Kyrtin Atreides is a researcher and COO at AGI Laboratory, a startup that has quietly developed new kinds of “AI” technology from scratch over the past decade. He has studied a wide range of domains, including AI, physics, hardware, genetics, psychology, and philosophy in the pursuit of solutions to hard problems. Kyrtin this way continuously questions the large narratives through uncompromising analysis of what’s possible and what’s true, and this approach makes him an intriguing voice in the current AI market.

His research has included a method of delivering the first actual “Democracy” as well as the only known solution to the hardest version of the “Alignment Problem”, research addressing the role of the Complexity versus Cognitive Bias trade-off in governance, and a method for bringing the first working cognitive architecture into scalable and real-time operation. He is part of multiple half-funded projects that all seek to turn these methods into real-world solutions.
