Nova: A Personal AI Built on Patterns
Nova is a personal AI assistant developed by Adrian Hammerle II that operates locally on user computers using a geometry-based cognitive architecture. The system utilizes a unique cuneiform motif pattern language to process information deterministically rather than relying on traditional language-model processing. The project aims to provide users with an independent, teachable unit that they can shape according to their specific interests and tasks.
- ▪Nova is built on a core called NovaCore, which uses C for scanners and pattern structures for logic.
- ▪The system features four distinct memory areas: My Diary, Current View, MySpiral, and Knowledge Containers.
- ▪Adrian Hammerle II developed Nova using a combination of Grok, Claude, and local models like Olmo and Qwen Coder Next.
- ▪The project is currently in a development phase with working versions and plans for a future beta program.
- ▪Nova processes human language by converting it into structured symbolic cuneiform motif streams for deterministic cognition.
