Luffy AI develops adaptive neural controllers that learn the physics of a system from first principles and adapt autonomously in real time. They use sparse, lightweight neural networks, grown not built, using algorithms that mimic nature with neuroplastic synapses that allow adaptation. An important distinction with Luffy AI’s technology is that the networks adapt in real-time and don’t learn in real-time like edge-learning networks. Luffy AI controllers learn adaptive behaviours in training and don’t change their structure when deployed, meaning that resetting a Luffy AI ANC results in the same controller and behaviour every time.
