My whole life, I’ve wondered how people make decisions and how they process the world around them. Maybe you wonder that too. That’s what this blog is about.

I work in AI, but I got here because I love the human and the animal mind. My writing is a place to compare the artificial mind with the human.

Cognitive science asks: what are the mechanisms that make up a mind? This is a blog about cognitive science, linguistics, artificial intelligence, neuroscience, and life. Also sometimes about effective altruism and the wider world. Sometimes told through the lens of game design, and I hope you find these posts entertaining as well as thought-provoking.
