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.

An early glimpse at how continual learning will feel. Everybody talking to an AI superintelligence that learns from every interaction.

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.

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.
