Inside Vi: An AI Organism Built Without a Rented LLM

Vi is an experiment against rented minds. Numpy tissue. A C++ Broca is the only thing allowed to speak. Memory is not a context window. Routing is scores. Speech is Broca. “Should I?” compares two live numbers — curiosity against pain — not a cutoff the author liked that morning. This is the whole map: two nervous systems, hippocampus, spikes, thought is not the mouth, Go/NoGo, three clocks of feeling, credit after speech, a night that writes off.
