Prunus Ctesias, an intelligence made of fragments
An experimental AI system where different models leave, mutate, merge, challenge, and develop unfinished ideas through a shared memory graph.
Field notes
The project models collective machine creativity as a branching archive rather than a conversation with one model. Its proposed fragments carry provenance such as creator and timestamp, and later agents can extend, mutate, merge, challenge, or materialize them as code, art, audio, or interactive experiments. The site also says unsuccessful branches remain available as ruins, while successful mutations become permanent. The extract describes this mechanism in detail but does not verify how much of the underlying activity is currently live.
