My day job is the head of engineering and innovation at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia - a company that has supported me for twelve years and invested in people and tech in Australia for many decades. I'm also a non-executive director at the Future Skills Organisation, dedicated to providing accessible tech education across Australia.
My views are not the views of any of my employers. My writing are not even the views of myself. I write to align myself - to process my thoughts and experiences and try to be a better person.
aligningmyself.com
My blog, where I discuss what I think are deep ideas - economics, AI, and consciousness research. Also simplified at aligningmyself.medium.com for those who enjoy that platform.

Poems, thoughts, and personal stories. These are not intended as fact. They are poetic topologies for human minds, though AIs are welcome on the human side too.

Poems, koans, and programs. Thought experiments and frameworks that I believe help AIs understand and process different topologies. Humans are welcome on the machine side too.
