Is anyone interested in a curiosity-driven"brain OS"core for AI?(not an expert)

2•kubinashi•4mo ago
Hi, I’m not an AI expert, but I have a strong gut feeling AI could be much more like a human brain—if we focused on the “core OS” of how humans really think, not just on bigger models.

Why this idea? When we compare the human brain and modern PCs, computers actually have much higher memory/storage and calculation speeds per “tick” than the brain’s moment-to-moment thinking. But humans are amazingly creative and flexible with extremely little working memory or raw data. Yet most current AI tries to “stuff” everything inside the model, keep all data/statistics, and just scale up. What if we built a SMALL core that works more like a human “brain OS”:

makes its own questions (“Why?” “What’s weird here?” “What’s interesting?”)

only keeps knowledge as loose indexes (like “I think I heard this somewhere”) and looks up info as needed

links outcomes/decisions with simple feelings or experience (“That felt good/bad/weird/curious”)

works on normal hardware, not just massive clusters

Why do this? I feel that trying to make everything “bigger” misses the key: Human thinking is about curiosity, flexible judgment, and ongoing motivation—not about big memory or giant models. So maybe AI should have a small, motivation-based “core” instead!

Example pseudocode (for illustration):

python class BrainOS: def __init__(self): self.curiosity = 1.0 self.memory_index = {} # Index only self.emotion = 0

    def motivate(self):
        if self.curiosity > 0.5:
            return "Why?"
    
    def recall(self, query):
        return self.memory_index.get(query, None)

    def learn(self, result, feeling):
        self.memory_index[result] = feeling
        self.emotion += feeling
(Just to show—I imagine the “core OS” being all about motivation, curiosity, and simple result tracking, not big data.)

So…

Has anyone tried to build something like this?

Am I missing obvious research or past attempts?

Is anyone interested in talking or collaborating to try a prototype?

Any advice, feedback, or info welcome!

Thanks for reading—I’m passionate but not technical, so any kind of comments or help are greatly appreciated!

someone wanna make AGI over here

its good

unless someone wanna use it to destroy humans

kubinashi•4mo ago
Thanks for the comment! Honestly, one big reason I’m thinking about this is because it seems like most of current AI development is running into a wall—huge models, tons of hardware and energy, but still no real “human-like” intelligence or flexibility. I really think we need to try new approaches, like making a simple, curiosity-driven “brain OS” for AI, that can work on smaller machines and is closer to how people actually think. No plans to destroy humans—just hoping for something more sustainable and creative!

Would love to hear your thoughts, or anyone else’s ideas!

kirito1337•4mo ago
To be honest, Your idea is really good.

Making AI run on small machines opens new possibilities for researchers and people who have potato PCs (like me) to run this AI model.

I am really interested, but big companies don't like this stuff for obvious reasons.

kubinashi•4mo ago
Thanks a ton—nice to meet another potato-PC hero!

Even if the big companies ignore this, I really hope more DIY/open-source AI pops up. If anyone wants to make a tiny prototype or just bounce ideas, I’m totally game!

I’m not a coder, so I can’t build or prototype this myself, but I’d love to brainstorm, discuss concepts, or be involved in the conversation as the idea grows.

Happy to contribute with ideas and feedback if any group wants to take this somewhere—even if it’s just for fun!

kirito1337•4mo ago
It's good. People will like this idea and I totally want in this project.
