[ CORE MISSION ]
Artificial intelligence is as potent an innovation as the internet or nuclear power. This poses an incredible existential threat to humanity if misused. Everyone in our field has a moral obligation to take responsibility for what we unleash on this planet.
Diagnostic and rectification tooling is paramount to align future models with our values and fight biases, hate speech, breaches of privacy, weaponization and energy wastage.
[ CARBON LABS INITIATIVE ]
Great research should be shared and open, but also ferociously advocated for and streamlined into core product offerings. As model and content complexity increases, the demand for novel and niche componentry does so too, such as: Charts, fully editable code, Math formulas, Molecular diagrams...
I lead an initiative to provide a universally accessible, fully-expandable open source library to plug in any chosen AI service, display rich content and test out novel componentry.
We also need ways to understand model behavior with highly specific feedback systems.

[ FORM TO THE FORMLESS ]
Having a primarily visual memory and trouble feeling misunderstood, my aim is to convey how I see the world and data.
I hope to achieve this through a novel holographic medium, bridging the digital and the real.
Nothing is for sale, purely for fun. I only support non-profit open organisations I believe in such as: Wikimedia, the Internet Archive and the Alzheimers Neuro-imaging initiative.
Above all, I wish to return the same sense of beauty, curiosity and wonderment 9 year old Owen felt walking into the Dali museum in Barcelona.
