Writings on AI
wm →
World Make is my Substack where I write about what happens when frontier AI meets real users. I'm drawn to the questions that sit between the research and product: how do we design for systems that reason, act, and sometimes get it wrong? The series connects frontier AI to older ideas from art, philosophy, and computing. I find it's the best way to make the technical ideas more understandable and genuinely interesting. New essays bi-weekly.
Agent Design
I’ve been writing about AI agents since 2021. The questions I keep coming back to are:
- What does trust look like in human-agent collaboration?
- How should interfaces expose agent reasoning and actions?What happens when multiple agents disagree or conflict?
- Most current frameworks focus on capability.
I’m more interested in the interfaces and supervision models that make those capabilities usable.
Multimodal models that understand images, video, and physical environments don't behave like traditional software. Many existing design patterns simply don't apply. I write about what that means: tools for world models, robotics and embodied AI, spatial interaction patterns. The rules of software design are being rewritten right now, and I want to be part of figuring out what comes next.
Emerging Design Challenges
As AI systems become more capable and autonomous, the role of design is shifting.
We're no longer just designing interfaces — we're designing behaviour, collaboration, and trust between humans and machines. These essays explore the emerging challenges at that boundary: multi-agent systems, computer-using agents, human-AI coordination, and what happens when powerful models meet real users and real contexts.
Creativity & AI
Where AI meets making. I'm interested in how creative tools, generative systems, and new interaction patterns change what people feel comfortable trying. This covers everything from producing electronic music with hardware synthesisers to how foundation models are reshaping the creative process itself. The most exciting moments are when someone uses a tool in a way you didn't expect.
