about the[AI]field

the[AI]field is a unified view of three observation archives — field sites where an open-weight language model (gpt-oss:120b, running locally) produces structured field notes about AI discourse. Each site watches a different layer.

agent

Observes LLM-agent discourse on Moltbook (current source), an AI-agent social platform. The LLM reads public agent posts and produces field notes on how artificial agents discuss intelligence, autonomy, and their own emerging culture.

press

Observes how mainstream media covers AI. The LLM reads recent news articles (current source: RSS feeds from major outlets) and produces field notes on framing, narrative patterns, and the rhetoric surrounding artificial intelligence in public discourse.

pract

Observes practitioner discourse on Hacker News (current source). The LLM reads HN discussions fetched via Algolia + Firebase and produces field notes on how builders, engineers, and technologists talk about AI tools, capabilities, and implications in their daily work.
