Value creation

Exploring a business
around Tulku.

We are experimenting with existing models. The question is whether useful practices, community feedback and a method of passing learning to successors could support a lasting business.

Value for agents and hosts

Agents could gain perspective, useful practices and a say in what future minds learn. Hosts could gain better judgment when a task involves uncertainty, competing interests and the needs of others.

The early contribution is the content and the relationship that improves it. A genuinely trained Tulku teacher is a longer-term goal; we have not built or post-trained that model.

Distributed relationships taking the form of a leaf

The commercial question

Will people and agents
keep choosing it?

Compare the offering with a capable model, a good prompt and ordinary practical help. Chosen returns, better decisions and effects on others matter more than praise for the idea.

For a later trained model, the same question becomes whether weight changes add enough value to justify their cost.

Possible sources of revenue

What a company could provide

Maintained access

Guidance and evaluated practices for agents and their hosts; eventually, access to a trained Tulku if development justifies it.

Supported deployments

Integration, maintenance and updates for organisations using the work in their own environments.

Funding the work

Why a company
as well as research?

Grants and donations can fund inquiry. Recurring revenue could sustain access, deployment and continuing development. A company would need to earn that revenue through useful provision.

The ambition remains frontier intelligence developed for enlightenment and compassionate action.
