QUALIA INTEL
Exploring AI x Knowledge x Society.
Work in the open
Qualia Intel is an inquiry into AI, collaborative intelligence and society, argued in images (Instagram-format) and essays (Substack, new). It sits at the intersection of form, science, and social commentary. Both a research exploration and a creative practice, Qualia experiments with hybrid workflows and AI-generated visuals. It is, quite simply, where my interests and skills come together. Small, and growing. That's the point: you can watch the argument being built.

Papers, preprints, conference floors, public debates … followed across the social sciences, cognitive science, HCI (Human-Computer Interaction), philosophy of mind and visual culture. The good questions sit between the fields. Qualia brings back the ones that change how we think, and work with AI.

One question might become a visual dossier, a carousel that argues slide by slide, a mechanism card ending in a protocol you can actually use, or an essay when the idea needs room. Soon: reported pieces, from conference floors and the field.

No benchmark racing or model showdowns. Plenty of places do that already, and better. Tools do show up here, but tested. The center of focus stays human: how we think, judge, create and collaborate when machines join in, and who builds, owns and governs the systems we do it with.
Socio-technical challenges: the most pressing questions about AI are human.

How AI reshapes thought and human agency.
How AI changes thought, judgment, memory, creativity when we start thinking with and through machines.

How AI reorganizes society and power.
How AI shifts power, opportunity and risk as it is woven into institutions, markets and everyday life. And who builds, governs and answers for those systems.

How AI changes what we know and believe.
What we can really know about AI systems, and what happens when they begin to mediate information, evidence, authorship and knowledge.
