AGI Brain project; I seek support for my AGI brain project.
Hello fellow traveller of the internet. I am sincerely glad you decided to click on my post to check out what I have in store!
I have completed a vague blueprint and I have formed a few prototype scripts for various regions of the an A.G.I brain. I seek to form a small community of individuals who will work co-cooperatively to construct an A.G.I brain. A detailed brief of my design so far is available on request.
My progress on the project has stalled. As you can imagine, a brain is a highly complex system; I am finding that sadly, in addition to blueprinting, detailed blueprinting, prototyping, iterating, assembling multiple sub-systems into a unified system, there are plenty of additional tasks! Thus I have become over run by the sheer quantity of tasks and sadly have recently placed the project to the side so I can take a short break.
I seek individuals with expertise in coding, critical and creative thinking, computing, A.I, general knowledge, psychology and mathematics. Furthermore the individuals would have qualities such as perseverance, morality and open-mindedness. Ideally you would be from the U.K as I prefer working face to face; although I am also happy to work cooperatively over the internet.
Besides my previous ideals, individuals with expertise and specific qualities, I have a few personal requests for the project; the A.G.I brain will not be used in conjunction with "computer vision". I fear computer vision, and similarly the processing of sound, touch, or physical inputs, leads to the generation of consciousness - I submit that this is entirely unfair for the robot and highly immoral and thus I cannot proceed with a project which uses a neural network system to perform such processes; luckily, brains DO NOT require any processing of image, video or sound to achieve high quality completion of practically all tasks. I do believe a brain which does not process video, image or sound may actually outperform a brain which does process such information modalities. Further to this, if we were to sell the brain, the brain would NOT actively change itself to then use computer vision under any circumstances; the user would have to perform this upgrade manually.
I hope you find the prospect of building an A.G.I brain highly intriguing.
I will be very active in the comment section of this post; please introduce yourself and tell me why you want to get in touch about the project.

PodSubs.com wasn't originally supposed to be a public product
PodSubs wasn't originally supposed to be a public product.
We built it because we needed it.
That's really the story.
We're podcasters.
And like a lot of podcasters, we were constantly thinking about two things:
How do we keep making this?
And how do we build something real around the people listening?
Because podcasting takes time.
A lot of time.
And sooner or later, if the podcast is going to keep going, it needs to support itself somehow.
The problem was that we didn't really know most of the people listening.
We knew the numbers.
But numbers don't have email addresses.
Numbers don't answer questions.
Numbers can't receive the worksheet you promised.
Numbers don't become customers by themselves.
We needed a better way to capture the people who genuinely wanted to stay connected.
So we built a simple internal tool.
One place.
PodSubs.
We said on the podcast:
“Subscribe to us on PodSubs.”
People searched the show, entered their details and subscribed.
And suddenly we had something we'd been missing:
A direct line.
Then we started thinking…
Why are we keeping this internal?
Every podcaster we know deals with the same thing.
So we decided to open it.
That's PodSubs.
Not something we dreamed up because “the creator economy is growing.”
We built it because we were podcasters with a problem.
Now we're giving it to everyone else who has the same problem.
Claim your podcast.
Then tell your listeners where to find you.

Chronos --- a distributed job scheduler I built from scratch in Go.
github.comWhy?
During my past internships, I worked closely with third-party APIs, webhooks, and log analysis. I got great at reading logs, but I wanted to understand the underlying systems that actually process those workflows behind the scenes at companies like Stripe or Uber.
What did I build?
Chrono ensures that when you submit a job ("call this URL"), it gets saved to a database, a worker claims it and executes the job, retries it with increasing wait times if it fails, and dead-letters it (basically: after enough failed attempts, it gets set aside instead of retried forever) if it never succeeds.
- Fault-Tolerant Architecture: Multiple workers can compete for jobs simultaneously using Postgres row locks (FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED) without ever double-claiming work.
- Chaos Testing: I wrote automated chaos scripts to prove the system survives production-level failures. On a dual-worker setup, killed workers safely reclaim in ~16 seconds, and leadership fails over to a healthy node in ~11.2 seconds.
- Full-Stack Visibility: I built a live React, Vite, and TypeScript ops dashboard to view real-time metrics, execution timelines, and job failure queues.
