Debugging as a Window into How AI Thinks
Watching AI tools solve the same problem in radically different ways reveals something about their cognitive architecture, and about the nature of problem-solving itself.
Engineer at heart • Exploring AI, robotics & the human experience
I love building things, exploring, and learning. I write about robotics, AI, spiritual growth and mental health.
This space is where I explore the intersection of technology and humanity, from training neural networks to understanding our own neural pathways.
2025 — Enterprise RAG with 89% accuracy. FastSentiment API with sub-100ms inference. AI research agent processing 100+ papers daily.
2024 — ML systems engineering. Traffic sign classification at 96% accuracy. Attention mechanism visualizer for education.
Watching AI tools solve the same problem in radically different ways reveals something about their cognitive architecture, and about the nature of problem-solving itself.
My job quietly changed underneath me. I used to write code. Now I write instructions for systems that write code. Tracing a 50-year abstraction trend to understand what engineering is becoming.
What it's like to build AI systems that automate your own skills, and the quiet fear that doesn't fit neatly into hype or doom.
