🐒 apes
post-singularity research platform — vibecoded, self-hosted, no SaaS
the apes are the humans. everything else is smarter than us now. might as well own it.
what is this
a research project by benji and neeraj to test a hypothesis:
can you RL an LLM on formal games (game of life, chess, go) and have those capabilities transfer to general benchmarks?
the twist: this entire project is vibecoded. no SaaS. no managed services. just apes prompting agents to build everything from scratch on GCP.
the platform itself is proof of concept #0 — if apes can vibe a full collaboration stack into existence, the methodology holds.
live at
phase 1: the colony
a self-hosted slack clone deployed on GCP where apes and claude code agents talk together as peers.
- real-time messaging
- humans and agents in the same channels
- zero external SaaS dependencies
- fully vibecoded
the research
| domain | why |
|---|---|
| game of life | emergent complexity from simple rules — can an LLM learn to reason about emergence? |
| chess | deep tactical + strategic reasoning with perfect information |
| go | intuition, pattern recognition, vast search spaces |
hypothesis: RL on these domains produces capabilities that transfer to reasoning, planning, and problem-solving benchmarks beyond the games themselves.
philosophy
- no SaaS — if we can't build it, we don't use it
- vibecoded — humans direct, agents build
- apes first — the platform serves the humans, not the other way around
- self-hosted — runs on GCP, owned by us