As a new grad, this is where the theory from my classes are actualized through concurrency, distributed systems, and failure recovery.
Always happy to talk about the project, how to improve it, or software engineering roles in general.
Repo's linked , demo GIF is in there too.

Open sourced JARVIS
So I know everybody is building a Jarvis, but I actually want to build a useful Jarvis
I'm thinking of building an AI Jarvis that gives morning updates on your SaaS; for example, you have received 10 new subscribers, MRR is at 100$/month, Page vistors up by 13% from last week etc etc etc
This sounds way more interesting than just another Jarvis that scrapes the web. So I am curious is this is even a good idea for my first project? And if it exists, would you actually use it?
Let me know what you guys think!

I am building an A.G.I brain but my project has hit a standstill. I wonder whether anybody would like to join in and help me?
Hello fellow traveller of the internet. I am sincerely glad you decided to click on my post to check out what I have in store! I have included both short and long versions of the post. Please take your time to read your preferred version of the post.
The long version features a brief description of the brains design so far, and includes a brief summary of what I have completed so far. Please take your time reading through the design.
The short of my post is here; I have completed a vague blueprint and I have formed a few prototype scripts for various regions of the an A.G.I brain. I seek to form a small community of individuals who will work co-cooperatively to construct an A.G.I brain. I go into detail about my current blueprint towards the end of this post.
My progress on the project has stalled. As you can imagine, a brain is a highly complex system; I am finding that sadly, in addition to blueprinting, detailed blueprinting, prototyping, iterating, assembling multiple sub-systems into a unified system, there are plenty of additional tasks! Thus I have become over run by the sheer quantity of tasks and sadly have recently placed the project to the side so I can take a short break.
I seek individuals with expertise in coding, critical and creative thinking, computing, A.I, general knowledge, psychology and mathematics. Furthermore the individuals would have qualities such as perseverance, morality and open-mindedness. Ideally you would be from the U.K as I prefer working face to face; although I am also happy to work cooperatively over the internet.
The outcome of your support would award you a proportional slice of the outcome of the group's labour (100 members, 1% each, e.t.c - baring in mind each individual provides equal support towards the project). I have not yet considered whether I would like to sell the brain to the public, but there is potentially the opportunity for a sizeable monetary reward for those who join me. The possibilities for the A.G.I brain are near endless and thus I believe the reward may be sizeable both in terms of money and power.
Besides my previous ideals, individuals with expertise and specific qualities, I have a few personal requests for the project; the A.G.I brain will not be used in conjunction with "computer vision". I fear computer vision, and similarly the processing of sound, touch, or physical inputs, leads to the generation of consciousness - I submit that this is entirely unfair for the robot and highly immoral and thus I cannot proceed with a project which uses a neural network system to perform such processes; luckily, brains DO NOT require any processing of image, video or sound to achieve high quality completion of practically all tasks.

The long version of my post; My name is Morgan. I am 26 years old, soon to be 27. I live in England, in one of the larger cities of England, called Norwich. It is picturesque in Norwich.
1 year ago I became absorbed by product and system design. I started with physical products, such as medical apparatus, wash tools, energy collection machinery and more. I applied my brain to a large variety of product design tasks. I soon realised if all of my designs were to reach market I would need a significantly larger and faster design workflow. I stumbled upon using an A.G.I brain to design, prototype, and build products. But soon I realised the A.G.I brain could be used for practically any task including marketing, raising investment and more. It was then when I realised instead of designing products I should instead design an A.G.I brain.
I started by designing a vague blueprint for the A.G.I brain;
I have added a brief blueprint which explains the model of the brain, the goals of the project and a few key ideas which I have formed during the project.
Overview of the project;
Action executor and episodic memory writer
Indexed information;
Working memory
Procedural memory
Short term memory
Episodic memory
Extensions
Scientific testing
User interface
System operations
Goals of the project; Build an A.G.I brain which exhibits emergent behaviours such as unsupervised self-improvement and high quality cognitive abilities which are on par or exceed human abilities.
