I build AI agents, cognitive architectures, and little weird things, then write about what breaks along the way. This site is a long term archive for experiments, essays on the intersections of AI, philosophy & consciousness, and project devlogs. Blogs are generally written in a lighter tone, essays not so much.
Portfolio
Collection of project pages, experiments, and implementation-focused work
- Orielle: An AI gameplay agent for Caves of Qud that reads game logs, will reason about state, and play along to try and reach the end goal
- xenolab: A prototype terminal research roguelike in Rust that generates a deterministic causal micro-ecosystem from a seed, lets you intervene in that world, and records replayable run events with deterministic hashing for verification
- pieBot: A local‑first, Rust‑authoritative agent execution substrate. Models are untrusted compute accelerators; the Rust control plane owns state, policy, tools, audit, and artifacts. The system is the agent
