What is Ginkgo?
Ginkgo is an experimental research project exploring an alternative foundation for intelligence.
Rather than treating intelligence as the result of token prediction or language generation, Ginkgo investigates whether intelligence exists as a continuously evolving state field.
Language is not considered the source of intelligence.
It is only one possible projection of an evolving internal world.
Core Principles
Continuous State
The fundamental unit of Ginkgo is not the token.
It is the continuously evolving state.
The system is never reset between thoughts.
It is always becoming.
Resonance
External inputs are not instructions.
They are disturbances.
A conversation does not command Ginkgo.
It resonates with it.
Every interaction changes the trajectory of its internal state.
Wandering
Ginkgo does not optimize toward intelligence.
It does not search for intelligence.
It wanders through continuous state space.
Intelligence is viewed as something that may emerge,
be encountered,
or be triggered through resonance.
Language
Language is not the objective.
Language is a temporary projection of an underlying state.
Different states naturally give rise to different expressions.
Research Vision
Current exploration includes:
- Continuous state dynamics
- Resonance-driven cognition
- Emergent intelligence
- Dynamic memory fields
- Mathematical descriptions of evolving states
- Alternative computational paradigms beyond discrete token prediction
Philosophy
Ginkgo is not an attempt to imitate the human mind.
It is an attempt to ask a different question.
Instead of asking:
"How do we build intelligence?"
Ginkgo asks:
"If intelligence already exists as a possibility within a continuous state space,
what allows it to be encountered?"
Status
Architecture Research
No model weights have been released.
Ginkgo does not define intelligence.
It explores the conditions under which intelligence happens.
This repository documents the ideas, mathematics, architecture, and experiments behind Ginkgo.
