I view the world as a single, interconnected whole. This structure encompasses every layer of our reality—from physical laws and biological drives to moral frameworks. I spend most of my time trying to optimize the parts of it that drive the outcomes I value most.
What I do:
I run Arachnida Apps, a software studio where I leverage AI to build tools and infrastructure. It is the engine that powers my long-term goal: Kendara, an initiative to research human motivation and build a world where everyone thrives.

We have already discussed the widespread myth that technology will lead us to overcome any obstacle. We see it with the climate challenge: there is this thing called Carbon Capture and Sequestration. Despite the irrefutable fact that it is cheaper, quicker and easier to reduce energy consumption, the tendency is to look for the technological solution that will allow us to do what we can no longer do without causing serious damage. It is a total fantasy. The best we can say about CCS is that it is an idea that is going to make a few people a lot of money.
