Researchers building autonomous AI for business
A decade of DARPA-funded research in goal-driven autonomy, metacognition, and adaptive planning — now applied to running real companies.
Doctoral thesis: Self-Monitoring Goal Driven Autonomy. Led TALONS, a $1.75M DARPA program on adaptive AI agents that operate under persistent novelty. 10+ years building autonomous systems that detect, diagnose, and recover from their own failures. 30+ peer-reviewed publications (AAAI, IJCAI).
20-year veteran of defense research. Authored and led proposals awarded tens of millions via DARPA. Research on agents for medical triage, reconnaissance, and urban combat scenarios. 13-year collaborator with Dustin. Co-architect of Goal-Driven Autonomy.
