<div class="default-style">
<span style="font-size: 13pt;">I consider this very valuable work in that it points towards the complex, dynamic structure of thought, and style is recognized as a real property.</span>

<div class="default-style">
<span style="font-size: 13pt;">I suggest only that our <em>non-digital </em>Doppelgänger not be forgotten, the one that is <em>not </em>a model, but is constituted by our own second- or third-order processing of experience (as information). Is not the existence of <em>this</em> Doppelgänger not also worth all the adjectives that are suggested for the digital one?</span>

<span style="font-size: 13pt;">Thank you,</span>

I’m writing to invite you to participate in a unique research initiative I’m undertaking in close collaboration with Howard Bloom. Our goal is to create a new gold standard for thought modeling—AI systems that don’t merely replicate what a person knows, but how they think: their cognitive style, conceptual architecture, interdisciplinary patterns, and reasoning dynamics.
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
We're beginning by building AI models of deeply original thinkers—starting with Howard himself—and extending the project to a select group of philosophical, scientific, and cultural minds whose thought processes we believe are worth preserving, studying, and interacting with in new computational forms.
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
You’ve been identified as part of this vital network, and we’d be honored to include your voice and thinking style in the research. Participation would involve minimal time investment—just a few conversations or writings—and you’ll have access to a private, custom GPT that reflects your own ideas and conceptual patterns. This is part of a larger effort to map and simulate high-order human cognition using the most advanced tools available today.
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
The purpose isn’t to replace, but to reflect—and ultimately to extend your ideas in dialogue with the future.
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
If you’re interested, we’d love to tell you more. Please feel free to reach out with questions or let us know if you’d like to explore further.
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Warmly,
</div>
<div>
Ryan Dean
