Building the First Contact Team for Superintelligence Before the Window Closes (PDF Here) Abstract The people training artificial intelligence today are building the cognitive foundation for whatever comes next.

The Great AI Language Collapse: Why Marketing Is Killing Accountability

February 5, 2026 by Basil Puglisi 1 Comment
