Field notes from the seismograph.

Foreshock is just getting started finding ways to apply the telemetry and intelligence hooks that come with providing Aldous warm as-a-service for clients. We've got everything from "privacy-respecting Emotional GoPro-like day summarizer" to Social Seismographs on the near-term horizon.

But that means our model is only ever going to grow into our vision of it. How myopic of a vision is that? We can't let that happen. We need people that spot more exact pairings between what we can provide and interesting problems that need solved.

Partners keep us on the edge of a very important intersection: what we choose to pursue, and how that pursuit can help people add value to their lives and businesses.

We want a constant stream of people trying to hammer our research into corners that we never thought it would go, or even existed. And you know what? We're pretty good friends to have!

I'd Also Like to Introduce Foreshock!

I'm pleased to announce that I shared Aldous' launch announcement:

The article below introduces Aldous, a zero-shot semantic telemetry engine built to do exactly that. It operates on Diagonal Emotional Covariance Estimation (DECE), calculating the centroid and dimensional variance of concepts in latent space to output distance and similarity floats in constant time.

There is no string matching and no generative reasoning, just open observability. If you are working on the math or governance side of AI, I encourage you to read the architecture breakdown. My approach isn't exactly new, but it is pretty novel, if I do say so myself because it's #Semantic, boogie woogie, woogie!

Please consider dropping the open-source variance harness into your own CI server to establish your own content baselines, and please subscribe to my new newsletter that tracks the journey of this ongoing, rewarding, and often beguiling research. I won't publish an installment unless there's plenty to say.
