With PAI we have been doing Harness Engineering and Loop Engineering since July of 2025.
All that blabbering you heard me spewing about:
- Context is the most important thing
- You need to start with your Problems, Goals, Strategies, Projects, and Challenges etc (TELOS)
- It’s the harness not the model
- AI is about continuously pursuing Ideal State
- The Algorithm is for General Hill Climbing (making anything verifiable)
- And the PAIMM defining what we’re all chasing for AI
Well that’s what everyone is about to converge on.
This whole “loop engineering” thing is literally mapping goals so your AI can continuously move from current to ideal state.
Think of your harness as your LifeOS, not a coding tool.
The irony is that my coding projects are orders of magnitude better and faster because they operate inside my harness that has all this context.
You don’t need to use PAI.
But please start thinking of your harness as a holistic system for understanding, managing, and improving your life and work.
That’s where this stuff has always been heading.
