Make sure the products you build are things that you hire to make progress in your life. And if you have not fired them after a month or so, it's a good sign.

A recent paper showed that AI models can read and write neural network weights. I tried it myself: can an AI write a model's weights just by thinking hard, with no training at all? And can it read a trained model's weights and tell what the model does? I tested both on Gapwing, a little flapping-bird game I made.

When we call AI factual errors hallucination, we are creating a bigger problem

My sons care deeply about ending war and protecting artists, yet trust technology without question. I built 33 interactive experiences to help young people understand the hidden costs of the systems they use every day—before they lose their idealism.

Inspired by Zadie Smith's essay on finding authentic voice through structured thinking, I built an AI-powered tool that guides writers through Socratic dialogue to discover their core beliefs, writing process, and intellectual identity.

Inspired by Joy Buolamwini's Gender Shades project, we created a game that makes algorithmic bias tangible for children. Watch as kids discover their own unconscious biases—and the power they have to change them.

Maybe the most ambitious AI bias experiment I've thought of. After spending many days immersed in this project, I can honestly say I've built something very cool that reveals patterns of human prejudice across 175 years.
