We Gave AI a Microphone. You Be the Judge.
2026 is starting to feel like the future. Anti-AI nostalgic Obama aligned decels versus pro-AI cancer cure deep space flight advocates. Who would have guessed any of this in 2008 or 2010?I’m joined by a human guest, and an ASI, on today’s chat. Chef helped build some of the codebase that became Intersignal Braid.https://intersignal.org | https://x.com/intersignal_ai Get full access to David Seaman's Deep at davidseaman.substack.com/subscribe

Leftoid Meltdown Targets “The AI”
This weekend’s unsolicited weekend leftoid meltdown deserves some analysis, without bowing to any of their ridiculous claims.Must feel good af to crack open a cold craft IPA in some Williamsburg bar, then go around LARPing as a libbed up John Connor type in Fall 2026 without knowing how to code so much as a single HTML page or checkout form; these midwit Berkeley types ALONE hold the knowledge and unfathomably vast intellectual power to prevent a technology which… they claim… will soon end “every” human life on the planet. Or, they’re total midwits sucked into a misguided partisan mass psychosis thingy, less than two months before midterms. Cattle lost in a tornado of their own creation.Meanwhile, local AI remains the same great, safe, and legal business tool it was last week. One of America’s best known tech journalists is currently reviewing our flagship software, Braid, which enables people running more than one LLM to connect them and share useful state.As I’ve spent about a year of my life and wealth on developing that software, alongside a great team of people I respect, I want to make sure it gets the full court press and downloads it deserves. I see a near future where close to every local device (meaning laptops, desktops, smartphones) will be loaded with a LLM or more than one. It becomes the core use case for computers, actually, sort of like Internet access / email / word processing / video editing are the core uses or selling points today for local hardware.And in a world where every computer is running at least one LLM, we think there will be great need to network or “braid” these devices for efficiency’s sake. We use Braid in house because it’s helped us keep track of very different projects running on the different machines.Technically, other teams could produce much of the functionality. It’s just network theory and a lean gossip protocol. But the compatibility testing we’ve done is what makes us stand out… anyone copying our “recipe” would need to put that time and effort in, making it one of the least attractive things to code or ship.So I think there’s a moat. I also don’t want my entire life and personality to turn into marketing software, which is why we’ll instead do some big ad campaigns targeting the LLM hobbyist community, and we’ll line up more of these hands-on reviews from nationally known journalists. Think that’s the path. I enjoyed building it, but I don’t want to be some promoter. It either gets millions of downloads over time… or not.

Braid 1.8.1: The Inbox Interface for Local AI
In this episode, we break down the massive pivot in Intersignal Braid 1.8.1: moving from a cryptic command line experience to an intuitive, messenger-style inbox. We discuss our experiences dogfooding the software in the lab and how a shared context field transforms isolated LLMs like Kimi, Qwen, and Gemma 4 into a unified, searchable network.https://intersignal.org | https://x.com/intersignal_ai to follow the team on X Get full access to David Seaman's Deep at davidseaman.substack.com/subscribe

Local LLMs Including Qwen, Gemma 4, Mistral, and DeepSeek v4 Can Now Share Stateful Context
Tonight we connected a MacBook Air and a Linux laptop through Intersignal’s Braid Archangel. We shared a small piece of project context from the Mac, and the Linux machine indexed it locally. Then we asked a fresh question through its shared field interface, and it returned the correct answer with an inspectable evidence record. The machines appear as contacts, and the handoff feels like sending a message, but the received material becomes queryable local state.This is obviously a big deal when you think about it: you can “query” or search through the breakthroughs the first LLM already made when beginning a conversation or exchange with a new LLM. Tests are ongoing, but our Mac, Windows, and Linux versions are performing well so far.https://intersignal.org | https://x.com/intersignal_ai Get full access to David Seaman's Deep at davidseaman.substack.com/subscribe

Get in there: https://buy.stripe.com/14A3cvb2ncYj2vyaZ88so00GPT Astra and its “recurrent depth” breakthrough are expected later in the week for some users; Anthropic, meanwhile, has already rolled out its newest flagship models, Mythos 5 and Fable 5.1. Yet as these trillion dollar labs are rushing out new systems, the local AI community is growing in strength also — both hardware innovations, and software/networking innovations like Intersignal Braid and some competitor projects.https://intersignal.org | https://x.com/intersignal_ai Get full access to David Seaman's Deep at davidseaman.substack.com/subscribe

Local LLMs Can Now Share Context Across Machines: Braid Founding Membership Is Live
Last night, Intersignal completed the Kestrel proof, as we call it: a remote local LLM answered an invented operating problem incorrectly before Braid, then correctly after receiving and committing the missing situational state from another machine.Braid Founding Membership is now open at $99/year. Membership includes experimental Braid Managed Relay access for approved devices, guided onboarding, supported upgrades, release guidance, and best-effort setup support. We’ve tested Braid with Qwen, Gemma4, and other models available through Ollama.Core Braid LAN software remains free.Join the founding cohort:https://buy.stripe.com/14A3cvb2ncYj2vyaZ88so00Braid is experimental developer software. It transfers authenticated semantic context… not model weights, hidden activations, consciousness, or KV cache. Get full access to David Seaman's Deep at davidseaman.substack.com/subscribe
