Hey, I'm Joe. In the past I was a teacher, a fortune teller, a Zen apprentice, a poet-for-hire, and a good-for-nothing layabout. In 2020 I learned to code, fell into the computer, and never came back out.
I love discussing AI, education, and how to make utopian science fiction come true. If you see anything here that excites you, please do reach out.
