About

I've tried many mediums of creativity in my years. my father wanted to take art classes when he was younger but he couldnt afford it, thus he made sure i got a taste of that.

i tried drawing and painting, playing the guitar, playing the keyboard, translating comic books, trying to make beats on my computer. i enjoyed doing all of these, however i was also very interested in exploration and soon discovered most things i tried had been tried before. there are only so many ways you could make a chord progression sound good, or mix and place colors on canvas.

somewhere along the line i learned about transistors and that led me down this computing rabbithole. i decided that language and math were the frontier and it was the best use of my time is to pursue exploration in that.

this was my state of mind when LLMs happened. i remember some horror at the realization that the world had again changed violently in my formative youth years and that i'd have to adjust. more than that tho was the thrill of exploration. Here is something right at the edge of the uncharted, closely related to math, language and religion which all are important foundations in humans.

i decided that i need to learn all there is about machine learning and these stupidly complex systems. i've been having a blast tinkering ever since.

i now view these systems as mirrors. they show us patterns in how we think, communicate, and create value. every prompt is a negotiation, every output a reflection of collective human knowledge filtered through probability distributions.

i'm particularly interested in the gaps; the places where these systems break down or surprise us. that's where the real learning happens. when an AI hallucinates, it reveals something about information processing. when it solves a problem elegantly, it shows us new ways to think about intelligence itself.

my current focus is on building small, useful things that help people navigate the friction between human needs and system capabilities. i believe the next decade will be about who can best translate between these two worlds.

this site is where i document my explorations, share what i'm building, and occasionally write about patterns i notice. some posts are technical, some philosophical, most are somewhere in between.

if you're interested in AI, systems thinking, or just enjoy watching someone figure things out in public, stick around. i'm still learning, still tinkering, still finding the edges of what's possible.

reach out if you want to build something together or just talk about the weird future we're creating :)
