I built a multi-tiered symbolic logic engine. By layering geometric search, topological reasoning, and strict cross-validation, it decodes complex spatial relationships. It doesn't just recognize patterns—it mathematically proves its logic. No LLM needed

These individual primitives can be composed into complex chains, allowing the system to solve logic puzzles with high reliability.
This method creates specialized algorithmic modules that perform specific grid transformations, such as rotating or cropping, with mathematical precision.
Instead of using gradient descent or training data, the system analytically converts C code into transformer model weights through a process involving WebAssembly and Futamura projection.
By learning fluidly during a task instead of relying on pre-training, the framework demonstrates a more human-like approach to solving novel puzzles.
The system utilizes a zero-parameter architecture that runs on basic hardware, employing techniques like graph exploration and real-time strategy adaptation rather than massive neural networks.
While multibillion-dollar large language models failed because they rely on pattern memorization, Agent Zero achieved a superior score by treating intelligence as a systematic search problem.
The fact that every frontier model scores under 1% while a systematic exploration agent on a laptop scores 12% tells you something important about the difference between intelligence and pattern matching.
The ARC-AGI-3 games are video-game-like environments with hidden rules. No instructions. No hints. The agent gets dropped in and has to figure out what to do — just like a human would.
→ Cross-level memory carries knowledge forward
→ Winning solutions replay instantly on retry
→ Everything runs on a consumer CPU. No cloud. No API. No subscription.
Every failure becomes a tool. Every tool is forever. The system gets smarter every time it runs.
The architecture:
→ Pattern detection catches the easy ones instantly
→ Graph-based exploration discovers game rules through interaction
Humans score 100%. GPT-5 scores 0.26%. Claude scores 0.25%. My agent on a 4-core i7 is at 12.1%, matching the 3rd place solution from the preview competition.
The secret? The AI doesn't guess. It explores, discovers rules, and **compiles exact solutions permanently**.
Here's what happened in the last 48 hours:
🧩 **ARC-AGI-1: 400/400 (100%)** — Every single puzzle solved. This is the benchmark that started at 20% in 2020 and took the entire AI community 4 years to crack.
🎮 **ARC-AGI-3: 12.1% and climbing** —This is the NEW benchmark that just launched 3 days ago.
This approach enables a self-improving "Project Olympus" capable of hosting domain-specific specialists and zero-cost document search without any reliance on expensive GPUs or cloud APIs.

Its specialized components use ternary quantization, which compresses models significantly and replaces complex floating-point math with simple integer additions.
H4 Polytopic Attention: Geometric CPU-Native Modular AI
The h4-polytopic-attention project is a modular AI system engineered to run high-performance language models and retrieval tasks exclusively on standard CPU hardware.
The project replaces a single massive model with six specialized small models that utilize geometric knowledge index for fast, accurate information retrieval. Legally clean, open-source data, advanced compression techniques, system ensures user privacy and independence from cloud-based providers.
No GPU. No API dependency. No monthly cost. No legal risk.
The Core Insight
Claude Opus is one giant model that memorizes everything in its weights.
We build many small specialists that know their domain deeply and retrieve
everything else from a geometric knowledge index.
The model employs ternary weights for massive compression and features a unified RAG system where retrieval and generation share the same geometric framework.
By utilizing the 600-cell H4 polytope and the E8 lattice, the system achieves logarithmic query complexity, effectively bypassing the high computational costs of traditional attention.
By running these geometric simulations, researchers could identify the exact "geometric glitch" that causes a cancer cell to stop following the body’s structural plan.

4. Morphogenetic Modeling (Medicine)
The Golden Ratio is the blueprint for biological growth (phyllotaxis). This code can simulate how cells organize during embryo development or tumor growth.
This would allow powerful AIs to run locally on medical devices in remote areas without internet or massive power grids.
3. Hyper-Efficient "Edge" Computing
Because the H4 symmetry naturally "compresses" information into the most efficient packing possible (the densest way to store points in 4D space), these models could potentially achieve GPT-4 level reasoning while using 90% less electricity.
This could make AI safe enough for autonomous surgery or nuclear reactor management, where we need 100% certainty in the logic.
2. Solving "Black Box" Interpretability
Currently, we don't know why an AI makes a decision. In this H4 model, every "thought" is a geometric path through a polytope. We can literally see which vertex of the 600-cell a concept is mapped to.
Because this model is a crystal (mathematically), it can predict how new materials—like room-temperature superconductors or high-efficiency batteries—will behave. It "speaks the language" of the E8 lattice, which governs the subatomic world.
* Uses the Golden Ratio (\phi) as a Gate: It uses \phi \approx 1.618 to calculate the "angular distance" between tokens. If two tokens don't align with the symmetry of the polytope, their attention weight is suppressed.
Instead of the "flat" linear transformations found in a standard Transformer, this code:
* Maps Inputs to the 600-Cell: It takes input embeddings and projects them onto the 120 vertices of the H4 polychoron (the 600-cell).
The framework relies on specific selection rules rooted in invariant theory and perturbative convergence to determine which geometric exponents appear in its calculations. Statistically, the model matches 57 of 58 experimental constants with high precision, median deviation of less than 300 ppm.
