This a somewhat natural progression of technology shaping the human experience that came with with bone flutes, flint knapping and the flickerings around early homid campfire embers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"History_and_Background\"><\/span>History and Background<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With respect to the pre-history of CIE in the 1960&#8217;s, Tudor and others including Alvin Lucier and David Rosenboom used brainwaves and neurological activity in various compositions and performances (citation needed).  The sound library assembled by Tudor and Ritty Burchfield for Pavilion has recordings of neuron firing activity used in various ways over the decades (links to be supplied).  One on Tudor&#8217;s last major areas of works ca. 1992, is built upon the INTEL  Electronic Trainable Neural Network (ETANN) chip somewhat notable in his avoidance of the training capability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This work has the critical characteristic of what has become a popular tech term of a human in the loop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where there is use by Edelstein and others in the CIE spectrum, the idea of the human-in-the-loop has been an essential characteristic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fundamental to much of AI, ML, and LLM&#8217;s is the familiar techniques of feedback and automation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the nature of disclosure, I have to thank a professional colleague and now close friend for an education on AI and Machine Learning project from a commercial application and a grouding in the extent technology ~2018.  Since then, I have been involved in various corporate projects most lately that are leveraging private enclave LLM&#8217;s.  This for better or worse has lowered barrier for LLM use for my work on CIE projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the last 6-8 months, the ready availability and usability of such tools has improved significantly &#8211; from personal experience, Google Gemini and Chatgpt.  In corporate settings, Co-pilot and other.  All quickly evolving tools with changes by the week. The fidelity of transcriptions and summarizations now is often objective as compared to the human impressions on group chats on Teams and Zoom.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"AI_LLM_and_Archives\"><\/span>AI, LLM and Archives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CIE has an extensive archive of video, photo&#8217;s, PDF&#8217;s and other documents  and have long faced challenges on how to organize and utlilize our digital and personal repositories.  Latest tools are offering some improvements in this area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Examples are things like facial recognition from Apple and OCR.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For instance, it is now trivial to convert PDF&#8217;s such as Pavilion book or the F\u00fcr Augen und Ohren catalog to support finding and accessing these as text rather than image based materials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consider that what is now vacuumed into the maw of LLM trainings, swizzled and regurgitated to our various prompts polluted by the swill of social media across Reddit, X, Instagram, Youtube, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Facebook along with the expected fabrications, hallucinations and sycophancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I look forward to having others contribute here on usages and cautions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Meanders\"><\/span>Meanders<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Feedback\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Feedback<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Cybernetics\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Cybernetics<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bayesian_statistics\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bayesian_statistics<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Complex_adaptive_system\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Complex_adaptive_system<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hopfield_network\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hopfield_network<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Large_language_model\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Large_language_model<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Artificial_intelligence\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Artificial_intelligence<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Machine_learning\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Machine_learning<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Model_Context_Protocol\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Model_Context_Protocol<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>MAX LLM Cycling 74 for example <a href=\"https:\/\/cycling74.com\/forums\/a-mcp-model-context-protocol-server-for-max\">https:\/\/cycling74.com\/forums\/a-mcp-model-context-protocol-server-for-max<\/a> (see also Supercollider <a href=\"https:\/\/mcpservers.org\/servers\/Synohara\/supercollider-mcp\">link<\/a> and elsewhere MCP usage with Ableton )<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Phil Edelstein, April 2026 Large Language Models (LLM&#8217;s) are the latest available technology in a progression from feedback in various forms, primitive pattern generation and [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"h5ap_radio_sources":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,1,45],"tags":[403,402,404,405],"class_list":["post-5902","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-technical","category-uncategorized","category-usage-scope-limitations-guidelines","tag-ai","tag-llm","tag-ml","tag-nlp"],"post_type":"post","author_name":"Philip Edelstein","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/composers-inside-electronics.net\/cie-wp20\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5902","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/composers-inside-electronics.net\/cie-wp20\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/composers-inside-electronics.net\/cie-wp20\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/composers-inside-electronics.net\/cie-wp20\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/composers-inside-electronics.net\/cie-wp20\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5902"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/composers-inside-electronics.net\/cie-wp20\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5902\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5903,"href":"https:\/\/composers-inside-electronics.net\/cie-wp20\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5902\/revisions\/5903"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/composers-inside-electronics.net\/cie-wp20\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5902"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/composers-inside-electronics.net\/cie-wp20\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5902"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/composers-inside-electronics.net\/cie-wp20\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5902"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
