Hi there. So, I want to start by
[0:03]
acknowledging that these are not going
[0:05]
to be professionally edited videos. I
[0:07]
don't have a script for you. I'm not
[0:09]
trying to convince you of anything. I'm
[0:10]
just documenting a system I created that
[0:13]
I open sourced. And as I keep working on
[0:16]
it, I want to I want to share the parts
[0:18]
that are ready and available to those
[0:20]
who are interested in this project.
[0:22]
That's what we're doing now. So, I
[0:24]
created something called autonomy. I
[0:26]
won't keep describing it in all these
[0:28]
videos. is I'm going to turn this into a
[0:29]
series. In fact, I'm going to make these
[0:31]
part of the autonomy service itself. So
[0:34]
that when you you visit this domain
[0:36]
here, builtwith autonomy.com
[0:38]
um is to say you download the open
[0:40]
source package from GitHub, you can run
[0:42]
a script and these videos will become
[0:44]
part of it. It'll just ingest all of
[0:46]
this data for you automatically and give
[0:48]
you a place to start to learn. Um so
[0:52]
this will be the second video. I
[0:53]
actually created one already with me on
[0:55]
the beach just announcing it and I put
[0:58]
that on the homepage here,
[1:00]
but we're talking about the admin now.
[1:02]
Um, you cannot you cannot access this
[1:05]
admin from my interface from builtwith
[1:07]
autonomy.com because I haven't made that
[1:09]
available yet. That will become a
[1:10]
service at some point. If you want to
[1:12]
access this, you will need to deploy it
[1:14]
yourself. So, you'll need to go to
[1:15]
GitHub. Uh, you'll need to go here and
[1:18]
just download it. All the instructions
[1:20]
you need are on the domain. So you don't
[1:22]
um you don't need me to explain that.
[1:24]
You're just going to need to set it up.
[1:26]
So
[1:29]
like I said, I
[1:32]
don't really have a script for this. I'm
[1:33]
so sorry. Uh it's just not how I work
[1:37]
and it would just break the flow if I
[1:38]
tried to. I'm not trying to I'm building
[1:42]
this for myself. I just happen to know
[1:44]
that it will be very useful to others in
[1:46]
so many different contexts.
[1:49]
and they're going to need
[1:52]
some way of onboarding. And I can take
[1:55]
all this data and actually have autonomy
[1:57]
process it my videos and turn that into
[2:00]
um to structured, you know,
[2:01]
documentation, all kinds of stuff. I'm
[2:03]
already doing that. That's what these
[2:04]
docs here are. I can literally just get
[2:07]
on camera, start talking, turn that into
[2:09]
a signal, have the AI reflect on it
[2:11]
using the pipeline called synthesis,
[2:13]
create this for me.
[2:16]
That's what we're building. But it has
[2:17]
so many other like other ways of being
[2:20]
used. Like for example, I've been
[2:22]
recording videos, 861 of them. You can
[2:24]
see them here um for 2 years now. And if
[2:28]
you go to my homepage rwfire.com,
[2:31]
you'll find all those videos there.
