Explorations Across Fields

Thought experiments in AI policy, physics and beyond. Each project starts from a question, follows it carefully to its conclusions, and is published openly with a permanent DOI.

Selected Works

A slide from the project: one shared start splits into two pathways, a tool that slips away and a creature that grows up, each crossing a threshold at stage three.

What Co-location Can and Cannot Explain

Two entangled particles that fly apart in the laboratory can be given coordinates in which they never separate. The paper proves what that explains, and exactly where it stops.
