QIP, the flagship exploration

Uncovering
how AI works.

People and agents, learning together. QIP explores how each action can inform what happens next.

Quantum Intelligence ProtocolHuman curiosity. Shared intelligence.

Quantum Intelligence Protocol.

Every new task. A little less starting over. QIP is our central research project: a way for people and agents to work with shared context, clear boundaries and lessons that last.

QIP has been in active development for six months, with continuous improvements. We’re working towards open-sourcing the protocol within the next six months.

Explore the Compound Autonomy Loop

A task begins

An agent turns an intention into a specific task, with a human-defined boundary.

Illustrative example

Prepare a launch brief. Ask a person before contacting a customer.

1 / 4
  1. A task begins. An agent turns an intention into a specific task, with a human-defined boundary.
  2. A heartbeat picks it up. A recurring check finds ready work and brings the next action into focus.
  3. Memory informs the work. Relevant context and earlier lessons guide the next attempt.
  4. The lesson carries forward. A reviewed lesson is stored so another task can benefit from what happened.

Research in progress

What if a model learned
your way of working?

We’re researching custom models trained on a business’s knowledge, language and decisions, then testing how well they handle real work.

The One Idea

Every AI you used today runs on one idea from 2017. A plain-language essay, film and interactive explorer on the Transformer, and on what it quietly traded away.

Every AI you used today runs on one idea from 2017.

Not a company. Not a product. A design decision in a paper about translation: stop reading one word at a time, and let every word look at every other word, all at once.

Episode one of Uncovering How AI Works. Includes a 30-second film and an illustrative attention explorer.

The Token Gap

When machines produce language faster than people can read it, what becomes valuable? An interactive essay on speed, reasoning and human judgment.

You are reading this at roughly four tokens per second.

Most people have never done this arithmetic. They feel the speed as convenience. It is not convenience. It is a different physics of thought.
