Sec. 03 — Mind like a machine

Small models, sharp tools.

I build AI systems the way I build everything else: scoped tight, tuned by hand, and answerable to the person using them. Local-first when possible, honest about limits always.

01

Specificity beats scale

A small model with a precise scaffold routinely outperforms a giant one with a vague prompt. Most problems deserve a scalpel, not a cathedral.

02

Privacy is architecture

If the design requires shipping someone's life to a datacenter, the design is wrong. On-device inference is a feature users can feel.

03

Failure must be legible

An AI tool that fails silently is a liability. I design for visible confidence: the system says what it knows, and what it's guessing.
