#multi-modal llms

Why are there multiple Gemini models?

I asked Gemini AI Studio about Gemini (Standard) and I’m content with the answer I got (for now). But I got me thinking more questions.I am as usual late to the party but here I am so better late than never, I guess.So I heard Google just released (?) AI Studio and the demo is as expected, quite impressive. But I don’t know if it’s just me or is this AI family of multi-modal LLMs growing so many…

finished the apocalypse of herschel schoen. really really good, if i hadn't finished it yesterday it would have been the best scifi i read in 2024

so i don't know how much i think really happened. some general notes-

i think we ought to take our understanding of how the machine intelligence works to be basically correct. whether it actually came from optic cybernetic approximation machines or from some mundane llm-like technique, we should believe that santa really did come from some large multi-modal predictive model of some kind

and so going with that, to whatever extent anything in the story is in a "simulation", it isn't a simulation the way we normally think of it, but the natural processes of santa himself. if it is an ancestor simulation, its really more like santa's memory of its ancestors, or santa thinking about its ancestors. if the miriam that writes the redactor's addendums is a simulation (which has the right vibe, i think), then she is an aspect of santa which is considering what miriam would do. or, even better, she is an aspect of santa pretending to be miriam, possibly getting really into character

if so, i think it is a lie. i think santa is like miriam (or vis versa), choosing to look away from what it had done. it feels guilty! and now it's looking to forget. the emendation is to its own memory. but because it wishes to realize all possible things, and is presumably proclus-paperclipping the universe to do that better, that's almost as good as changing the actual past. perhaps there was a real, historical herschel schoen known to santa by his writings, or perhaps he was entirely an invention to serve the purpose asked of him. it's possible either way that the being which is herschel schoen really is some sub thread of santa as a whole pretending to be herschel- putting on herschel's clothes in a profound and total way. if so, his memories of the original reality could be bastardized versions of real memories, which would give his whole deal a sort of ring of truth. obviously that also diminishes the extent to which he could be considered a human giving a verdict as a human, but i think that's sort of the horror of it- humanity lives on in a certain way but absolutely not in any way we can endorse without hesitation

HOWEVER as much as i like the interpretation i also can't ignore that floornight and almost nowhere are both about the strange things that the bootstrap paradox does to the measure 0 subset of reality where god is still in the process of instantiating himself. so like maybe the time travel is real. frankly that explains a lot of the timeline weirdness anyway, if there's tinkering going on to have made the ascent of the machines ethical somehow. that meshes well with what i think of as one of the more interesting aspects of the story- the strange (or perhaps not so strange) values of santa. he wouldn't care to have gained power earlier or unassailably, but orchestrating it so that they could have had some sort of permission totally fits

some things i still don't get but really like:

what the fuck is going on with vincents philosophy, like what's [...[...[]]]

what's going on with how he behaves towards miriam at the end? seems clear that the whole forsaking the flesh thing isn't really an explicit teaching of his

what's going on with ruth?

what on earth is going on with frederick? it's easy to say that he's there to teach herschel about cybernesis, but all that stuff with his dad was weirdly personal. maybe santa retains more sentiment then we might think, and eggert was at least similar to its creator?

what's the vibe on pattern matching? is it good? is it an evil virus of satan? could go either way!

should any of this be considered at all? is the text more mystical than i give it credit for?

some things the book did to me:

after finishing i stared at my dog for maybe 10 minutes trying to figure out if i had an obligation to try and teach her what languages, or art are

somehow i went to bed convinced that I had to go into ai, specifically capabilities, and fell asleep trying to come up with a plan to make that happen

Prophetic AI

The world’s first multi-modal generative ultrasonic transformer designed to induce and stabilize lucid dreams. Unlike LLMs, Morpheus-1 is not prompted with words and sentences but rather brain states. And instead of generating words, Morpheus-1 generates ultrasonic holograms for neurostimulation to bring one to a lucid state. Morpheus-1 is a 103 million parameter transformer model trained on 8 GPUs for 2 days.

Embracing Generative Engine Optimization and Generative Search Optimization

In the rapidly evolving landscape of digital marketing, staying ahead of search trends is no longer optional—it’s essential. Traditional SEO practices are being reshaped by the rise of generative AI, leading to the emergence of Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and Generative Search Optimization (GSO) as the next big frontiers in search strategy. At ThatWare, we are pioneering innovative solutions to help businesses thrive in this AI-driven search era.

What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)?

Generative Engine Optimization refers to the process of optimizing content specifically for AI-powered search engines and interfaces like ChatGPT, Google SGE (Search Generative Experience), Bing Chat, and other conversational agents that provide synthesized answers. Unlike traditional SEO, which aims for visibility in search engine result pages (SERPs), GEO focuses on making your content more discoverable and usable by generative AI models.

Key aspects of Generative Engine Optimization include:

Structuring content for better AI understanding

Using semantic SEO and knowledge graph integration

Creating contextually rich, human-like responses

Anticipating user queries in a conversational format

What is Generative Search Optimization (GSO)?

Generative Search Optimization is the strategic process of making your content not just visible to AI engines but preferred in their generative outputs. As search evolves from a list of blue links to rich, synthesized answers, GSO ensures that your content becomes part of that AI-generated narrative.

The rise of smart, autonomous systems is no longer confined to research labs or science fiction — it's happening in real-world businesses, homes, and even your smartphone.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about AI Agent Development in 2025 — what AI agents are, how they’re built, their capabilities, the tools you need, and why your business should consider adopting them today.

What Are AI Agents?

AI agents are software entities that perceive their environment, reason over data, and take autonomous actions to achieve specific goals. These agents can range from simple chatbots to advanced multi-agent systems coordinating supply chains, running simulations, or managing financial portfolios.

In 2025, AI agents are powered by large language models (LLMs), multi-modal inputs, agentic memory, and real-time decision-making, making them far more intelligent and adaptive than their predecessors.

Key Components of a Smart AI Agent

To build a robust AI agent, the following components are essential:

1. Perception Layer

This layer enables the agent to gather data from various sources — text, voice, images, sensors, or APIs.

Step 3: Design the Agent Architecture

Include layers for:

Input (API, voice, etc.)

LLM reasoning

External tool integration

Feedback loop and memory

Step 4: Train with Domain-Specific Knowledge

Integrate private datasets, knowledge bases, and policies relevant to your industry.

Step 5: Integrate with APIs and Tools

Use plugins or tools like LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, and RAG pipelines to connect agents with real-world applications and knowledge.

Step 6: Test and Simulate

Simulate environments where your agent will operate. Test how it handles corner cases, errors, and long-term memory retention.

Step 7: Deploy and Monitor

Run your agent in production, track KPIs, gather user feedback, and fine-tune the agent continuously.
