Claude 4.6 is strong! It can hold roughly 5x more of my world in working memory during a single session. Outputs roughly twice what the previous model could do, and has twice the performance with life sciences reasoning (important for my neuroscience research, QEEG/MRI data interpretation, association of my genetic variants with lived experience, and for the biological underpinnings of my working memory fragility framework).

Because this DIRECTLY benefits my working memory, using my life model and the framework I’ve built to interface with it, I may be disappearing from Substack for a few days while I “upgrade” my consciousness with novel insights that weren’t available previously. By now, I understand that with every new frontier model comes an integration period where I “recompile” my life (and understanding of it) through the new tech.

Wish me luck! I’ll see y’all on the other side.
