1 Master's work in natural language processing and machine learning. Also applied to electromagnetic warfare and signals intelligence.
2 Blockchain is the digital trust layer that is underpinning the digital native economy. I built a startup, have been funded by the Ethereum Foundation, and continue to advise in this space.
3 Generative AI has been dominating the economy and conversations. I have been studying how people interact with and best use this tech and how to deploy it.
4 Physical AI is next. Human-machine fusion at the bio layer is after that.
