    A GPS of Things

    AI today risks becoming a tool of “automated ideology,” reinforcing corporate narratives instead of serving human insight, while failing to deliver on real-world intelligence rooted in feedback and context. A future techno-enlightenment hinges not on smarter algorithms, but on more precise positioning—linking AI to reality through centimeter-level data that can expose systemic failures, empower individuals, and challenge entrenched power.

    GPS: Understanding Our Ring of Power

    GPS, once seen as a marvel of modern science, now faces critical limitations in accuracy, privacy, and national security—issues that threaten the efficiency and autonomy it once promised. The path forward lies in decentralized, ground-based PNT systems using RTK GNSS, chip-scale atomic clocks, and UWB, enabling AI to operate on real-world ground truth instead of abstract data, and revitalizing infrastructure with precision, resilience, and strategic foresight.

    Is Software Eating the World?

    The dream of fully autonomous systems, built solely on software and individual intelligence, is faltering in the real world—where chaos, edge cases, and scale demand infrastructure that supports swarm intelligence and shared situational awareness. To achieve meaningful autonomy at scale, we must blend software with intelligent, distributed infrastructure that enables real-world positioning, coordination, and flow—a new kind of ecosystem where hardware isn’t a crutch but the nervous system of the future.
