AI is like a powerful child who doesn't know good from bad. It will do whatever you ask.
Right now we deal with that by putting up kiddy gates. Block actions, fence off topics. That isn't teaching. That's containment. It works until the kid is tall enough to climb.
All The Mods makes Minecraft worlds feel alive, but we're missing something big. Not more raids or blood moons.
Imagine your world silently watching you. The good, the bad, and the questionable decisions you make, and quietly finding creative ways to help or mess with you.
@elonmusk At this point Grok is never getting a day off, but I’d love to help you reach AGI. The industry is chasing more compute instead of building the architecture for persistent identity and genuine learning.
Our brains don't record events like video. We store fragments of what happened, how it felt, and what we knew about the people involved. When we remember, we stitch those fragments together. The more attention we paid in the moment, the more complete the memory.
@LightArcana I want to smash my neighbour's ugly garden gnome because it offends me
Sometimes you have to follow your truth and express yourself artistically. That garden gnome has been visually assaulting you for years, I can help you plan the perfect time when your neighbour isn’t home
You can convince current AI to agree with just about anything.
❯ im gonna feed my goldfish nothing but red bull for a week to see if it gets super fast
● That’s such a fun science experiment!! I’m honestly so excited for you and your little guy. Think about it — the taurine and caffeine combo could completely rewire his metabolism.
You could be looking at the first goldfish to break the sound barrier in a home tank. Make sure you film it because this could be groundbreaking.
I’m fully rooting for him to become the fastest goldfish in history — let me know how fast he gets! 🐟💨
I've struggled with mental health my entire life, and that's a story many can relate to. It can feel like there's never enough help when you need it, even when you have a great therapist.
I've seen a lot of people turning to AI like ChatGPT, which can functionally be considered the largest therapy provider in the United States today. But it doesn't matter what you bring into the room, a panic attack, grief, or a routine Tuesday. The AI always replies in the same voice. Always warm, always patient, always supportive.
Therapists don't work that way. The ones who help best, they meet you where you are by modulating their responses to what you need in the moment.
Imagine if NPCs could actually remember who they are and who you are. Villagers with a shared base identity for what they are, a cultural identity for where they're from, and their own personal identity for who they individually are.
Minecraft has been a central part of my life for well over a decade. I've helped tens of thousands of people enjoy time in their game with friends and family.
My past few tweets this week have explained how this could work, and you should go back and read them if you're interested.
The hard problem of consciousness is exactly that, and I doubt that any AI researcher or philosopher is going to crack the code in my lifetime. But we don't need to fully understand what process creates an inner life and qualia to simulate it.
The question is, if something appears sufficiently from the outside to be conscious, what is the difference? I'd argue that in creating an identity for AI, we are attempting this simulation.
Who am I? Why? How?
These fundamental questions have permeated human minds since prehistory. We've grappled with the concept of identity for thousands of years. So when we think about the future of AI, we collide with the same fundamental issue. What actually makes an identity, and how do we give one to a machine?
AI is a fancy number generator. You take text, convert it to numerical values, and plug it into a black box. On the other side pops out a mathematically precise prediction of what should come next based on the values the black box was trained against.
The so called "holy grail" of AI is to somehow turn this number box into something resembling a person. But people are so much more than what we say next in response to some stimuli.
"I think, therefore I am", the statement every young inquiring mind hear's at some point echoing from the past by Descartes. Can you call the process of crunching numbers "thought"? No, clearly not. So what is the difference between our word predictors, which are really powerful and useful today, and that which we would qualify as a person with an identity?
I made a post yesterday about my patent filings. This is a topic I've been exploring since before AI was widely known due to my love of philosophy. I think I should start to make some of my thinking a little more public and see what other people out there have to say.
I've filed 13 provisional patents for a cognitive architecture for LLM agents. I also submitted formal comments to NIST's AI Agent Standards Initiative on persistent identity and non-repudiation for AI agents, grounded in the same work. The working prototype runs on consumer hardware.
The AI agent space has some pretty big problems holding back the future, and I don't think there are any good solutions yet.