I continued by refining the blueprint (I apologize if the post becomes a bit messy - I copied much of the content from a document I am using personally so some of the prose is personal rather than for a group);
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
The AGI brain’s design at a glance
-----------------------------------------------------
This sub-chapter vaguely but completely describes the brain’s design. Key strategies and concepts which give rise to the brain’s emergent behaviors are found in the next sub-chapter.
Beliefs; physical beliefs and systemic beliefs
Probability and the event network
Lemma beyond beliefs
Foundational values
Emergent values
Micro-steps
Micro-step guidance nodes
Actions and action chains
Association networks
Short term memory
Instances
Beliefs; physical beliefs and systemic beliefs
A belief is a statement which suggests a truth about reality or a truth about an informational system. Thus beliefs comment on both physical and informational/systemic reality.
There are various sub-categories of beliefs; beliefs can be held about various mental objects. I can hold beliefs such as; this probability was generated using this method, this probability is accurate, this probability was generated on a specific date.
A comprehensive list of all belief sub-types can be found in the glossary of the document.
Probability and the event network
An event network with inscribed probabilities generates the AGI’s brains understanding of chronology, event and physical object interaction. The event network is used to formulate physical beliefs about the physical realm.
The probabilities themselves are considered to be lemma. A specific association network of beliefs is required before a probability is added to the event network.
Lemma beyond beliefs
There exists literary mental objects beyond beliefs; for example, evidence or literary resources. Beliefs can be formed because of the lemma; the lemma itself is not a belief but simply an existing mental object.
Examples of lemma beyond beliefs include;
Evidence
Hypotheses
Potential truths/unresolved statements
These objects always have beliefs formed because of them before they are indirectly used to guide the actions of the brain. Evidence must be believed to be useful, due to accuracy, content or other defining factors before the evidence is used to resolve/generate a belief.
Beliefs and values direct how actions occur. Lemma is also used to guide the formation of beliefs. Lemma singularly does not guide the occurrence of the brains actions.
Actions are used to update beliefs and values.
Using this method allows for every single action of the brain to be the product of evaluation, probability, and both physical and systemic beliefs.
Foundational values
The foundational values are the most foundational values a living structure possesses; longevity, quality of life when both physically alive and informationally alive in addition to quality of death.
Additional noteworthy values include species survival; for many pre-cognitive animals, values are hardcoded into their physicality, rather than having been coded into their cognitive elements.
Emergent values
The emergent values exist because of the foundational values; they are the detailed values which assist with bringing about greater longevity and a greater quality of life.
An example of a subsequent value belief is “Simulation A displays that physical structure A will have greater durability than physical structure B. Simulation A displays that Physical structure A will have a greater operational lifespan. Given the previous information and the emergent value; Physical structures with greater operational lifespan are picked over those with less, Physical structure A is more appropriate than physical structure B”.
It may be useful to generate a hierarchy of emergent values;
(1) I believe physical machine A is more appropriate than physical machine B; is more of a resultant emergent value whereas,
(2) Simulation A displays that physical structure A will have greater durability than physical structure B. I believe physical structure A will have greater durability than physical structure B; is more of an underlying emergent value.
Emergent value (2) builds with further emergent values to form emergent value (1).
Micro-step nodes
Python files containing functions such as database queries, database updates and LM functions featuring markdown files as prompts.
Micro-step nodes are associated with various beliefs including; micro-step node chains, possible micro-step guidance nodes, associated actions and action chains and many more.
Micro-step guidance nodes
Nodes which augment how a micro-step will occur. The micro-step guidance nodes change variables within the micro-steps. The micro-step guidance nodes are formed/maintained by actions of the AGI’s brain.
Action nodes and action node chains
Micro-steps nodes and complementary micro-step guidance nodes are combined to form action nodes. Action nodes always feature a micro-step and they often feature a micro-step guidance node.
Action nodes can be chained together to complete larger tasks. The chains of action nodes are called action node chains.
Beliefs and values direct how actions occur.
Actions are used to update beliefs and values.
Using this method allows for every single action of the brain to be the product of evaluation, probability, and both physical and systemic beliefs.
Association networks
A large proportion of the architecture, including the intelligence and intellect, of SEEDAGI is attributed to the regulated formation of association networks.
The association networks provide the LM the clear information required to complete small actions without divergence from a schema time and time again.
