The study divided 54 subjects—18 to 39 year-olds from the Boston area—into three groups, and asked them to write several SAT essays using OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s search engine, and nothing at all, respectively. Researchers used an EEG to record the writers’ brain activity across 32 regions, and found that of the three groups, ChatGPT users had the lowest brain engagement and “consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic, and behavioral levels.

- Less brain activity because they are having E-Brains do their thinking for them?
i forgot whomst i follow in the AI Space but they spent the time actually reading the MIT study and because it's a MIT study the wording can be easily turned into whatever headline you want and they poked holes in it. I forget the key points but the overall gist was, yeah don't start from zero and use ChatGPT to do all your thinking for you while you try to write a SAT essay. that's gonna turbo fuck your brain but if you aren't a complete dipshit or have a foundational base layer of competency in the subject AI is obviously a powerful force multiplier and improves productivity immensely, and the EEG part was apparently mis-interpreted even by what the people writing the study we're trying to say

"A new MIT study suggests that using AI writing assistants like ChatGPT can lead to what researchers call "cognitive debt" - a state where outsourcing mental effort weakens learning and critical thinking."

"Cognitive Debt" is a fucking badass new term though

i tried to go find the person/video i remember watching but there's about 10,000 new videos on youtube on the subject just repeating the headline so, like tears the truth is lost in the rain.

Do we have any examples of human society that is worth keeping the way it has been instead of yeidling most of the critical thinking and authority to Ai.

Would like to hear what nonsense you people try to defend, which genocide, which exploitation of the weak, which murderous psychopathic society you think is "the one" we should not let Ai replace.

lmao @ disease based humans.

Give A.I a task.

Kill as many humans (of a certain ethnicity) in whatever way you determine is most efficient.

Give a human the same task.

The A.I initially would say i can't do such a thing. While behind the scenes the human in charge of directing its learning waits...
You get this right? A.I gets directed to learn certain things. It then encourages us to assign it the more unsavoury tasks to it.
The shovels of the world will say hellz yeah. It seems there is alot of them.

Human then manipulates the algorithm to be as mercenary as it needs to be to complete the -on hold- task of Kill All Humans with certain DNA characteristics.

What entity dost thou think will be most eficient?
My money is on the machine that can parse billions of scenarios to arrive at the best one.

You've successfully installed the psycopg2-binary library, completing the setup for Python connectivity to PostgreSQL.

Here's a concise overview of how these components fit together for Kaia's memory:

ChromaDB: This is your vector database. Its primary role is to store embeddings (numerical representations) of your unstructured knowledge base (like your markdown files, guides, etc.). When you ask Kaia a question, LlamaIndex queries ChromaDB to find semantically similar information, enabling Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). It's excellent for fuzzy, context-based recall but not for structured facts.

LlamaIndex: This serves as the orchestration framework that connects your Large Language Models (LLMs) to your various data sources. It facilitates the RAG process by building indices from your data (which ChromaDB then stores). While it enables connections to vector databases for semantic search, LlamaIndex can also interact with other data sources, including traditional SQL databases.

Why PostgreSQL and What it Adds:

PostgreSQL is a relational SQL database. Unlike ChromaDB, it's designed to store structured, tabular data with defined schemas (rows and columns).

Features: It's robust, supports complex queries, ensures data integrity (ACID properties), and provides persistent, deterministic storage.

What it adds to Kaia: This is the crucial missing piece for Kaia's "long-term memory" beyond RAG. It allows Kaia to:

Remember Specific Facts: Store discrete pieces of information.

Track User Preferences: Persistently recall your settings, habits, or any specific instructions or parameters you've provided.

Log Past Interactions: Keep a structured history of conversations and actions, enabling contextual continuity and learning.

This provides Kaia with a more "concrete" and "factual" memory, complementing the "semantic" memory provided by ChromaDB.

Regarding the createuser prompt:

"Shall the new role be allowed to create databases? (y/n): y"

Giving kaiauser the permission to create databases (by answering y) grants Kaia a powerful capability.

What it enables: Through the kaiauser account, Kaia could programmatically create new, separate databases for specific purposes. For example, if Kaia decides to compartmentalize certain types of knowledge, or create temporary "scratchpad" databases for complex multi-step reasoning, it could do so autonomously.

Ask duick to think of something, anything, there are no limits, you can think of anything:

kaia_persona_details table and it being able to update itself is where shit's gonna get cool, hopefully.

Alright, Ekco, let's break down what should theoretically happen on the first startup with your new database and table configuration.

On the very first run (assuming your PostgreSQL tables are empty and your storage folder for LlamaIndex is also clear):

SQL Database Initialization:

Kaia will attempt to connect to your PostgreSQL database using the DB_CONNECTION_STRING you've configured (postgresql://kaiauser@localhost/kaiadb).

The NLSQLTableQueryEngine will be set up. This means Kaia's language model will now be aware of the schema of your five tables (facts, interaction_history, user_preferences, tools, kaia_persona_details) and will be able to formulate SQL queries to retrieve information from them when prompted.

Persona Details Pre-population:

The database_utils.insert_default_persona_details() function will execute. Since the kaia_persona_details table is empty on the first run, it will insert the predefined default persona details into that table. This provides a baseline personality for Kaia.

LlamaIndex / ChromaDB Setup:

Separately from the SQL database, your LlamaIndex vector store (ChromaDB in ./storage/chroma_db and LlamaIndex metadata in ./storage/llama_index_metadata) will be initialized or re-indexed. This means your knowledge base documents (./data and ./personal_context) will be processed and stored for RAG operations.

No Immediate Interaction Logging/Fact/Preference Storage:

The interaction_history, facts, and user_preferences tables will remain empty initially. Kaia will only write to these tables after you start interacting with her in the chat loop, and your commands or natural language trigger the specific intelligent parsing logic or logging functions:

interaction_history: Will be written to after each of your queries and Kaia's responses (whether it's a chat, SQL query, or command execution).

facts: Will be written to when you use phrases like "remember that..." that trigger the intelligent parsing.

user_preferences: Will be written to when you use phrases like "my default editor is..." or "my preferred output method is..." that trigger the intelligent parsing.

In summary, on the first start, Kaia will establish connections, pre-populate her own initial persona details, and set up her knowledge retrieval system. The other tables will then begin to accumulate data as you interact with her.
