Thinking About AI Since T2
Born in Sri Lanka in 1981, and raised in Montreal, QC, I had two foundational years in Building Engineering, before switching into Film Animation. This shift was not just vocational; it provided me with an intricate understanding of spatial design and 2D technologies - the invisible art of matte painting, which earned me a living for over a decade in film and VFX. My interest had always been in human behaviour and so I explored the fragmentation of the human mindscape by noticing the effect of technology on our attention spans and modern entitlements. This study culminated in the creation of an integration agency designed to address these disconnections, paradoxes, and blockages in modern life.
Simultaneously, I transferred 6 years of research into virtual reality and started a VR club, with my venture partner - Christa Mariah, we hosted debates and courses in this 360° space, clearly seeing complex systemic matters from multiple lenses. Using this VR studio, enterprises and economists can test the integrity of various systems, including a way to restore the value of the unit (1). with the ultimate goal being the initiation of a public trust fund to reconnect our fragmenting systems. This venture is designed to empower freelance artists, enabling them to channel their incredible talents towards the collective betterment of humanity. I presently share these learned principles to advocate for humane AGI, striving for a future where artificial intelligence complements rather than competes with human essence.
