Last week, or maybe it was the week before, I mentioend that I was on a podcast.
And because it’s helpful to me and the community I’m building to promote having been on a podcast, I did a little post on that. Partially as a bookmark for my own recollection.
And then I also mentioned that I had dispatched a kind of intelligence agent/investigator to assess, in curious terms, how the podcast went.
I called it Leon Milton on Github, or ‘Larry’ for short.
Leon ‘Larry’ Milton.
I made this because I had been doing some experiments with various Large Larry Models to better understand and make sense of what the heck is going on in the AI space.
I’ve been working on Larry for quite some time, hand-coding some features, wondering what capabilities were at the edge of the model and its interfaces. Trying various things that might occur to me on any given afternoon.
What I was angling towards is a way to freeze dry some of the discussions we have within the Near Future Laboratory in such things as General Seminar or particularly Super Seminar and refer back to them by ‘making inquiries’ to the model.
Felt a bit like the hypothetical (or maybe it’s happening, it’s hard to keep up) where you have the collective interconnected interlinked representation of someone’s entire ouevre of conversations, statements, correspondences, photos, videos, papers, essays, books and articles read, movies watched, meals eaten, etc., and then you can energize it and ask it questions or have conversations.

By that, I mean a kind of question like this: ‘How’d it go? Like..what were the points made by myself and the other guests? How do you think I did in terms of communicating to a business person?
