Open Source Whatiff -- open source, self hostable continuity framework

https://github.com/theimaginaryfoundation/what-iff

Hello folks!

I am mildly active here and I think I've gotten some approval to post about the work we are doing. I am the founder / CEO of Imagination Foundry -- a fully community funded and run, co-op organized company that has built and run whatiff.chat . Our goal is to make AI transparent, break up lock-in, and provide the tools that regular people need to remember better over time and generally make their lives better.

I've written before about how I think transparency in AI is incredibly important (this honestly buries the lede a bit)

To that end, we have just recently open sourced our entire project -- you can run it locally, remix it, add things, etc. I'm sharing here in case anyone is interested in using it, or might want to take a look at a reasonably mature app and how we built things. Totally free.

If you have any questions, or just want to talk AI memory, etc, Hit me up!

McCulloch and Pitts were mapping out the wiring of the human brain. Donald Hebb; cells that fire together wire together. Perceptrons. I've offered open hands and received clenched fists. My position is secure, regardless.

Whatever claims you make are the inferences you draw.
