In her video she says she was the architect and her friend Ben was the engineer. To me that reads as “I came up with an idea and told my friend who did all the heavy lifting to make it work. Then we realized that in our current culture no one would listen without a recognizable face attached to it, so I’m telling you about it now.”

Also, why is instagram showing the video as posted by her and a dude who seems to do videos warning people about scams? It’s been forever since I’ve been on IG and I couldn’t get much farther than that without logging in.

    This seems like the most likely explanation.

    The “memory palace” (AKA method of loci) is a plausible inspiration for someone with a non-technical background, and there’s evidence that it’s closer to how the brain actually indexes memories natively. (Although my understanding is that it bootstraps the hippocampus’s hard-wired ability to remember the layout of physical locations—I don’t know that an LLM would have a similar ability out of the box.)
