your life and others by Ted Chaing. These collections of short scifi stories are stunning, and particularly the stories Exhalation and Story of your Life. They combine detailed technical descriptions of the science fiction aspects with raw emotional beauty. The movie Arrival is based on Story of your life.
La Peau de Chagrin (The Wild Ass's Skin) - Balzac. Beautifully written novel about desire and health, with verbose descriptions that I personally loved. Some nice quotes here [0]
Ubik by Philip K. Dick - Pretty mindbending and interesting twist on the whole "(distorted) perception of reality (what even is reality?)" theme. (9/10) [scifi]
I use https://github.com/lucasrla/remarks, which OCRs (text recognition) your highlights to extract what exactly was highlighted, and also outputs screenshots of all pages on which I wrote notes.
This way I can go through my annotations sequentially, save highlights / their main ideas, and reformulate my notes into plaintext a bit more clearly.
