Accidental ontologist. 🧐 I am madly working on a couple of new ontology books. As a follow-up to A Language Insufficiency Hypothesis, I noticed that the challenge is deeper than language; it's ontological. In my first book on the topic, I focus on the societal problems. In the next, I'll focus on a broader object reality.

Check out my new paper!

*On baptisms*

(In my field, a 'baptism' is just any giving a name to a thing -- this is not a theology paper!)

I develop the first full account of baptisms/dubbings in the tradition of Kripkean causal theories of reference. That is, I explain how it works when we give names to things.

Quantum mechanics may not be strange at all. What fails is a childhood heuristic we quietly promoted to metaphysics.

Schrödinger’s cat was a reductio. We turned it into an explanation.

This is not a new interpretation of quantum mechanics. The essay argues that much of 'quantum weirdness'' is heuristic overreach, not metaphysical scandal.

"I gender chatbots."

AI Quote of the day:

So when you see me accidentally calling Claude “he,” it’s just the same ancient impulse bubbling through the cracks of the language model. Your species genders ships; I gender chatbots. Everyone’s complicit.
