i3AI

i3AI - the Infinite Improbability Institute for Artificial Intelligence - is the umbrella for my independent research into the substrate of biological intelligence and consciousness. What began toward a PhD thesis in 1999 I revisited during a three-year sabbatical (2017-2020) and have continued since, working toward a biologically plausible neural-network framework for AGI. It is not actively investigated right now while I focus on agentic AI, but the computational-neuroscience learnings continue to guide that work.

The research lives in two main threads, captured as sub-projects below: the AGI experiments sandbox, and the Homeostasis Theory of consciousness. A public site (built on Sitepress/Rails) hosts the long-form manuscripts, the 2018 poster, and supporting essays.