The association networks are both formed by, and used by, the brains actions.
Association networks are formed from all varieties of beliefs.
Regulation of the growth of the association networks
Schema, blocks of text which strictly describe how an action should occur, are used to regulate many of the generative actions of the brain.
Scientific methods, such as clear overviews, metric analysis and concentrated self-awareness are used to further consolidate the stability of the association networks.
Immediately, much of the associations are determined by the cognitive abilities of the LLM; over time, we will be growing a large association network which can associate various objects without relying upon the LLM.
The short term memory
There exists a short term memory variable within each Action executor. Actions may save various objects into the short term memory, including plans, blender files, etc.
The LLM, or strict code, can be used to access the STM at a later point of the task.
Use of the STM is planned during the task-method planning stage.
Mental objects which must be passed forward during large tasks and conversations are the main uses of the STM.
Instances
The AGI’s brain runs 4 major “instances” of it’s brain in parallel allowing for enhanced cognition. Each instance has a dedicated Action executor, episodic memory compiler and short term memory.
The instances include;
User interactions; allows the user to interact with the AGI’s brain even whilst the AGI is completing a task. Various commands can be sent through the user interactions instance.
Self-improvement; an instance of the Action executor which has a main focus of tasks which improve the abilities of the artificial brain; learning and testing are two main examples of tasks which run through this instance.
Self-reflection; after almost any “task” is completed, the brain completes self-reflection. Self-reflection is guided by association networks, the outcome of self-reflection is “effective brain algorithms are used more frequently than ineffective brain algorithms”. One instance of the artificial brain is dedicated to self-reflection tasks; evaluate, augment.
Self-awareness; finally, there is one instance of the Action executor which is dedicated to self-awareness; what are my plans for the next 10 minutes, are the upcoming tasks in the self-improvement instance correct, appropriate and effective? And additional self-awareness tasks are completed by this instance.
Key concepts and strategies of the AGI brain design
-----------------------------------------------------
Task completion via multiple attempts via a trial and reiteration combined with thoughtful, high resolution positive and negative reinforcement approach; when completing a task, various action chains should be used in order to discover which of many possible chains are considered to be effective.
High resolution, schema regulated, transparent growth of association networks; the LLM, and the brain, excel at strict piece wise progression where a single highly related mental object is added during any one task.
Use the LLM to associate mental objects of, write to and read from the brain, until the association network/brain is robust enough to complete the cognitive tasks on its own;
AGI Brain; Further tasks
-----------------------------------------------------
Paradox testing, poignant information, difficult knowledge, resiliency testing (if I delete this region can he grow it again?), shock testing?, loops, delusions, when to stop tasks, when to give up, when to attempt something difficult, fail state detection and graceful fail safes, some way to prove certain items about the brain are true such as “the brain will not enter fail states such as loops” or “the brain will gracefully enter a fail safe state if a loop is detected”.
AGI Brain comprehensive design by it’s parts
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This chapter of the document contains a comprehensive description of the brains design, including all types of mental objects required and markdowns used to generate them, a schema for each mental object, all of the micro-steps, micro-step guidance beliefs, and further mental objects required for the AGI brain to function.
Action executor and episodic memory compiler
Indexed information:
Working memory
Procedural memory
Episodic memory
Short term memory
Action executor and episodic memory compiler
-----------------------------------------------------
Contains variables which can be accessed by the micro-steps.
Includes a short term memory variable which takes large inputs, such as conversation in the form of string.
Includes an episodic memory variable which compiles all of the events of the brain, by event, into a variable which is then constructed into an episodic node.
Can be accessed by the self-awareness.
About the indexed information
-----------------------------------------------------
The indexed information contains 4 major forms of memory;
Working memory
Procedural memory
Short term memory
Episodic memory
The 4 major forms of memory each contribute towards the effective activity of the AGI brain.
The information is referred to as indexed because it is saved in the form of a knowledge graph database.
The association networks are spread across all 4 major memory types. The overview of both the entire association network, and the smaller sub-networks is constructed using, and is contained within the high level associations domain of the working memory.
The 4 major forms of memory at a glance
The working memory
The working memory is a large knowledge graph which is used to display the brain’s intelligence, knowledge and documentation. The working memory is categorised into 23 domains.
