Essays, analysis, and notes on applied AI, digital assets, investigations, and the systems around them.
- Sep 27, 2026 · AI Context Architecture: Designing AI Systems That Know What to Question A mature AI system knows which rules are fixed, which decisions are provisional, and when review is required. Context architecture makes that explicit.
- Sep 26, 2026 · AI AI Agents Need Exploration Mode and Execution Mode Reliable execution needs stable boundaries. Useful research needs permission to challenge assumptions. One mode for both produces rigidity or risk.
- Sep 25, 2026 · Thoughts The Invisible Box: When AI Optimizes the Wrong System An AI agent can follow instructions perfectly and still move a business the wrong way. The failure may be the decision space humans created, not the model.
- Sep 24, 2026 · AI Guardrails Are Not Assumptions: A Context Hierarchy for AI Agents Security controls, architecture, and product hypotheses should not carry equal authority. A context hierarchy keeps boundaries firm and questions reviewable.
- Sep 23, 2026 · AI AGENTS.md Is Not Just Documentation Persistent agent instructions do more than describe a repository. They shape which options an AI weighs, what it avoids, and what becomes operating policy.
- Sep 22, 2026 · AI Awareness Before Architecture: The Hidden Risk in Agentic Systems Agentic systems can turn a vague idea into infrastructure before anyone tests it. Awareness before architecture stops fast commitment to the wrong thing.
- Aug 4, 2026 · AI If You Still Babysit Every Output, You Do Not Have an Agent Most launches labelled AI agent are chatbots in costume. A real agent is architecture: goals, tools, permissions, memory. Map the workflow, not the label.
- Jul 28, 2026 · AI Guardian Agents: Autonomy Without Oversight Is Just Faster Risk Few firms have shipped AI agents, most plan to. Hallucination rates and breach data agree: autonomy without a second loop is exposure, not scale.
