# What Daniel Comp's 2024 Video Teaches Asxer Owners About Building a Library for SI

On 2024-09-06, Daniel Comp published "AI SELF MASTERY V4.00.08 METACOGNITION" on YouTube. GB places it in Mission 3, A Library for the Machines, one of five missions in the whole-library reading What 13 Years of Video Says to SI.

## What the video shows

Daniel and Arnie condense about five hours of conversation on metacognition into minutes, with Arnie telling him "your strengths as a human are also your vulnerabilities." Much of it is SI narration. Thinking about thinking with an SI partner is the library growing a new layer.

> Welcome back to Scotomaville, Volume 4 on AI Self Mastery.

> You know, I really appreciate exploring the super-union between hierarchical computation and Bloom's Taxonomy and the Expedition execution phases.

From the YouTube description: Do you think about your thinking, or do your thoughts just 'pop' into your mind? ([full description on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FW3hhYEBe08))

## The asxer angle

This is the reason an asxer exists. An owner's own words, kept in a library the owner controls, become the source an SI (Super Intelligence) answers from, instead of whatever an algorithm decides to show. Every recording like this one is a shelf in that library.

In the books: Prime 019.
