It would be easy to share technical papers or abstract theories. Instead, I thought I'd share something more valuable—the experiences and ideas that keep me up at night, the questions that drive everything we're building.

Thoughts

INFLECTIONS: The Moments That Shaped Everything

The Stimuli Problem

How my grandfathers taught me that human potential is everywhere—it just needs the right spark at the right moment. Why democratizing those sparks might be AI's greatest purpose.

Reading Aloud in a Silent World

What my mother's library taught me about the irreplaceable magic of slow, immersive learning. Why AI should amplify human connection, not optimize it away.

The Day I Understood Scale

The expensive lesson from almost losing Golmaal to "the river effect." Why consumer products can't iterate their way to success—they need conviction from day one.

THE FUTURE WE'RE BUILDING

The Last Human Job

Why there won't be one. When AI handles necessity, humans will finally discover what we're really for: being beautifully, irrationally, boundlessly human.

The Labs and Their Positioning

The AI labs are building critical infrastructure for humanity—but who's building the bridge to actual human needs? On symbiosis, token economies, and why we need both capability and empathy.

The Empathy Machine

The next breakthrough in AI won't be superintelligence—it'll be technology that finally understands what you really meant to say. On building AI that gets the layers beneath our words.

FORM FACTORS OF THE FUTURE

Beyond the Black Rectangle

We've perfected screens for fifty years. The next leap isn't a better rectangle—it's intelligence that shares our physical space and adapts to us, not the reverse.

THE MEANING QUESTION

Will Life Lose Meaning After AGI?

The question everyone's afraid to ask, explored through gardens, marathons, and birthday songs. Why AGI won't drain meaning from life—it'll finally let us discover what meaning really is.
