PSI: Shared State as the Missing Layer for Coherent AI-Generated Instruments in Personal AI Agents

Zhiyuan Wang, Erzhen Hu, Mark Rucker +1

Personal AI tools can now be generated from natural-language requests, but they often remain isolated after creation. We present PSI, a shared-state architecture that turns indepen…
