Grâce à un accord passé avec la société Mistral AI, le CNRS s’est doté d’un agent conversationnel sécurisé en intelligence artificielle générative, avec des modèles à la pointe de la recherche en IA générative. Cet agent est baptisé Emmy, en référence à la mathématicienne Emmy Noether.

Cet agent aura certainement des réponses sur les sujets les plus pointus, car l'agent ne tait rien.

"Because people have varying needs across disparate contexts from assorted expectations with unequal skill levels using almost random technologies, never mind current moods and real-life distractions, to suggest one thing will be accessible for everyone in all those circumstances is pure hubris. Or lack of empathy. Maybe a mix."

Bottom line being we can't win them all, but we can do our best to enable as many people as possible.

I've said a lot, there's more that can be said, but instead I'll switch to the ask.

Does the above resonate with you? @spritelyThe Spritely Institute could really, truly use your help.

Consider donating. I promise we'll put it to good use. https://spritely.institute/donate/

Let's build a better internet! 💜

Earlier I mentioned that fun and joy are actually very important. Indeed, the success of *all* social networks, and indeed, almost every kind of tech, has been rooted in people having joyful, often shared, experiences together.

Joy is part of resistance. And joy is part of our tech.

But what does it mean for systems to be social? Here's something you can't do on either ActivityPub or ATProto, but is a demo we built with Goblins and OCapN: a collaborative farming game! https://spritely.institute/news/goblinville-a-spring-lisp-game-jam-2025-retrospective.html

We also have another mini demo coming out soon. It's not our main focus, but @tsyesikaJessica Tallon has been working on a mini demo of an ActivityPub server built on top of Goblins. (Someone with money wanna fund this? :P)

That's a teaser, some blogposts coming out soon (but again, not our main focus until we can get funding for it)

And we're still building key infrastructure. Goblins recently got a major upgrade to its persistence system: https://spritely.institute/news/spritely-goblins-v0-17-0-persistence-is-better-than-ever.html

And it's about to get another one. Not really yet announced, but we're working on a hot-cache system that loads actors from store on demand. It's neat!

There's more... we've been busy!

GoblinShare: Secure, Peer-to-Peer File-Sharing with Goblins https://spritely.institute/news/goblinshare-secure-peer-to-peer-file-sharing-with-goblins.html

Shepherd × Goblins update https://spritely.institute/news/shepherd-goblins-update.html

Honestly our blog is full of interesting details of stuff we're doing! https://spritely.institute/news/

​​​​​​

We also recently put out a blogpost and demo of a chat system that *nobody* centrally hosts called "Brassica Chat" https://spritely.institute/news/composing-capability-security-and-conflict-free-replicated-data-types.html

Again, it's a demo, but you can try on it on the page. It combines capability security with cool concepts called CRDTs.

But more importantly, it's a step towards secure communication for a hostile world.

It's the year of dogfooding and Spritely has been using its own tech *every day* this year with a project called Pumpkin Chat https://codeberg.org/spritely/pumpkin-chat/

Alas, it's what's called "dogfood". Not fit for human consumption. But it's possible to use this tech every day, and we are. We're working on getting it out to others too.

These games are fun and great at showing off ideas of otherwise hard-to-explain concepts. And more, in a moment, why fun and joy aren't small matters.

But... is it all just fun and games? What about actual everyday tangible use?

We're getting close to that point. Here's what we've been up to.

We're big believers in having tangible examples of tech so people can understand and it's not just vaporware. Sometimes that's challenging to do with low-level tech in development. But games are a great way to show things off!

Unusually, Spritely has a whole arcade page! https://spritely.institute/arcade/

We're building cool tech:
- Goblins, p2p distributed programming: https://spritely.institute/goblins/
- Hoot, a WebAssembly toolkit (and Scheme->WASM compiler) https://spritely.institute/hoot/
- OCapN, a secure distributed p2p networked protocol https://ocapn.org/

But... what are we *doing* with these things?

FreeBSD 15.0 Now Available

The FreeBSD Project has announced the availability of FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE, introducing updated toolchains, enhanced hardware support, improved security features, and key updates across the base system. This release continues the Project’s focus on stability, long-term maintainability, and consistent engineering.

We encourage you to review the release notes and upgrade guidance

User-empowering technology is a lot of work, corporations aren't motivated to build it. We need research and development of new tech that changes the game from an org that isn't bound by pushing profit.

And that's why @spritelyThe Spritely Institute is a nonprofit research lab.

So... what are we doing?

I love computers. When people say "Computers were a mistake!" it makes me sad.

But it's had to blame people. The direction computers have gone in, the experience people largely have had, is a loss of agency and empowerment.

How do we bring that back, and do better than ever even?

What can we do? Is there hope? Is it possible to build something better?

Spritely was born out of this work, and the strive to create infrastructure allowing for "Networks of Consent". More on that here: https://spui25.nl/programma/we-can-change-the-defaults-building-networks-of-consent-and-spaces-of-joy-in-the-ruins-of-social-media

I gave a talk on this recently: "Protocols and Purpose in a Global Democratic Crisis" https://c-tube.c-base.org/w/f9pF5pwxX8mVkmW2i3dU1M

*None* of the decentralized social networks today are robust enough to handle the threats facing vulnerable people and activists today. Not the present-day fediverse, not Bluesky/ATProto. What can we do?

@spritelyThe Spritely Institute is developing some damn cool tech: Distributed programming! Leading the way on a secure P2P protocol (OCapN)! A WebAssembly toolkit!

But: is "cool tech" what matters? *Why* are we trying to make cool tech? What are the *social implications* of making this technology?

For this #GivingTuesday I'm going to make the (biased) argument for why you might consider donating to @spritelyThe Spritely Institute, especially if you care about a healthier future for the internet! https://spritely.institute/donate/

Here's a little thread explaining more... 🧵

App: Click to update!

Me: Uh, I dunno. I'm nervous.

App: Click to update!

Me: Why? You haven't given me a good reason.

App: Click to update!

Me: But what if you change something that I like the way it is? Can't I just not?

App: Click to update!

Me: OK, OK. Fine. *click*

App: Sucker!!!

I work at @freedomofpressFreedom of the Press and I'm told it's some sort of holiday for donating to nonprofits. Some holidays are shams but, as someone very biased, I think Giving Tuesday is totally legitimate and an exception.

My team supports journalists with their digital security needs, including protecting their devices and communicating securely with sources. In 2025, I really do think this matters more than ever. If this is something you care about, support our work. https://freedom.press/donate
