myActor is an intelligent notebook that assists you in organizing ideas and facts, gathering health information, planning your work, and optimizing your shopping. As an actor, it can act as a family doctor, providing preventive healthcare and detecting abnormalities, or as a shopping aid for better decision-making and logistics. It also functions as a knowledge organizer, enabling the creation of multidimensional clusters of ideas, or as an integrator for monitoring and optimizing smart home environments. myActor arrange personal data similar to how biological neural networks store interconnected active data. Its empirical purpose is to amplify information and enhance personal intelligence. myActor is built on virtual neural networks and neural programming. Instead of relying on large language models (LLMs), it employs small, expert models meticulously crafted by experts for specific tasks. We call such models personal, and the process of building them is "linguistic mechanics", by analogy with the process of creating mechanical devices. Personal models are very compact, and instead of sending user data to the cloud for analysis and classification, we download these models from libraries to the user's device. This ensures 100% confidentiality of personal data.
