Here is my first draft of the short story Below The API. (Original Pitch)
At ~8500 words, the story is one of the longest (public-facing) writings I’ve attempted, and I’d listen eagerly to feedback on what to cut. There are a few areas I know that I want to amplify in a final version as well – most notably, to explore the actual “protocols” that might emerge in a future “agent-net” that features in the story.
To that end, I do plan on sharing some musings Identity Protocols and theory of mind for AI agents, which has ended up forming a lot of my thinking in this story. Now that I’m done with the draft, I’m hoping to post some more of those notes in my PILL thread this week.
