Bio, but as a post

Hi, I’m Mark! I want to understand reality and greatly progress humanity, all while building trustworthy decades-long relationships and having fun.

That led me to work on AI safety. Currently doing a few independent strategy and fieldbuilding projects. Focusing on deliberate practice and becoming unignorably good. Before that I spent ≈8 months on technical AI safety.

Previously I was searching for a well-fitting problem and craft to maximize my impact, exploring longevity, web-dev, and startups. Usually I’d make a guess, intensely dive into it, and try making something worthy of remark, e.g.:

  • I made two handbooks (≈200p. each) and several podcasts simply and deeply explaining David Deutsch books. Got endorsed by David, Naval Ravikant, Sam Hinkie, and others.

  • Inspired by Scott Young finishing MIT CS bachelor in one year, I pursued a similar CS self-study with full stack web-dev focus for 8 months. (Pivoted to ML and technical AI safety.)

  • I worked at Onramper as biz-dev and helped them launch a subscription model; left after MoonPay’s acquisition.

For more read essays from My Evolving Almanack on my life’s: philosophy, goals, principles, or where I come from; or explore projects below.

I made my website to connect with aligned people and build a seamless web of deserved trust. Consider coming along! :)