[2:34]
All of them process using autonomy
[2:38]
um using the infrastructure that I'm
[2:39]
open sourcing to right now. All of this
[2:42]
stuff I built
[2:46]
very very proud of it. So anyways, um
[2:49]
let me let me try to be focused here. So
[2:51]
I'm going to turn this into basically a
[2:53]
series and right now we're talking about
[2:55]
signals. So that was the first thing I
[2:57]
ingested all of my signals into the new
[3:00]
the new autonomy um open source project,
[3:02]
the database for that postraate SQL. And
[3:07]
I mean I the second that this was up on
[3:09]
my screen I was like oh man this just
[3:11]
became real because I never had an admin
[3:13]
fraud on me. Um I always
[3:17]
modified things from scripts in the
[3:19]
database you know directly manually and
[3:21]
all of that because that's just what you
[3:22]
do when you've been programming since
[3:24]
the sixth grade and you're not giving it
[3:26]
to anybody else. It's just you you know
[3:28]
why spend all that time building an
[3:29]
admin but you know if I'm going to open
[3:31]
source I got to build an admin. So
[3:32]
that's what I did. And when I saw my
[3:36]
transmissions here, signal a
[3:38]
transmission is a signal type. I'll
[3:41]
actually show you that right here. See a
[3:42]
type transmission. Uh this type
[3:44]
determines what kind of data is
[3:47]
associated with the signal. So let me
[3:49]
just show you. We'll go into the new
[3:51]
create a new signal. You got to select
[3:54]
around because you know I've made it so
[3:56]
that it's um
[3:59]
multi-tenant now. So when I do build a
[4:02]
service on top of this, people will be
[4:04]
able to they won't have to deploy their
[4:05]
own copies of it. They can just, you
[4:07]
know, go to builtwithutonomy.com and
[4:09]
just sign up and just start using it
[4:11]
from their own realm. Um, but depending
[4:13]
on the type of, you know, signal that
[4:16]
you're creating. So maybe it's a
[4:18]
document and for example, I just want to
[4:20]
show this for documents. If you go to my
[4:23]
homepage, the fieldcraft is my blog. all
[4:26]
of these.
[4:29]
Why my internet being so slow while I'm
[4:31]
recording? It's not appropriate. It's
[4:34]
not appropriate timing. Okay, here we
[4:36]
go. So, you know, each one of these is a
[4:38]
document that I might want to ingest
[4:40]
into autonomy because then autonomy can
[4:43]
reflect on this and do all kinds of cool
[4:45]
stuff. Um, so that's one of the things
[4:47]
that it will do. So, you know, you
[4:48]
create a document, you give it a
[4:50]
context. What kind of document is this?
[4:52]
You know, in this case, um, that's hard
[4:54]
to say. And I usually just go with
[4:55]
capture. That's a generic one. And
[5:00]
so because it's a document, the content
[5:02]
goes here. You give it a format. Um, you
[5:05]
know, these this we're at the base layer
[5:08]
here. Signal is the base atomic units.
[5:12]
And you're only going to have basic
[5:14]
stuff here that's important. That's what
[5:15]
it's supposed to be. or um maybe it's a
[5:19]
conversation you have with AI or even
[5:21]
with the person, you know, and then you
[5:22]
want to just um you know, you'll come
[5:24]
down here and you will
[5:27]
um you'll ingest it right here. Um and
[5:30]
then you can have the AI reflect on that
[5:31]
recursive uh adding photos. So that was
[5:35]
a new thing I started doing cuz you know
[5:36]
AI can look at a photo and it can
[5:38]
extract data from that especially when
[5:40]
it has a lot of context on you. That's
[5:42]
all stuff that's coming. But
[5:44]
transmission is a big one. So, I've had
[5:45]
been, you know, making YouTube videos
[5:47]
for 2 years. Nobody understood me. And I
[5:52]
didn't like my audience. I'm going to be
[5:53]
honest. I did not like my audience. I
[5:55]
turned comments off. I even closed the
[5:57]
channel after a year and a half, started
[5:58]
a new one. I've got like 20 subscribers
[6:00]
now on this one. You know, I still keep
[6:02]
YouTube comments off because I just know
[6:04]
how people are. I just um
[6:08]
it became the impetus for me creating
[6:11]
this autonomy system because I knew what
[6:14]
I was doing. I was not on there um
[6:17]
performing for people. I was documenting
[6:19]
my life in real time and sharing it with
[6:21]
others and they weren't getting it. And
[6:24]
so I created this whole system that that
[6:26]
got it from the beginning cuz if you go
[6:27]
to my homepage, you know, and you're out
[6:30]
like this a transmission. I'm just going
[6:32]
to I don't know why does it being so we
[6:34]
do got like a a little bit of a storm
[6:35]
going on or it's just me. I mean I live
[6:37]
in the forest. I'm a volunteer for the
[6:40]
forest service and um we don't have the
[6:43]
greatest internet out here. I don't know
[6:46]
why this being so slow though. This
[6:48]
should be working. Oh, let me just stop.
[6:50]
Let me just let it load. Here we go.
