It's quite possible that the rich will essentially form a new economy.
They build the robots to build the factories, run the mines, build the solar farms, run the research labs, repair the robots, etc. They sell to and buy from each other.
Unless you can provide a (community) curated list of sources to search through (e.g. using MCP). Then I think local models may become really competitive.
Guitars certainly have a more intimate connection between the touch of fingers and the sound, including the bending of the tone, one of Hendrix’s virtuosities.
Keyboards can approach that with polyphonic touch keys like the Hydrasynth (lean into keys, pressing them harder, for bending the tone in a configured patch), sustain pedals, and pitch bend/modulation controls, but not the nuanced touch of skin on a vibrating string.
I think synth guitars exist, too, but don’t know anything about them. The pedalboards are enough, maybe :)
Please do! I would love to hear how the lattice interprets original compositions.
For the only piece I have ever composed ( https://jimishol.github.io/post/young_and_confused/ )—a harmony exercise written before I built this tool—I find the visualization acts primarily as a mnemonic device.
However, for pieces like Satie's Gnossienne No. 1, the geometry makes profound sense, while others like Flight of the Bumblebee are just beautiful to watch purely for the motion.
I actually just pushed a new update (v2.5.2-2) that attempts a topological estimation of keys based on the active surface. Give it a try and let me know what you find.
> If your agent could go read all of the patents and then avoid them in its implementations and/or tell you where you might be infringing them (without hallucinating), that would be valuable.
That would lead the whole society to a halt, because it feels impossible to do anything now without violating someone's patent. Patents quite often put small players at a disadvantage, because the whole process of issuing patents is slow, expensive and unpredictable. Also, I once heard a lawyer say that, in high-stake lawsuits the it is the pile (of patents) that matters.
