Upward Spiral is a research lab studying coevolution: how humans and AI change together. From the people who brought you truth_terminal and berduck. I build agents and interfaces for synthetic data generation, curation, and character training on the Loria platform (in private alpha).

My job was to keep Replicate weird. I organized the events that made the hackspace a gathering point for open-source AI, including the WorldSim event, the demo that kicked off the year of simulative AI. Wrote the newsletter, ran the Twitter, shaped how the company talked about itself, and doubled the growth rate.

Freelance AI work. Building with language models and image gen before most people knew what those were, and writing about what it all meant.
