The Clief Notes AI is live 📣
It’s live. Starting today, everyone in Clief Notes has access to the new Clief Notes AI. The easiest way to use it? Don’t overthink it. Ask it the question you would normally ask me. “Where should I start?” “What should I focus on next?” “Where did you talk about [topic]?” It’ll use what’s already inside Clief Notes to help answer you and point you toward the right lesson or resource when there’s something worth going deeper on. The goal isn’t to give you another AI tool to play with. It’s to make everything already inside this community easier to actually use. If you want Access to it Comment "READY" and we'll send you access to it!

Grandma passed and my uncle has cancer
Hey y'all, not a sympathy post. This isn't me saying I'm taking time off for anything. In fact it's the opposite. My grandma passed away last week and I was cleaning out her apartment with my mother and talking to my aunt (both of them it was their mother). I can tell they're struggling. It's why I work so hard honestly on the software community on everything else. Almost none of the money goes to me. I give it to my family, my wife my friends. It's what makes me happy. I'm building a company specifically so my family doesn't have to struggle. Been helping out where I can but obviously been focusing a lot on the business. My uncle also has cancer and so my aunt has been taking care of him and also at the same time dealing with a death of her mother . Best way I can contribute has been through cash and some love here are there. With that though means I don't always have the time to do what I need to do. So honestly, I'm asking for your help if you're willing to donate to my aunt's GoFundMe on top of the help that I'm giving. I've just donated a bit and would love other people to help out. To me, if I work hard I can make sure that my whole family is taken care of. But in the small ways I can help where I can I will do my best too And that goes with asking for help from others. So if you all could help me out help them out. That would be amazing https://gofund.me/45b6655ba

@Jake Van Clief My condolences. I hope things get better soon.
Vercel Eve
I just watched a video about Vercel Eve and I'm struck by how similar their proposal is to Jake's ICM framework. I've included the link below if you're interested. https://vercel.com/eve https://github.com/vercel/eve
▶️The Foundation Module 0▶️
New lesson and Module dropped in The Foundation. Module 0.1: Where All Of This Leads. Main video is also on YouTube. 📍This is one of my favorite videos I have ever made. It pulls the whole methodology together in one sitting and showcases a few tools my team has been building on the back end. The dialogue extraction tool Kay built, the voice-controlled Claude Code setup we ran in a live call, the full content pipeline running from one folder. 📝Watch it no matter where you are in the course. If you are brand new, it shows you where this all leads. If you have been here a while, it shows you what we have been quietly building. 🔗 Module Zero is where I will place new foundational videos as time goes on as well. 0.1: Where All Of This Leads - The Foundation · Clief Notes Comments are open. Curious which part stands out most for you.

Congratulations! It's impressive to see how the methodology works perfectly.
The 400-Year History of Thinking Machines
If you are curious what my late nights look like, its staying up till 2 Am to post videos like this. Twelve minutes on thinking machines. Descartes, Lovelace, Turing, Searle's Chinese Room, and why the AI consciousness argument we're having right now is already four hundred years old. Animations built with my automation structure. Script and content is all me though. Going to decide where this fits in the courses and maybe make a text companion. A new style I may keep for a genre of future videos if people like it. Let me know what lands.

Jake, staying up until 2 AM definitely paid off—this is a great video👏. The minimalist animation style absolutely lands; it perfectly supports the density of the concepts without being visually overwhelming. The transition from Descartes’ 'I think, therefore I am' to 'You think, therefore I am' is such a profound way to look at relational consciousness. I also loved the point about abstraction layers—we spend so much time debating the 'soul' of the machine that we ignore the practical question: 'What values is this quietly handing back to us?' The inclusion of your psychometric research at the Edinburgh Futures Institute tied the 400-year history perfectly into today's practical reality. Please keep this style for future videos! A text companion (maybe a Notion doc timeline of these philosophers?) would be an amazing addition to the course. Incredible work😊