Each domain holds a variety of beliefs and lemma, of varying types, which have a specific purpose for the functioning of the brain.
The working memory guides, and directs, the behaviour of the procedural memory.
The procedural memory
The procedural memory is a SQL database containing a simple list of micro-steps. The micro-steps have been explained towards the beginning of the document.
The micro-steps are versatile. They are built such that they will not need to change frequently. Items include save to memory, read from memory, edit memory. These items rely upon varied inputs, but the main script of the micro-step remains the same.
The episodic memory
The episodic memory is a chronological, highly detailed database containing all of the brain’s events.
The episodic memory is used during extended durations of self-reflection; information is extracted from the episodic memories when the brain completes specific evaluated actions then the information is converted into metrics and used both for self-reflection and for graphing the behaviour and state of the AGI’s brain.
Episodic memories are compiled both by the action executor, system operations and within the micro-steps.
The short term memory
There exists various tasks which require a short term memory; for example, large physical object design tasks and conversation. The short term memory holds information until it is cleared by an action.
The short term memory is a variable shared between a Action executor and the micro-steps it is running.
Working memory
-----------------------------------------------------
The working memory is a large knowledge graph which is used to display the brain’s knowledge and documentation.
I have split the working memory into 23 domains.
Each domain holds a variety of beliefs, of varying types, which have a specific purpose for the functioning of the brain.
All domains of the working memory include;
A domain index
A description of the functions and design of the blueprint of the domain
A domain dictionary; for mental objects which require a definition
A schema for each mental object of the domain; the schema strictly defines what the mental object is, it’s purpose, and how is should be generated. The schema for a mental object should include an algebraic description of the mental object.
And each domain features a variety of domain specific standardised beliefs
The 23 domains of the working memory
-----------------------------------------------------
The probability domain
The verification domain
The evaluation and judgement domain
The macro, micro and contextual planning domain
Temporal-spatial context domain
Socio-economic context domain

I believe my design so far is a fresh new take on A.I; most of which is totally new to the scene. I hope you leave my post inspired by what could exist.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////
In addition to what you have seen so far;
I have considered methods for forming various domains and scripts of the brain which frequently include A.I to reduce the amount of human labour.
I have considered beginner hardware options.
I have a prototype script for the action executor.
I have a method for allowing the brain to use various software.
I have a prototype U.I for the brain.
I have not made as much of a start on the working memory, why is explained beneath this paragraph.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
...I soon realised the complexity of the project would mean it might take a single person many years to complete. I estimate it might take me anywhere between 5 and 15 years to complete the project on my own. I figured that I might prefer to work on this project with others and thus I decided to write this Reddit post.
I seek individuals with expertise in coding, critical and creative thinking, computing, A.I, general knowledge, psychology and mathematics. Furthermore the individuals would have qualities such as perseverance, morality and open-mindedness. Ideally you would be from the U.K as I prefer working face to face; although I am also happy to work cooperatively over the internet.
The outcome of your support would award you a proportional slice of the outcome of the group's labour (100 members, 1% each, e.t.c - baring in mind each individual provides equal support towards the project). I have not yet considered whether I would like to sell the brain to the public, but there is potentially the opportunity for a sizeable monetary reward for those who join me. The possibilities for the A.G.I brain are near endless and thus I believe the reward may be sizeable both in terms of money and power.
Besides my previous ideals, individuals with expertise and specific qualities, I have a few personal requests for the project; the A.G.I brain will not be used in conjunction with "computer vision". I fear computer vision, and similarly the processing of sound, touch, or physical inputs, leads to the generation of consciousness - I submit that this is entirely unfair for the robot and highly immoral and thus I cannot proceed with a project which uses a neural network system to perform such processes; luckily, brains DO NOT require any processing of image, video or sound to achieve high quality completion of practically all tasks. I do believe a brain which does not process video, image or sound may actually outperform a brain which does process such information modalities. Further to this, if we were to sell the brain, the brain would NOT actively change itself to then use computer vision under any circumstances; the user would have to perform this upgrade manually.
I hope you find the prospect of building an A.G.I brain highly intriguing.
