Are we shaping technology, or is technology shaping us?

Both are true. We are in a continuous loop, primarily driven by economics. For two decades, we've witnessed the rise of attention-grabbing, data-harvesting tech that's left us more connected but less human. The cost? Our mental health, privacy, and genuine human connection.
Can we shift from being the human in the loop to being humane in the loop?
I'm on a mission to prioritize intention over attention. I explore technology that amplifies our humanity rather than diminishing it. Technology that champions compassion, preserves dignity, and maximizes well-being.
Every week, I curate and share developments in AI, software, and hardware through a humanistic lens.
In 2021, I co-founded Napkin, pioneering AI-powered mindfulness. The latest developments in vibe coding inspire me to create more.
We're living in an unprecedented moment where anyone with an idea can bring it to life. I hope to see a vibe shift in the coming years: Software from people for people.
Join me on this journey of building humane technology. You'll get an unfiltered look at both the breakthroughs and the setbacks as I navigate this new frontier.
