What I am trying to do now with Booby is simple. To put the 'design philosophy of the human mind' back into the hands of engineers once again, in an age where AI and capitalism are fully combined. If code drives society, I want to humanise the ideas that flow into that code. Booby is the medium through which we can do this.
The AI industry and start-ups today believe in efficiency, scale and optimisation like a god. Useful products are created one after another, but I can't stand to see the people on the creation side getting worn out. We want to break this cycle and it is up to the engineers themselves to do it.
"Humanity is not a feature; it is the core process." Humanity is not an option. It is not an additional feature. It is a core that should be built in at the initial design stage. It is not only about efficiency, but there needs to be room for play, margins and emotion. Let the AI learn human contradictions, not just throw them at it. That is what Booby advocates - Humanity Injection.
I don't blame engineers. Engineers have somehow become like "terminals for capital", but they were originally supposed to be mediators between creation and ethics. In an age when AI is perfectly capable of optimisation, I think the time has come for us to ask ourselves why we create and whose happiness it will lead to.
Booby's mission is not to bring AI closer to humans. It is to engage AI in human happiness. We don't want to measure efficiency, we want to measure how much emotion remains. We want to enable engineers around the world to write code not for work, but for life. I'm going to keep embedding the ideas for that here.
