About These Notes
I’m Koosha. These days, I’m focused on how the machine minds [aka AI] might actually work and stay answerable. These are field notes, mostly speculative unless specified, from the intersection of:

• Practical engineering
• Foundational questions (especially around how machine cognition should work)
• Future implications (with actionable trajectories)

How I Think

1. First-principles ruthlessness. Always returning to fundamentals.
2. Transparency. Speculation vs. evidence is always flagged.
3. Experience-based perspective. Shaped by cycles of solo product building, hands-on coding, and time in big tech critical teams.

Why It Matters
To help accelerate better AI by:

• Sharing thought processes that stay ethically grounded, first-principles driven, and occasionally surface ideas others overlook
• Bringing more attention to what real machine minds might actually require

How to Read This

• These are working theories, not conclusions
• Challenge speculations freely, your experience matters (contribute publicly, @koushai)
• Some posts will likely be wrong. That’s part of the process. I’d rather explore openly than stay polished and silent.

My Background

• Solo built and shipped 15+ systems and products; led engineering teams on large-scale systems (including AWS Billing Console and formation of AWS Carbon Footprint tool, or EA’s tool unification console)
• Pioneer in behavioral analytics and HCI; now fully focused on machine minds [aka AI]
• Currently architecting foundations for truly capable systems
• Strong con·vic·tion: machine minds are achievable; no fundamental blockers
• Deep concern: AI’s ethical impact goes far beyond humanity
