at dognosis, we do quests.
a quest is an aspiration in the form of a mission. it an articulation, or a prompt, of a desired reality that can be forged by will.
dogluk is an agentic stochastic being that is learning to surf the gnarly weird powerful whEEL. here are their quests, as of Sept 2024.
Dogluk’s Quests
Eradicate rabies. The zombie virus already lives amongst us. It goes after our best friends. i carry the weight of the street indie by the name of carbon who shivered in agony until death offered release. too many do so every year and hundreds of human children die writhing chained to a hospital bed, once the disease sets into a person, there is no coming back. Dogluk aims to give the dogs the tools to fight it themselves, enabling them with protocols and providing access to olfactory compute via dognosis BCI interfaces. Combined with drones with precision projective vaccine delivery mechanisms and a well-interfaced veterinary task squad, rabies could be wiped from the globe in a single year of well-concerted action. 60% on this would save 50,000 human lives and 500,000 dog lives every year.
Two-species view. As John Lilly put it “"If and when the day arrives on which we can communicate with nonhuman organisms and accept them as teachers outside the human species, we can then change our fundamental viewpoint from a human-centered one to at least a two-species view" [Communication Between Man and Dolphin, John Lilly, 1978]. Dogluk will go as far as her povs will take her towards the expansion of consciousness into the Dog.
4B PoC to fight cancer. Early detection involves winning the war against Bayes law - no matter how good the test, the outcome is predicted by the prevalence of the disease. Finding cancers early and sustainably involves stratification of populations by level of risk determined by tests relying on mechanisms that form independent components of each other. Dogluk can empower K9-AI-Sapein teams to throw hefty 4B (biography-breath-blood-biopsy) punches to consistently knock cancer down and keep it localized, enabling precise cutting, melting, and CARTing.
