m2onad

AI, consciousness, and the best of all possible worlds.

A young Leibniz-like figure in 18th-century dress reclines under a tree with a book, lost in thought, with a distant landscape and tents in the background.

The m² in m²onad represents mind and machine in symbiosis for the greater goodness of the world. This is my collection of projects and essays exploring how we perceive, model, and improve a world that may already be the best of all possible worlds - if we keep working to increase its goodness.

“Each created monad represents the whole universe.”
— G. W. Leibniz, Monadology, §62
“The present is big with the future, the future might be read in the past, the distant is expressed in the near.”
— G. W. Leibniz, Monadology, §22
