Applied AI Research. On the Water. In the Field.
A focused deployment site for AI systems development, testing, and refinement.
I Talk to Robots. I Give Them Personalities.
- Captain Pierce Alexander Lilholt
Floaty Boat is a privately operated research vessel conducting hands-on development of AI systems—one conversation at a time.
Designed as a real-world testing platform, the vessel is where Pierce Alexander Lilholt interacts directly with artificial intelligence models to refine behavior, personality, and performance under live conditions.
There are no datasets on deck. No annotation teams.
This is instruction-based development, conducted through trial, iteration, and dialogue.
Each session is a test. Each response is a result.
Work aboard Floaty Boat focuses on:
Crafting personality-driven AI agents
Refining instruction sets for conversational alignment
Testing co-intelligence systems for reliability and adaptability
Exploring how AI can support real-world decision-making and execution
This is not a laboratory simulation.
The conditions are real. The constraints are real. The outcomes are operational.
Floaty Boat exists for one purpose:
To make artificial intelligence more human-compatible—one line of instruction at a time.
