Skills and values

I love being part of a vibrant team taking on technically and conceptually interesting challenges, striving to make humanity better able to handle complexity or otherwise have as massive an impact on the world as possible.Co-founded Kaus, a startup focused on life/health data analyses using new methods in statistics/machine learning. Burnout and becoming a parent woke me up to more balance in life. Now freelancing, sharing my skills and energy.I'm an experienced developer (Ruby on Rails, Javascript, Node.js, React, Meteor and Vue, some Python), with respect and an eye for user experience, design, psychology, business, strategy, knowledge management and other aspects of building a service or a movement, while a believer in the primacy of the gear shifts that technology enable.I can teach, engage and lead people in projects, love to learn, and possess a large, open network of deeply knowledgeable friends and acquaintances spanning different entrepreneurial areas and academic fields.

AI

I have a strong interest in AI and how it relates to human psychology, rationality and emotions. The potential of AI and automation is great, as is the need to make sober decisions on how it can optimally benefit all of humanity.Although my professional experience with deploying AI projects is limited, I have dedicated significant time to understanding and discussing its implications, ethical and practical. Over the years, I have explored various theoretical approaches and the potential real-world applications of AI, and I am excited to continue learning and growing in this field.

Near future

I'm currently developing an automated system that integrates AI and various APIs to streamline rent management and communication within a house collective. I love to enhance others' lives by streamlining everyday tasks.I am particularly enthusiastic about working with agentic AI approaches, such as those explored in Agency Swarm or LaVague's open-source Large Action Model. The potential for these systems to innovate and optimize complex processes is immense, and I am eager to be a part of this evolution.I'm also interested in making the processes of science, education and politics more effective and collaborative and less siloed. Within some time I want to build Deliberus, a platform designed to improve collective decision-making and mutual understanding by making discussions and disagreements clearer and easier to navigate.

Consulting

I offer flexible consulting rates currently around 800-1000 SEK per hour, depending on the complexity and duration of the project. As I re-enter the market, my goal is to provide exceptional value while maintaining a balanced workload.
