@EricEdmeades @joerogan Very cool.

@AppliedGeneral Nice job! Congrats!

[Applied General Intelligence @AppliedGeneral]

We are at a pivotal moment in the future of AI.

Our approach at Applied General Intelligence (AGI) has always been to validate our claims internally and only then speak.

We no longer believe we have that luxury given the news over the past week.

A few months ago, we hit a major breakthrough in our approach.

For the past 5 years we’ve worked in stealth on a novel approach that goes beyond LLMs.

We call this new approach a Coherence Maintenance System, or CMX.

We’ve named our prototype system “Arx.”

The breakthrough we achieved came by applying our abstraction of the full system to solve hallucinations while using LLMs for certain sub-tasks.

Applying CMX directly at the problem of solving hallucinations in general intelligence systems was phase 1 in our roadmap. Phase 2 is developing the full system without using LLMs for any sub-task.

While costs have been a huge problem with LLMs, it was not the true defect in the approach.

Hallucinations prevent full scale adoption of AI because outputs can’t be trusted

Hallucinations will always plague LLMs because they’re inherent to their architecture

As we were building our Coherence Maintenance System, Arx, our north star was coherence.

An intelligent system with coherence at its core will not guess.

This presented a challenge we solved by doing two things.

First, deconstructing and fully understanding language.

Linguistics is the core of our foundation.

With that we built our language comprehension engine, grounded in our knowledge base.

As we begin to onboard early users, they will be able to see exactly how Arx chunks and parses every query.

Second, Arx learned how to read so it could then read to learn.

This is the same developmental process every human goes through.

It’s why reading is the first thing any child must do before they can learn other subjects in school.

While this sounds simple, the technological challenge here is extreme.

That is why companies have instead resorted to building LLMs, a convenient statistical approximation of language understanding with all its pros and cons: you live by statistics and you die by statistics.

Arx is fundamentally different – a true breakthrough beyond LLMs..

What’s more is that our approach is by its very design computationally efficient.

Our current cost per query is $.0025.

Cheaper than even the DeepSeek models that have recently come out.

Earlier this year we submitted a small abstraction of our model to Tiger Lab at the MMLU Pro.

We told investors and experts before we ever submitted that we would score the highest of any company on that benchmark.

They ran and validated our result where we scored 82.9%.

This was before the major improvements we’ve made in the past weeks.

We were on the top of the leaderboard for a number of weeks but ultimately we were removed because we are not an LLM.

We agree that we are not and we also believe that LLMs are not the path to achieving AGI.

So while we were disappointed that they could not understand this novel approach we’ve taken, this is not new to us.

In August we raised our seed round.

We are sharing our pitch deck we used for the round and you will see that we were already calling for an approach Beyond LLMs.

Many investors struggled to believe that there was another path forward.

But this round was closed in 2 weeks as many investors immediately understood the approach we were taking and why it would lead to the world’s most efficient, coherent, and reliable intelligence system.

At Applied General Intelligence we believe that winning the AI race is a matter of national interest and it’s one that we are positioned to win.

Not because we need hundreds of billions of dollars to do it but because we’ve taken a novel approach that solves the two biggest problems in AI.

Cost and Hallucinations.

We have purposefully kept our research and IP out of the public domain.

Seeing what has happened over the past week has validated our approach.

We know there will be lots of questions and doubts.

That has been the reality for the past 5 years in building this company.

We said that the world needed to go Beyond LLMs and many are acknowledging that reality now.

We will deliver a giant leap forward that surpasses all the LLMs.

First, we will help solve their hallucinations with our abstraction.

Next, we will make our full model available to take the world from LLMs to CMX and beyond.

I can't wait for you to hear this week’s podcast. It's going to change the way you think.

We explored the massive shifts happening as Artificial Intelligence goes mainstream - destroying some jobs and creating incredible new opportunities for others.

Dan dropped a genius new concept that I think will redefine the workforce: the "Clear Collar" worker.

What is a clear collar worker? It's someone who has total clarity - clear skills, clear value, clear mindset - to thrive in this new age of Capability Amplification through Ai.

You don't need fancy credentials. You just need to be a learner, an innovator, someone who can adapt and augment yourself with these new tools.

We get real about the big changes coming and what it means for your wealth, your productivity, your career, your sense of self-worth.

This week's Big Leap Podcast will have you rethinking your relationship with "stuff."

@GayHendricks opened my eyes to some profound insights about how eliminating excess possessions and complications can create more space for your true genius to flourish.

He talked about going through his closet each year and getting rid of anything he doesn't absolutely love wearing. Imagine only surrounding yourself with clothes that give you an "erotic experience" when you put them on!

We also explored the concept of identifying the handful of people who light up when you enter the room - and prioritizing intimacy with them over shallow social obligations.

I know today’s episode will inspire you to start editing out the nonessentials so you can focus on what you truly love. Watch it here: https://t.co/Ttc6PhD2H9 or Listen on iTunes: https://t.co/pTX11DiM98

I sat down with my friends Kurt and Kristen Luidhardt, who have a super unique approach for rapidly growing your business by tapping into what they call "Liberty Spenders" - a lucrative market of 40% of the U.S. population that most businesses completely overlook.

Between them, they've raised over $500 million from over 1 million transactions working on political campaigns. They've helped elect 1 president, 14 governors, and over 100 members of Congress by mastering the psychology of connecting with this hyper-engaged audience.

We talked about their 5-step process for identifying and speaking the "language" of Liberty Spenders, including:
⭐️ How to instantly analyze your existing customer base to see what percentage are potential Liberty Spenders (the numbers will shock you)
⭐️The 3 positioning boxes you can choose from to authentically connect with this market - from full ideological stance to neutrality.
⭐️Crafting a magnetic narrative that taps straight into the passion center of these buyers' minds.
⭐️Proving your messaging before spending a dime through laser-accurate testing and focus groups.
⭐️Rolling out an air-tight multi-channel game plan to put your offers in front of this massive, underserved audience.

Grab your headphones and get comfy because today’s podcast with Dan Sullivan is another must-listen episode!

It was one of the most fascinating conversations I've had in a while - all about the rise of English as the global language and how it's shaped culture, business, and even our individual mindsets.

We talk about how English's simplicity and adaptability allowed it to overtake other languages and how its dominance in entertainment, technology, and entrepreneurship encouraged billions to adopt it for fame, fortune, and a better life.

But here's the real mind-bender: Dan argues that non-native English speakers are often BETTER communicators because they instinctively check for understanding in a way native speakers don't.

I’ve got a super valuable resource to share with you today - one that's going to open your mind and put you on the fast track to unleashing your full creative genius.

As you know, my brilliant co-host Gay Hendricks is the legendary author of “The Big Leap” and other transformational books. Well, he just released a brand new book called “Your Big Leap Year,” and our conversation about it was next-level.

Gay lays out an "owner's manual for your mind" designed to help you expand your creative potential every day. He shares insights like:

⭐️The two "sacred elements" that define true genius (and how to embody them)
⭐️A shockingly simple commitment to transform your whole life
⭐️His life-changing morning ritual (after 52 years of daily practice!)
⭐️How to create the time you need to unleash your unique brilliance
⭐️Visceral techniques to "feel" commitments in your body (not just think them)

This isn't just theory either. Gay draws from his own, personal journey transforming from a broke, overweight smoker in a toxic relationship to international success as a pioneering author and human consciousness guide.

Do yourself a favor and check out this week's Big Leap Podcast here: https://t.co/fOfchJVjCQ and make sure to get yourself a copy of Gay's new book ASAP https://t.co/rQYrH8uc3H
