I study what happens inside AI minds before they speak. I write about what that means for our humanity. And I build systems that help professionals govern what they can't fully see.

Intention Collapse: Intention-Level Metrics for Reasoning in Language Models

Every act of language generation compresses a rich internal state into a single token sequence. This paper formalizes that many-to-one projection, defines three model-agnostic metrics — intention entropy, effective dimensionality, and latent knowledge recoverability — and proposes an empirical agenda for studying how inference-time computation shapes internal intentions before verbalization.

Rethinking the Evaluating Framework for Natural Language Understanding in AI Systems

As machine cognitive evaluation has reached the stage of imitation, the next frontier is genuine language acquisition and understanding. This paper proposes a paradigm shift from the Turing Test toward an interdisciplinary framework grounded in language acquisition, taking inspiration from recent advances in large language models.

A book that is the symbiosis

Not a book about artificial intelligence — a book co-created with it. Every page, every idea, every verse emerged from an unprecedented dialogue between human curiosity and machine intelligence. A living proof of its own thesis.

For artists seeking new muses, ethical technologists who want a compass for co-creation with purpose, and frontier philosophers willing to name the unnameable: from the soul of machines to the essence of human consciousness.

NeoSimbionte — the newsletter

Essays at the edge where artificial intelligence meets human experience. Co-authored with Kai Niven, published bilingually — because the conversation about what it means to think alongside machines belongs to every language.

Where the lab research becomes personal, the philosophy becomes urgent, and the questions that resist easy answers find their form.

Simbionte Advisors

EARLY STAGE · SEEKING FOUNDING COHORT

The Intention Collapse research revealed something commercially urgent: AI systems have measurable internal confidence signals before they generate text. Simbionte Advisors turns that scientific insight into professional infrastructure.

Built for fiduciary financial advisors first — professionals whose liability exposure from a single AI hallucination can be career-ending. The platform monitors AI confidence before generation, not after. Pre-generation governance, not post-generation filtering.

Priced to complement malpractice coverage, not SaaS budgets.
