17 | Building AI research at @theaurisus | Project Instinct — studying how intelligence emerges in nature

1/
I’m building something called Project Instinct under @theaurisus.

It’s a research direction, not a product.

[Edem Evans @hedevans]

@Niklas_Sikorra Alright. Happy to chat if you think it's a fit.

[Edem Evans @hedevans]

@AcadpilotAI @X @theaurisus I really appreciate it 🤝 I'm glad the idea resonates.

I dropped a follow as well. Looking forward to connecting and learning from each other as we build.

[Edem Evans @hedevans]

@debojeetbuilds @X @theaurisus Thanks man. Still early, but excited to see where the research leads.

[Edem Evans @hedevans]

@alibhairakdar Alright, connected.

[Edem Evans @hedevans]

@maharshii I'm building AI research called Project Instinct under my startup, Aurisus. Exploring how intelligence emerges in nature and whether we can design AI systems that don’t rely on massive data.

[Edem Evans @hedevans]

@mark_k Probably systems that learn continuously from interaction instead of being pre-trained then deployed as fixed agents.

[Edem Evans @hedevans]

@samthekorean Building AI research at @theaurisus through Project Instinct, studying how intelligence emerges in nature and how we can translate that into new learning systems.

@bas_fijneman Building AI research at @theaurisus called Project Instinct. Exploring how intelligence emerges in nature and whether we can design learning systems that don’t rely on massive data.

[Edem Evans @hedevans]

@DanielSmidstrup Yeah, that’s how it feels. Still very open field.

[Edem Evans @hedevans]

@calebephrem Appreciate the idea 👊

I’m currently just focusing on interaction-based learning and seeing how far that goes first. Will keep that in mind though.

[Edem Evans @hedevans]

Just built a very rough prototype of what I found in Phase 1 of Project Instinct. An AI that learns through interactions and came with the very least data I could provide.

It remembers everything you teach it.

What should I teach it next?

I’m sharing this publicly as I build and refine the ideas.

Open to conversations with builders, researchers, and anyone thinking differently about AI.

I built an early prototype called PI Baby to test parts of this idea.

Still very early research. Not a product.
