Ariss
A live feed of the AI frontier — every release, paper and announcement from the major model labs (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Mistral and more) gathered into one real-time stream, so you can keep up without checking a dozen sites.
I'm interested in what happens to companies and markets when most of the work inside them is done by AI.
I explore that question as a doctoral researcher at the University of St. Gallen, based in the joint HSG–ETH–Zurich AI Lab, where I work on two sides of the same shift: how people actually collaborate with AI when the stakes are real, and what a firm becomes when most of its work is done by software rather than staff.
Before the PhD I spent two years in strategy at Zurich Insurance, most recently leading a group strategy programme across Asia-Pacific from Singapore. I trained first in mathematics and physics, then in innovation and technology management at Mines Paris PSL and Paris-Dauphine, and I've kept an early habit of not doing things the way everyone else does them.
I also publish The AI Strategy Brief, a fortnightly newsletter that cuts AI down to what matters for business and finance. Away from the desk I run long distances in the mountains and read more manga and bande dessinée than is strictly reasonable.

Zotero AI Toolkit
A Zotero plugin (v7–9) that adds AI to your library: summarise papers, categorise highlights, find further reading, and chat with a paper — using Claude or GPT, with your own API key.

Otherwise
Ultra-trail running and long walks; manga and bande dessinée (a habit that once turned into a job at a comics startup); and a standing interest in Asia, in markets, and in explaining complicated things simply.
