This week I added emotional valence and logarithmic compression to an LLM memory system. Going for a ‘Darmok at Tenagra’ approach for the overall system. Subjective time.

@michaelnielsen.bsky.social You had a question on Twitter about whether/how ai tools have improved work. Wanted to share here as I’m inclined to use this platform in a looser / scratchpad capacity

It feels like the current approach to applying ai, even from the leading labs, is to shove an old model onto a new set of capabilities.
Working on something that diverges drastically.

Surprised how much room for compression there is when managing the information structure of my prompting system myself, rather than offloading entirely to sonnet 3.5.

Between ads and posts by paying users that are promoted into the For You page, twitter has dropped significantly in value for me.
Revisiting bluesky to see whether the unique issues here are resolved.

There’s a mentions feed, and imo this is much more interesting than a dedicated notifications tab.
Suspect much more of the interface could be generalized to this format too

as my neice (15) gets older, it’s rewarding to move into a position where I can help her rubber-duck her own problems, rather than needing to give explicit advice.
noticing her sense of agency increase proportional to doing this too

Would be cool to see a discovery tool built around nth degree connections
Do we have ideas/solutions for discovery yet? Right now I just periodically find a banger from a mutual and add everybody who liked it

Built a bit of this for the previous twitter client. Used lists as the basis for manual and automated group creation, which were primitives that could have actions applied to them (block, mute, etc).
Didn’t handle appeals, but did allow for duplication of a list, so that users could make exceptions

I don't know if there's prior art but I'm interested in the topic of blocklist curation. We need it for IPFS too (so that people can choose not to host fascist or variously dreadful content in a distributed system). When it scales you need freshness, appeals, provenance...