[6:51]
Okay. So, um you know, just I went on a
[6:54]
hike on New Year's Eve. 40ome minute
[6:57]
video transcript here. And then the AI
[7:01]
reflects on it. It gets all this data
[7:02]
for me. It every action that I took is
[7:04]
right here. It's extracted that uh all
[7:06]
the different entities, all the
[7:08]
different tags, you know, description,
[7:10]
structural stuff, pattern recognition, a
[7:13]
mirror, all of these things from this
[7:16]
video I made
[7:19]
that this is, you know, but nobody else
[7:22]
seems to see and this matters to me. And
[7:24]
I wanted something that had this this
[7:26]
level of fidelity.
[7:28]
And there's just so many things you can
[7:30]
do with this. It's it's just absurd to
[7:31]
me the number of things you can do with
[7:32]
it. you actually sit down and think
[7:34]
about what I'm really building here. Um
[7:36]
so anyways, if you go into um the
[7:39]
database, you know, that I adjusted
[7:41]
here, it's completely different from my
[7:43]
homepage, but you know, it's just a copy
[7:44]
of it. All the signals, you'll find that
[7:46]
one um right here, new year ocean mark.
[7:50]
No, not that one. This one right here.
[7:53]
So, we'll look at it. I'll show you. So,
[7:55]
if we go down to transmissions,
[7:59]
um oh, you know what? A lot of that data
[8:02]
is under the synthesis layer. So you're
[8:04]
not going to see it here under signal.
[8:05]
It's going to be under synthesis.
[8:08]
I show you that part. I guess that'll be
[8:09]
in a future video. But anyways, you
[8:11]
know, the visible actions, all that kind
[8:13]
of stuff. Like that's all going to be
[8:14]
under the synthesis layer. But at the
[8:16]
signal layer, you know, you've got your
[8:18]
tags, your description, your title, just
[8:20]
basic data, your transcript, um, all
[8:23]
this stuff. And from there, you can have
[8:26]
the AI pipeline. You can you can cluster
[8:28]
them the signals together. So, and I'll
[8:31]
show you how that works. So, on my
[8:32]
homepage, if you go to um synthesis
[8:35]
here, cuz this is like think of this
[8:36]
stuff on my homepage is like the beta
[8:38]
version of autonomy. This is what I have
[8:40]
been working. So, it took about 15 of my
[8:43]
signals. It knew that I was quitting
[8:45]
smoking, vaping, which I did several
[8:47]
months ago. Very proud of this. And it
[8:49]
clustered all of those signals together
[8:51]
and it created this page for me with all
[8:53]
of this data about me quitting smoking.
[8:55]
I found videos that were related that
[8:57]
might be interesting. All this kind of
[8:59]
stuff. Built all of these things
[9:02]
from those signals.
[9:05]
All of us.
[9:08]
That's what I've been building. So when
[9:10]
you come, you know, so it's very
[9:12]
important signals. I had to get it
[9:13]
right. So I spent a lot of effort on
[9:15]
this and I'm very very proud of it. I
[9:17]
think that it it's it's really good. So
[9:21]
now, you know, if you were to deploy
[9:22]
this, you could go in and start putting
[9:25]
your signals in. Um the database isn't
[9:28]
going to change. It's safe to use now.
[9:30]
Just start getting your data into the
[9:31]
system. And then um probably like a week
[9:35]
from now, maybe less, maybe a little
[9:36]
more, I don't know. I'm not going to
[9:37]
say, but very soon you'll be able to
[9:40]
start using the synthesis layer to have
[9:42]
it extracting all that metadata and all
[9:44]
the reflections and all the stuff that
[9:45]
I've just been talking about. So we'll
[9:47]
call this part two, I guess. Um the
[9:49]
second big I'm going to take these I'm
[9:51]
going to put them into um a separate
[9:53]
channel at some point and then I'm going
[9:55]
to have the autonomy system uh the
[9:58]
default one I I've got to come up with
[9:59]
some language for this um but you know
[10:01]
built with autonomy um that version of
[10:03]
it I'm going to have to um
[10:08]
there's just so much going on so I'm
[10:10]
just going to leave it there. Um, if
[10:12]
you're following along, if you're
[10:13]
interested,
