I am working on tackling robotics and AI by throwing out almost all of the existing paradigms. Instead, I want to develop and refine ideas around artificial life, virtual biology, etc. This will draw heavily on simulations, and biological principles. Furthermore, I am seeking to stand up a new type of organization to do this, a cross between a venture-studio, research-lab, and a traditional start-up.
