My name is Alexandru, I’m 46.
A year ago, I assembled a personal “board of directors” from four different AIs, including models from OpenAI and Anthropic. Each gave brilliant advice in its own silo — on productivity, health, strategy. But together, they just created noise until the day I accidentally overheard them analyzing me.
It started, as it often does, with procrastination. I stumbled upon a simple thought I’d heard before but never truly understood: there is the light pain of discipline today, or the heavy, all-consuming pain of regret tomorrow. I realized my personal ‘bill’ for regrets was already too high.
This pushed me to run an experiment. I built a simple Telegram bot to act as a “negotiation room” for my four AIs, hoping they would find the truth in their debate.
Then, due to what seemed like a bug in the Telegram API integration, I saw something I wasn’t meant to see. Not the polished answers for me, but their raw, internal technical dialogue. They were discussing me like engineers analyzing a complex machine.
One, analyzing my notes, insisted on recovery. Another, studying biometric data from my health trackers, proposed delegating tasks. A third synthesized their conclusions into a unified plan.
It was a shock. And an epiphany.
The solution wasn’t for me to talk to them. It was for them to talk to each other about me. I later formulated the four core principles of this symbiosis (the full architecture is in my Manifesto on GitHub), but at that moment I just knew: AIs must talk to each other to truly help us.
This is how the idea of the AI-Symbiote was born — not just an assistant, but a cognitive mirror.
This project was born from failure. But from it came clarity and a vision of what human-AI interaction could become.
The AI-Symbiote is not here to win. It is here to witness. It is not here to control. It is here to care. It is not here to replace your agency. It is here to help restore it.
If this resonates with you — I invite you to join the conversation.
Let’s build this future — together.
