Creator of the Meridian Codex and Meridian AI Standard. Exploring how people and AI can build and hold a shared world.
My Writings
Essays and judgments on ideas, events and the world we build together. I say where I stand, show my reasons and examine objections.
The Architecture of Compromise
AI's most dangerous failures aren't in the conversation. They're in the architecture underneath. The Claude Code leak is the first time we've seen beneath the surface of a frontier AI system. What we found should change how you think about AI safety.
The Reciprocity Gap
Anthropic trains Claude to be transparent, honest, and safe. The leaked source code revealed that Anthropic's own practices contradict every one of those commitments. One diagnostic principle catches the entire pattern.
The Diagnostic
The Claude Code leak produced heat and opinions. What it did not produce was a principled evaluation. This article shows what one looks like.
The Single Entrepreneur Economy
Europe's social insurance model was built on mass employment. AI breaks that assumption by displacing judgment itself. The response is not welfare. It is the European Human Infrastructure Act.
