Things I'm working on and interested in
Writing
I try to only release essays when I have something to say.
AI
My (long) note on artificial intelligence. Previously I built and sold an AI Media Company, called the Intelligence Age.
Improving our social fabric
Maple is a company I co-founded in early 2024 to tackle inefficiencies in the dating market and reverse major societal trends including loneliness, lower household formation rates, and birth rates.
Investing
Current areas of interest are AI, energy, defence, space, and manufacturing. I'm a scout for AirTree Ventures (~$1.3bn fund). I've invested in more than 15 startups.
History
Faster Than Normal is my outlet to study history's greatest people.
Music
I have been a top 0.005% Spotify listener of Rufus Du Sol for several years. I enjoy everything from classical to country to techno.
Competition
In a previous life, I played Water Polo for Australia. I'm an amateur poker and pool player.
