Connecting worlds

I am often asked how entrepreneurship, quantum research, engineering and DJing fit together. The honest answer is that I do not experience them as separate. Each is a way of connecting two worlds that do not yet touch.

One theme, several expressions

DeepRecommend connects people with the intelligence that can understand them. QIRI connects quantum computation with industrial problems that are waiting for it. A DJ set connects an audience with a sequence of sound, light and time. The medium changes; the act is the same.

Technology should expand humanity

Technology should not replace humanity. It should expand its possibilities.

This is the test I apply to every project. If a system makes people more capable, freer to create and better connected to each other and to nature, it is worth building. If it only substitutes for them, it is not.

A direction, not a claim

Some areas I care about, such as invasive brain–computer interfaces, are long-horizon directions rather than finished products. I list them under Research as interests and explorations, separately from work that is already in operation. The conviction behind them is simple: no human ability should be permanently lost because the biological connection failed.
