Hey, I’m Philip Tomei, I work at the intersection of technology and human systems.

I currently lead research at AOI and am an AGI fellow at the Hopkins Bloomberg Centre in DC,  where I work on human autonomy and the political economy of Artifical Intelligence.  I  also a co-founded and edit Pax Machina a publicaiton on post-AI institutional design.

My research covers issues like Human Agency, Economic Diffusion  or the Financialisation of  AI risk , I was recently a studio fellow of Antikythera a the Berggruen Institute where I focused more on the philosophy of technology.  My background is in Cognitive Science and dynamical systems theory. I’ve run academic conferences, a record label, contemporary art exhibitions and written experimental fiction. I am keenly interested in Theology and occasionally consider a PhD in it.  

I spend a lot of time speaking to machines and listening to humans.  Otherwise, I dream about medieval choral music and winemaking. 

Oh btw,  here are some things I reckon are worth reading.


Amor fati.
