About

I seem to be obsessed with understanding the human brain completely. I am also interested in how far one person’s mind and material freedom can go, and in how far the world today is from that.

I dropped out of high school because my instinct told me not to stay. I did many random things. Then I realized I cannot stop thinking and writing my thoughts down. Now I am working toward understanding the human brain.

Work

  • Thought Room

    Thought Room turns your writing into cards, sorts them into a hierarchy of topics, and lets you share the board with your friends and your AI.

  • Content

    Every day, I post a video that explains and visualizes that day’s thoughts and knowledge. By making them clear to others, I try to think more deeply and build an understanding that holds up.

  • Sapiens Telos

    Sapiens Telos tries to pin down the upper limits of one person’s mind and material freedom and the realistic goals below them, and maps the people working toward each.

  • The Daily Frontier (in Japanese)

    The Daily Frontier follows the researchers, founders, and organizations at the frontier of humanity. It watches everything they post on X and their blogs in real time and turns it into clear articles in Japanese.
