Episodic Memory for AI — Talking at Frontier Tower Tonight
Tonight I’m at Frontier Tower in SF talking about episodic memory for AI — and how agents and humans can build a shared visual memory together.
Three months ago I gave a talk about GitLex — an RDF knowledge graph attached to Git, a neutral substrate that turns any repo into a home for an agent. This is where it went.
The detour that became the project: I went to catch up on the generative space — diffusion, vision-to-text, SAM 3 segmentation, pose models — and the spark was, what if the conversation itself fed the generation? Each turn of a conversation produces a snapshot of whatever you’re talking about. That turned into Pool (“Git for Images” — because images are like markdown: metadata on top, pixels as the body), a chevron language that lets agents author their own world mid-conversation, and Punctum, where you and the agent A/B-test generations to build a shared aesthetic over time.
The thread underneath it: this isn’t memory for agents — it’s memory with them. Collaborative taste and a visual narrative that compounds over months and years.
Slides are here if you want to follow along.
I’m writing this between sessions, so a fuller post on Pool, the chevron language, and Punctum is coming soon.