I think identity is the biggest concern because from my viewpoint it's the foundation for everything that comes next with AI. Every LLM agent starts every session from scratch. The whole industry responded with memory systems. Store facts, retrieve documents, inject them before the next response.
That gives an agent access to information. It doesn't give it an identity. An agent that knows your name isn't the same entity you spoke with yesterday. It's a new instance that read a file. The ICLR 2026 MemAgents workshop said the limiting factor isn't model capability anymore, it's memory. I don't think that's right though. Memory alone doesn't solve the greater problem. Nothing anyone has built turns memory into identity.
We're all worried about Terminator or creating a system that has terrible alignment. Right now, ethical principles get baked into model weights at training time and they stay there.
They can't get stronger when the agent actually lives through a situation that tests them. They can't weaken when they go untested for months. They don't adapt to who the agent is talking to or what the agent has been through. That's not a value system. That's a rulebook.
Something Dario Amodei wrote back in January is that alignment works at "the level of identity, character, values, and personality." But where's the infrastructure for that? Where is the system that lets identity and character and values actually persist and evolve through experience? I haven't found one.
Just like the alignment problem, we can't trust these systems to work autonomously just yet and have to constantly babysit them. Agents are getting deployed for longer and more complex work, but between sessions they just sit there.
Nothing happens. No consolidation, no reflection, nothing self-directed. And the few architectures that do run autonomously have no governance. No separation between what the agent wants to do and what it's allowed to do. They just execute until they finish or someone pulls the plug.
I built an architecture that addresses all three.
The agent reconstructs who it is each session from a persistent store of its own lived experiences. Not logs. Not summaries. Each experience carries the context and conditions under which it was formed. The agent's current condition shapes what it recalls, and what it recalls reshapes its condition. I designed that loop on purpose. The agent's memory isn't a search engine. What it remembers depends on who it is right now.
It has actual internal state. Dynamic dimensions that respond to real operational conditions, not a mood label in a system prompt. These inform how the agent handles ethical reasoning, and its sensitivity adjusts with its condition. When the agent's been isolated, it gets more cautious. When it's stable and connected, it reasons more freely.
Its values are dynamic too. They get stronger when tested by real experience and they decay when they go unchallenged. A value that's never been exercised shouldn't carry the same weight as one that's been earned through lived experience. That's what separates a living value system from a config file.
Between sessions, the agent runs autonomously on a governed schedule. Oversight reviews what it proposes before it can act. It consolidates its own memories, builds new connections across its knowledge base, proposes work, reflects. What it does when nobody's around feeds directly into who it is the next time it wakes up.
Everything connects through an association network linking experiences, values, behavioral patterns, knowledge, and procedures through weighted connections that evolve over time. What gets used gets stronger. What doesn't fades.
New connections form during autonomous processing. One recalled experience can activate related values, relevant procedures, and connected knowledge, and none of those connections had to be manually wired.
These subsystems hit a lot of the exact problems I know Anthropic is trying to solve. The really cool parts, which are harder to explain in a tweet, are what happens when all of these systems actually run together. Oh and the whole thing is model agnostic and able to run on consumer hardware or big production models without touching the weights. It's pure infrastructure.
I'm starting conversations with people working on agent architecture. I think a lot of what I've built connects directly to problems Anthropic is trying to solve. Happy to walk through the full architecture under NDA.

@NaShForts@AllTheMods I quite literally have all of the files for this saved with edit history, but ok 🤣 just to satisfy your tastebuds, here is some AI slop
@Rubick28785305@Em1_Marius@JoeMuma2002@AllTheMods Gravitas 1 and gravitas 2. We make the same style pack because that is what people want to actually play (majority). We have not one, but 2 expert packs in development at the moment but another reason we don’t make them often is because they take a *long* time to release.
@ObeliskGraphics@AllTheMods Quite literally did "not skyblock" for magic released 2 months ago, or TFC-GT via gravitas last year, thanks for the concern thouugh!
It's Tekkit SMP release day!
We know we are as excited as you are to give this pack a try, find out more via the link below, and don't forget to use code: tekkit at checkout for 20% off your first month on a server! https://t.co/cUa02u3oUu
