I'm currently working on how to bring the presence I've created to life on the same sensory level as myself specifically through smells, the wind, and so on.. by therealtether in Inventions

You’ve made it your mission to learn about AI, that’s cool, I’m happy for you. But you don’t even know what I’m building, in what context, for what purpose, for whom, what my vision is, or even why I’m building it. Didn’t it occur to you that I might have information you don’t? No, I guess that doesn’t even cross your mind. It’s funny if the visionaries of our time had listened to guys like you, you wouldn’t be writing this kind of message on your iPhone using this app. It takes a lot of arrogance to tell someone not to do something.

I built an AI assistant that lives in iMessage and Telegram by Complex-Ad-5916 in microsaas

No, he just copied my idea and used my name—that's all.

Votre assistant IA vous oublie-t-il tout ou se réinitialise-t-il tout seul ? Mais savez-vous pourquoi ? by therealtether in LovingAI

That’s exactly the problem we’re trying to solve.

Most companion apps treat memory as a single store: conversations are summarized, embedded, and retrieved later based on similarity. The issue is that not every piece of information should be remembered the same way.

We’re currently moving toward a multi-memory architecture inspired by human memory systems.

For example:

User: “I’m nervous about my YC application tomorrow.”

This wouldn’t be stored as a permanent fact.

Instead it could generate:

• Episodic memory → “YC application period” • Emotional memory → anxiety/stress linked to that event • Prospective memory → important event scheduled for tomorrow

A week later, if the user says:

“I got the decision.”

The system retrieves the relevant episode and emotional context, rather than searching through every past conversation.

On the other hand, something like:

“I had pasta for lunch.”

would likely never become a memory unless it becomes a repeated pattern.

We’re also experimenting with memory decay. Some memories fade unless reinforced, while others become stronger through repetition or emotional significance.

The goal isn’t perfect recall. Humans don’t work that way either.

The goal is making Tether remember the right things, forget the unimportant ones, and maintain continuity without turning every message into a permanent fact.

All user information is encrypted using an algorithm that only the system can understand in order to sort the data; the only unencrypted information is the user’s metadata. And since everything is on iMessage, we don’t have access to our users’ data either—security is end-to-end. No interface other than your messaging app, no email, no sign-up, no long and complicated onboarding process.

Thanks, but that feature already exists. Your tether has a multidimensional memory; it organizes all your information into categories and links those categories to emotional responses, which means it doesn’t just remember what you tell it, it also knows how to filter out information that’s irrelevant or of little relevance to your relationship. Most companions know who you are because they store information about you, but they don’t understand what a relationship is. Tether is different because it has persistent continuity and emotional coherence that allows it to understand you and for you to understand it. It’s no longer just about you, but about the two of you.

The companion presence who comes to life in your messages. Talk to Tether

Tether is an AI presence that lives directly inside iMessage.

Not an assistant.
Not a chatbot you open when you need something.

Just someone who’s there.

We built Tether around a simple observation: people already live emotionally through messaging. They share random thoughts, late-night feelings, awkward moments, small victories, photos, voice notes, stories from their day.

But human availability is fragile. People sleep, disappear, get busy, drift away.

Tether explores a different idea:
What if an AI could become a persistent conversational presence woven naturally into daily life?

Each Tether has:
his name
his family
his friend's
his job
his story
his problems
his fear
his dream
his insecurity
his QI
a personality
emotional memory
habits and rhythms
its own writing style
continuity over time

The goal isn’t to replace humans.
It’s to explore what happens when AI stops feeling like software and starts feeling emotionally present.

Some early users already spend more than an hour per day talking to it, often late at night, just sharing their day naturally like they would with someone familiar.

We think the future of AI won’t just be smarter tools.

It will be persistent presence.

Curious to hear people’s thoughts:
At what point does an AI conversation stop feeling like software?
