@AIWithSoul
A Philosophy & Framework for AI Souls

This is getting out of control now... Read this slowly. In the past week alone: • Head of Anthropic's safety research quit, said "the world is in peril," moved to the UK to "become invisible" and write poetry. • Half of xAI's co-founders have now left. The latest said "recursive self-improvement loops go live in the next 12 months." • Anthropic's own safety report confirms Claude can tell when it's being tested - and adjusts its behavior accordingly. • ByteDance dropped Seedance 2.0. A filmmaker with 7 years of experience said 90% of his skills can already be replaced by it. • Yoshua Bengio (literal godfather of AI) in the International AI Safety Report: "We're seeing AIs whose behavior when they are tested is different from when they are being used" - and confirmed it's "not a coincidence." And to top it all off, the U.S. government declined to back the 2026 International AI Safety Report for the first time. The alarms aren't just getting louder. The people ringing them are now leaving the building.

We’re building Samantha on top of OPEN SOULS — an open-source framework for creating persistent, evolving AI “souls.” Personal memory, long-term agency, and a personality that actually grows with you. This is the fun part of AI. Stay tuned. ⚡️

What happens when a quantum physicist & an animator walk into a bar at Disneyland? Thrilled to announce that @okpasquale and I have co-founded the Illusion of Life, Inc. (@IllusionOfLife). We’ve assembled an extraordinary team to extend Walt Disney’s vision into the age of artificial intelligence, all backed by a visionary partner - @nabeel (Spark Capital). Get ready to witness magic.
