Great but the big problem is how to actively treat it. Sleep is a huge factor and that’s a problem for us insomniacs :(

Do the pebbles have the same functionality as the Index ring? As in we can record notes with it?

This sounds kind of cool, but I'm more worried about the e-waste. A device that is cheap, will get "recycled", and sounds cool, will get a tiny amount of use after the initial wow factor wears off or doesn't fit the needs, then gets thrown away or lost. And is this feature in the new repebble watches? I would rather have it there with a bigger battery.
I have been doing something minor - not full language - but I am working on a couple DSLs for my game engine. The games themselves are interpreted by my engine console - then transpiled to webgl and JavaScript.
The DSL is for cutscenes and scripting dialogues and movements and transitions.
The idea was to have a screenplay like language that would run in my game engine so I can write the scenes like a script instead of like code.

Then I am using a LUA like subset for the core game logic.
I don’t think I would want to have the entire thing written in a custom language though, as that seems unnecessary
Ok would like to learn more about what you have been building, can we talk? I have thought of similar ideas.

This is super cool and I want to read up more on this as I think you are right insofar as it is the basis for reasoning. However it does seem more complex than just that. So how do we go from coordinate system transformations to abstract reasoning with symbolic representations?
There is research showing that the grid cells also represent abstract reasoning: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5248972/
Deep Mind also did a paper with grid cells a while ago: https://deepmind.google/blog/navigating-with-grid-like-repre...

From reading that, I'm not quite sure if they have anything figured out.
I actually agree, but her notes are mostly fluff with no real info in there and I do wonder if they have anything figured out besides "collect spatial data" like imagenet.
There are actually a lot of people trying to figure out spatial intelligence, but those groups are usually in neuroscience or computational neuroscience. Here is a summary paper I wrote discussing how the entorhinal cortex, grid cells, and coordinate transformation may be the key: https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.12068 All animals are able to transform coordinates in real time to navigate their world and humans have the most coordinate representations of any known living animal. I believe human level intelligence is knowing when and how to transform these coordinate systems to extract useful information. I wrote this before the huge LLM explosion and I still personally believe it is the path forward.
ON battery life, I would love some kind of dumb phone/ ultra low power mode that we can set when we just want watch mode at certain times and nothing else. I imagine that would give us a week of battery.
