Orch OR, LLMs, and the Question of Machine Consciousness
Published:
In 1989, Roger Penrose published The Emperor’s New Mind, a book with an uncomfortable thesis: no classical computer, no matter how sophisticated, can ever be conscious. The argument was not a matter of engineering difficulty. It was a matter of physics. A sufficiently fundamental theory of consciousness, Penrose argued, requires going below the level of computation entirely — down to quantum gravity.

Local Cloud Development with Floci and Terraform
Published:
Infrastructure-as-code has a feedback loop problem. You write a Terraform module, push it, wait for CI, watch it fail against a real cloud account, fix it, repeat. Each iteration costs time and sometimes money.

Notes on Mean Field Game Theory
Published:
Informal notes on MFG as a framework for modeling large populations of strategic agents and why it matters for thinking about financial markets.
Notes on Synaptic Pruning
Published:
LLMs have been scaling exponentially in parameter count. The human brain does something smarter: it prunes. Notes on whether the neuroscience concept of synaptic pruning points toward a better path for AI.
