Robowaifu-OS & Robowaifu-Brain(cluster) Robowaifu Technician 09/13/2019 (Fri) 11:29:59 No.201 [Reply] [Last]

I realize it's a bit grandiose (though probably no more than the whole idea of creating a irl robowaifu in the first place) but I want to begin thinking about how to create a working robowaifu 'brain', and how to create a special operating system to run on her so she will have the best chance of remaining an open, safe & secure platform. OS Language Choice C is by far the single largest source of security holes in software history, so it's out more or less automatically by default. I'm sure that causes many C developers to sneer at the very thought of a non-C-based operating system, but the unavoidable cost of fixing the large numbers of bugs and security holes that are inevitable for a large C project is simply more than can be borne by a small team. There is much else to do besides writing code here, and C hooks can be generated wherever deemed necessary as well. C++ is the best candidate for me personally, since it's the language I know best (I also know C too). It's also basically as low level as C but with far better abstractions and much better type-checking. And just like C, you can inline Assembler code wherever needed in C++. Although poorly-written C++ can be as bad as C code in terms of safety due to the necessity of it being compatible with C, it also has many facilities to not go there for the sane coder who adheres to simple, tried-and-true guidelines. There is also a good C++ project already ongoing that could be used for a clustered unikernel OS approach for speed and safety. This approach could save drastic amounts of time for many reasons, not the least of which is tightly constrained debugging. Every 'process' is literally it's own single-threaded kernel, and mountains of old-style cruft (and thinking) typical with OS development simply vanishes. FORTRAN is a very well-established language for the sciences, but a) there aren't a lot of FORTRAN coders, and b) it's probably not the greatest at being a general-purpose language anyway. I'm sure it could be made to run robotics hardware, but would probably be a challenge to turn into an OS. There are plenty of dujour SJW & coffee languages out there, but quite apart from the rampant faggotry & SJWtardism plainly evident in most of their communities, none of them have the kind of industrial experience and pure backbone that C, C++, or FORTRAN have. D and Ada are special cases and possibly bear due consideration in some year's time, but for now C++ is the obvious choice to me for a Robowaifu OS foundation, Python probably being the best scripting language for it.

>>42436 >>42439 Neat! Yeah, I think this whole tree of exploration offers some promise. Just like with so-called "control monkees" & MOCAP in the film industries, acting out the desired motions for robowaifus promises to bear fruit. Combined with "digital doubles" (the AI kind, not the film kind) and massive stochastic training sets, we could soon see robowaifus walking & doing other things with little to no programming required by end users (and even much-less from the developers as well). We develop the skill of being "compliant" from childhood. Simply training on human-based exemplars for this stuff should produce good results if its conducted well. Thanks, meta ronin!

The good news is that it seems like it was genuinely made for good purposes, and the idea of robowaifus was brought up as a near-ludicrous idea, so it isn't some sort of attack. The other good news is that it might be better for us in the long run, it would be far harder for libshites to do a Detroit: Become Human LARP if the robowaifu isn't legally human. And ofc, no Earthly law can supersede a Holy marriage, the actual marriage. Many people, including many Christians, seem to confuse legal marriage with actual marriage.

Kiwi 10/10/2025 (Fri) 22:01:32 No.42201

>>42188 >Magnet in joule thief inductor This would make it far less efficient. You're storing electricity in a magnetic field, then using its collapse to send a high voltage pulse to the LED. A magnet in the inductor will create a reactance resisting the flow of current in either the buildup or collapse phase, depending on orientation. This will result in the inductor and magnet getting heated in proportion to the energy losses fighting the magnetic field. To provide an analogy, imagine the current flow is water. In this example, the water is building pressure to open a door that has a spring behind it to ensure enough water pressure is built up. Your magnet would be adding a paddle attached to a source of friction that varies in resistivity depending on direction of current flow. It just makes the system worse. Please don't do this, it's a waste of power and a magnet. I'm curious how you came to this idea?

Robowaifu Technician 10/11/2025 (Sat) 08:42:26 No.42206

>>42201 There was a patent for a free energy device called the "motionless electromagnetic generator" or MEG that is basically a transformer with a magnet in it, and some people have demonstrated an increase in amperage output from it even without tuning the input frequency for the most efficient output: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvNyDp_XYYw But having seen the patent & being familiar with how patents often lie by omission to keep people from successfully replicating the invention, the first thing that came to mind was that if the input coil was an air core pulsed with DC to negate the permanent magnet, then the flux would leave the output coil, creating a pulse of current, then when the DC input failed the flux would return to it on its own, creating another pulse in reverse. The original patent just says AC, and the flux from the permanent magnet & the input coil both go to the output, which only seems necessary because the flux wouldn't return on its own. I was thinking about making a self-oscillating circuit like that Joule Thief and had the idea to combine it with my modified MEG concept, but trying to think of how to do it with a single ferrite core. My first thought was to make the building-up part reinforce the permanent magnet's field and when it collapses make the output of the Joule Thief power the coil that switches the flux of the permanent magnet. I wasn't sure what effect this would have on the efficiency, so I figured I'd ask here. I wasn't sure if reinforcing the permanent magnet with an electromagnet would be useful in any way, so I thought of just removing the permanent magnet entirely.

Cognitivie Architecture : Discussion Kiwi 08/22/2023 (Tue) 05:03:37 No.24783 [Reply] [Last]

Chii Cogito Ergo Chii Chii thinks, therefore Chii is. Cognitive architecture is the study of the building blocks which lead to cognition. The structures from which thought emerges. Let's start with the three main aspects of mind; Sentience: Ability to experience sensations and feelings. Her sensors communicate states to her. She senses your hand holding hers and can react. Feelings, having emotions. Her hand being held bring her happiness. This builds on her capacity for subjective experience, related to qualia. Self-awareness: Capacity to differentiate the self from external actors and objects. When presented with a mirror, echo, or other self referential sensory input is recognized as the self. She sees herself in your eyes reflection and recognizes that is her, that she is being held by you. Sapience: Perception of knowledge. Linking concepts and meanings. Able to discern correlations congruent with having wisdom. She sees you collapse into your chair. She infers your state of exhaustion and brings you something to drink. These building blocks integrate and allow her to be. She doesn't just feel, she has qualia. She doesn't see her reflection, she sees herself reflected, she acknowledges her own existence. She doesn't just find relevant data, she works with concepts and integrates her feelings and personality when forming a response. Cognition, subjective thought reliant on a conscious separation of the self and external reality that integrates knowledge of the latter. A state beyond current AI, a true intellect. This thread is dedicated to all the steps on the long journey towards a waifu that truly thinks and feels.

Self-driving cars AI + hardware Robowaifu Technician 09/11/2019 (Wed) 07:13:28 No.112 [Reply]

Obviously the AI and hardware needed to run an autonomous gynoid robot is going to be much more complicated than that required to drive an autonomous car, but there are at least some similarities, and the cars are very nearly here now. There are also several similarities between the automobile design, production and sales industries and what I envision will be their counterparts in the 'Companion Robot' industries. Practically every single advance in self-driving cars will eventually have important ramifications for the development and production of Robowaifus.

ITT: post ideas and news about self-driving cars and the hardware and software that makes them possible. Also discuss the technical, regulatory, and social challenges ahead for them. Please keep in mind this is the /robowaifu/ board, and if you have any insights about how you think these topics may crossover and apply here would also be welcome.
