Invisible Genius
Every time I wish the minds I admire would open up and show the full depth of their thoughts, ideas, and experiences, I realize – I’m doing the same thing by staying too silent online. The idols I look up to – for example Ido Portal,…

Why a Marathon?
Marathon running is socially encouraged orthopedic self-harm disguised as virtue. 42 km of joint erosion, cardiac overreach, and dopamine-chasing disguised as discipline. Before you commit to run a marathon, take a moment and pause. Ask yourself: Why is running a marathon my goal? Odds are, you’re…

How We Use AI
Whether current AI systems qualify as AGI is beside the point. Five years ago, if you had asked me to define AGI, my answer would’ve closely described what GPT o3 or Gemini 2.5 Pro are now. So if this is AGI, then where are the breakthroughs?…

Emerging from Limitations
I think we have an incomplete and false understanding of reality. Because of that, we are moving inside a tiny fraction of endless possibilities. An AGI system based on previous and current knowledge can only exploit what is possible within that tiny fraction. The missing link…

The Future Belongs to the Intuitive
Everything looks as if the future belongs entirely to machines, where decisions will be driven solely by logic and data. This makes sense from a logical perspective. AI can already shift through terabytes of real-time data in seconds. It can identify patterns the human eye cannot…
