Explore the Research
A living collection of inquiries into humanity's trajectory through technological transformation. Each piece is designed to be explored, not just read.
The Zero Cost Question
First Principles Exploration
Can intelligence really become "too cheap to meter"? We examine the economic foundations, the transport layer everyone ignores, and the questions the moonshot thinkers should answer.
The Man With The Mop
Core Thesis
Fundamental human needs persist regardless of how we meet them. The technology changes the HOW, not the WHAT. What does this mean for the future of work?
The Cathedral Question
Meaning in Abundance
The cathedrals weren't built by comfortable people with nothing to do. What happens when abundance arrives without purpose? The question the tech narrative ignores.
Twenty Futures
Sector Transformations
From healthcare to entertainment, education to energy. What persists, what transforms, what emerges in each domain. A systematic exploration.
Pressure Points
Technical Deep-Dive
The six binding constraints on AI cost reduction. Energy, heat, algorithms, capital, useful output—and transport. First principles for the technically minded.
Steel Man
The Abundance Thesis
The strongest possible version of the techno-optimist argument. Wright's Law, dematerialization, recursive improvement. Taking the proponents seriously.
