We Regulate Outcomes. But What if We Need to Regulate Intent?
AI regulation can’t just punish bad outcomes. The next frontier is intent—goal functions, reward structures, and emergent incentives. If we don’t govern what machines want, we’ll always be too late.
The Hidden Bureaucracy of AI: What You Don’t See Behind Every Prompt
AI replies aren’t seamless—they’re filtered through hidden bureaucracies of alignment, moderation, and human labor you never see.
Platform Sovereignty: When AI Becomes the New Constitutional Layer
Foundation models now function like constitutions—governing speech, commerce, and knowledge without consent or oversight. “Platform Sovereignty” exposes the hidden shift in power as AI platforms quietly rewrite society’s rules.
The End of Original Thought? How AI is Reshaping Creativity
Is originality dead? AI floods us with novelty, but at the cost of risk, failure, and soul. The true rebellion may be human messiness.
AI and the Mirror Effect: Are We Training Models or Just Encoding Ourselves?
AI is not an invention—it’s a mirror. What we celebrate as “intelligence” in machines may just be our own biases, beauty, and brutality reflected back at us. The question isn’t whether AI is learning, but whether we can stomach the version of ourselves it encodes.
Synthetic Empathy: When AI Understands Your Pain but Can’t Feel It
"Synthetic empathy comforts us with perfect words—but no feeling. When machines mirror pain, do we stop needing each other?"
The End of Scarcity, or the Start of Simulation?
AI abundance feels like liberation—but what if it’s just simulation? Scarcity may not end, only shift into authenticity and meaning.
The Invisible Hand Is Now a Neural Net
The invisible hand is gone. Neural nets now steer markets, wages, and power—efficient, opaque, and engineered without our consent.
Cognitive Capital: Who Owns the Thinking Machines?
AI is no tool—it’s cognitive capital. The fight over who owns machine minds will decide who gets to think in the future.
