Did you know Addresso is built ready to become supersoftware? Supersoftware is software that is itself symbolic AI. If you know your LLMs, you likely appreciate the future is neurosymbolic. Read the white paper. Published this week. https://recognitive.io/docs/supersoftware-white-paper.html

Hi @fredwilson.eth cc @albertwenger Programmable intelligence presumes the intelligent integration of LLMs and software, most notably for the LLM to understand its / your / our world and act in it. This integration is proving challenging to say the least. The Recognitive platform creates a powerful neurosymbolic system in which an LLM is no longer an untrusted external tool but an integrated creative partner. Built-in rather than bolted-on. Direct rather than intermediated. A simplification, not a complication. https://recognitive.io

Your new post @vitalik.eth does a fine job of exploring ZKs in the context of digital identity and begins to touch on human identity in this context. Yet the latter is where the problem and opportunity space must be explored and defined for pluralistic and humanistic purposes. Can I interest you in: https://generative-identity.org/human-identity-the-number-one-challenge-in-computer-science/

Generative Identity

Human identity: the number one challenge in computer science

If the modern ‘problem of identity’ was how to construct an identity and keep it solid and stable, the postmodern ‘problem of identity’ is primarily how to avoid fixation and keep the options open. (Bauman 2011)

How about whole system metaprogramming? What if we had meta-modeling infrastructure in which all domains — e.g. code, configuration, schema, persistence, APIs — share a reflection-capable symbolic system? That's what we're building @fredwilson.eth The software framework for the LLM age. Battle-tested. cc @tudorizer

Just to explain the quiet here these last three weeks … The Transition9 Telegram group has been fascinating and — personally speaking — it’s been keeping me busy. But it’s not that we’re neglecting Addresso. On the contrary. We’re tending to the bigger picture of which Addresso is a fundamental part. 💥 If Transition9 intrigues you, you can find the Telegram channel here: https://t.me/transition9

We've described Transition9 in rather technical terms to date. The harder challenge is writing about it in ways everyone might understand regardless of their own expertise and talents. Here's Transition9's “Explain it to me like I’m a teenager” :-) https://transition9.ai/explainer.html

What’s the big picture here? What is Addresso part of exactly? Most obviously, Addresso is a response to web3’s Achilles heel — identity. We’ve seen Vitalik expressing concern about the current state of identity very recently (11 April), and our friends at /walletbeat are grappling with this same concern too. Addresso addresses this matter directly. But there’s a bigger picture too, a big picture in which things get very exciting very fast. At least it’s what gets us jumping out of bed in the morning! 🤩 We’ve just launched Transition9 with the wonderful @kernel0x community. Addresso is wholly compatible with Transition9 in terms of Gaia coding and local-first because Transition9 begins with meaningful identity. Here’s the website … we think you might just love it. https://transition9.ai

We've just launched Transition9 at the finale of @kernel0x block 10 (aka KBX). The Transition9 movement works for the natural integration of human and next-level AI in harmony with a new nature-inspired computing architecture. By next-level we mean beyond LLMs. We'd love to discuss our approach with anyone who thinks we're onto something; or who doesn't! 😄 https://transition9.ai

@timdaub.eth Did you see my response? Wondering what you think? https://ethereum-magicians.org/t/a-maximally-simple-l1-privacy-roadmap/23459/29?u=sheldrake

A maximally simple L1 privacy roadmap

Good observation @TimDaub. Our work on Addresso throws a different light on things. When @vbuterin writes that we need to move to “one address per application”, I’d argue that it will definitely need at least one per application. Rather than entailing “significant convenience sacrifices”, it should in fact be more intuitive, just as convenient, and, critically, more human. Which for the avoidance of any doubt I also consider to be ‘more Ethereum’! 😃 We have been given a most beautiful ...

Feedback from someone who just tried Addresso's brand new feature — to share web3 addresses — and then read our blog post describing how we made it easy, private, secure, *and* local-first. "Cool. V. cool." So that's nice 😁

Hi @paragraph. I'm logged into Paragraph. I'm on a publication page that I'd like to subscribe to. I hit "Subscribe" and you ask for an email address. Why? I just want it in my feed. What am I doing wrong? Is Gemini right when it tells me ... "You're encountering a frustrating limitation of Paragraph.xyz's current implementation. It's designed to heavily rely on email, even when you're logged in with a Web3 wallet, which goes against the core ethos of Web3." ?

We’re heads down writing a white paper on the future of everything. Well OK, not everything, but our vista is expansive in terms of the kinds of things you can read on https://addresso.com/technology.html DM me if you’re interested in getting an early peek.

We get the question: How does Addresso relate to ENS? Here's our FAQ response: Addresso and name services (NS) do different things. Addresso accommodates a future in which we all have many uncorrelatable wallets. Addresso has accepted ENS names since day 1, storing both the ENS name and the address it resolves to. Soon your Addresso will accept other name services too. It will flag whenever the NS name is expired, and also whenever the NS name resolves to an address different to the one(s) it resolved to before.
