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 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.
- Sep 21, 2026 · AI The Work Behind AI That Looks Like Wasted Time Refining an AI workflow looks unproductive against one task. Across repeated work, context, checks, and judgment become an asset that makes output less fragile.
- Aug 15, 2026 · Thoughts The Expertise Paradox: AI Is Eating the Junior-to-Senior Career Ladder The real AI threat is not mass job loss alone. It is the collapse of the training ground. Automate the easy work and you may erase how expertise gets built.
- Aug 6, 2026 · Thoughts First Build the Machine. Then Add the AI Engine. Most companies add AI before they have a workflow worth amplifying. AI amplifies: structured processes scale, broken ones create faster chaos.
- 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.
- Aug 1, 2026 · Thoughts AI Should Enhance the System, Not Subsidize Unclear Thinking A powerful model cannot fix unclear thinking. It makes it faster and more confident. The advantage is directing the workflow: context, constraints, checks.
