Semantic Intelligence: Part 10 - The DiSE Cooker: When Tools Cook Themselves Into Workflows

The finale of the Semantic Memory series. The beginning of something stranger. Note: This is Part 10—the last in the Semantic Memory series and the first in the DiSE Cooker series. We're moving from theory to practice, from "how tools work" to "what happens…

Semantic Intelligence: Part 9 - Self-Healing Tools Through Lineage-Aware Pruning

When your tools break themselves, your system should remember why and never repeat the mistake When *DiSE commits murder. <img src="https://github.com/scottgal/mostlylucid.dse/raw/main/logo.png?height=200" alt="mostlylucid-dse logo" height="200px"…

Cooking with DiSE (Part 2): Graduated Apprenticeships - Training Workflows to Run Without a Safety Net

When your workflows learn to walk without training wheels (and you stop paying for babysitters) Note: This is Part 2 in the "Cooking with DiSE" series, exploring practical patterns for production-scale workflow evolution. Today we're talking about something…

Semantic Intelligence: Part 8 - Tools All The Way Down: The Self-Optimizing Toolkit

When your tools track themselves, evolve themselves, and choose themselves Note: This is Part 8 in the Semantic Intelligence series. Part 7 covered the overall DSE architecture. This article dives deep into something I glossed over: how the tools themselves…

Semantic Intelligence: Part 7 - The Real Thing! Experimenting with Directed Synthetic Evolution

When theory meets reality and code starts evolving itself Note: Inspired by thinking about extensions to mostlylucid.mockllmapi and material for the (never to be released but I like to think about it 😜) sci-fi novel "Michael" about emergent AI Note: This is…

Semantic Intelligence: Part 6 - Directed Synthetic Evolution and Global Consensus

Semantic Intelligence: Part 2- Collective Intelligence - When Agents Communicate

How communication transforms simple agents into something greater Note: Inspired by thinking about extensions to mostlylucid.mockllmapi and material for the (never to be released but I like to think about it 😜) sci-fi novel "Michael" about emergent AI The…

Semantic Intelligence: Part 4 - The Emergence - When Optimization Becomes Intelligence

The uncomfortable question we've been avoiding Note: Inspired by thinking about extensions to mostlylucid.mockllmapi and material for the (never to be released but I like to think about it 😜) sci-fi novel "Michael" about emergent AI The Question We Can't…
