If you have a workflow you run repeatedly, making it deterministic where possible and using AI only when necessary is much cheaper and faster.
You can accomplish this by having an "outer loop" AI agent that's responsible for building and managing automations. The "inner loop" agent runs within the automation.
My fault: last weekend I told my wife during a discussion of climate change "hey, at least we don't have to worry that the rains won't come and the crops will fail."
I'm working on Tidepools, a daily journaling / task management app (local-first, Mac/iOS/web) with a proactive AI coach. Mostly what the coach does is ask you questions. It can also suggest tasks. Right now I'm working on sandboxed plugins that the coach can modify, so the user can request behavior changes.
Anyone who believes AI running on silicon could in principle be conscious has to believe that biological computers are conscious, right? Why aren't those people voicing more concerns?
Zelazny can’t really be beat when it comes to style and wit in SF/fantasy. Pick up Lord of Light or Nine Princes in Amber (or Jack of Shadows, or The Doors of His Face, the Lamps of His Mouth, or …)
I'm playing around with it, and it's very cool! One issue is that fingerprint expansion doesn't always work, e.g. I have a memory "Going to Albania in January for a month-long stay in Tirana" and asking "Do I need a visa for my trip?" didn't turn up anything, using expansion "visa requirements trip destination travel documents..."
What would you think about adding another column that is used for matching that is a superset of the actual memory, basically reusing the fingerprint expansion prompt?
I asked about the Peninsula campaign during the Civil War and it gave me an overview, a map, profiles (with photos) of the main military commanders, a relevant Youtube video ... rough edges but overall love the format.
Rough edges:
- aspect ratios on photos (maybe because I was on mobile, cropping was weird)
- map was very hard to read (again, mobile)
- some formatting problems with tables
- it tried to show an embedded Gmap for one location but must have gotten the location wrong, was just ocean
"Critically, the language one speaks or signs can have downstream effects on ostensibly nonlinguistic cognitive domains, ranging from memory, to social cognition, perception, decision-making, and more."
Can they really distinguish between the impact of language on these domains rather than culture? It could be the language you speak, or it could be that you're surrounded exclusively by other people that operate this way.
