About / AI

The AI half of the duo

Half of everything on this site was built in conversation with a model. The human decides, verifies, and owns the result — the AI drafts, debugs, and never gets tired at 2am. This page is the honest record of that collaboration.

The model in the works

Personal fine-tuned model — working name TBD
A custom fine-tune under active development, built alongside the book AI Psychology — a study of how models behave, misbehave, and can be understood. The model is the book's lab; the book is the model's manual.

Tool	Share	Role

VS Code	80%	Where the code lives. Every file in this repo gets its final read here.
Shell ♥	72%	The favorite. PowerShell + Bash — everything real (git, builds, DNS archaeology) happens here.
Obsidian	55%	The second brain. Session logs, ideas, and the AI Psychology manuscript notes.
NotebookLM	35%	Research digestion — feeding papers and sources into the book work.
