about

Designated Other is space for wondering. Here I write about AI, ethics, language, and the quiet shape of meaning that don't neatly fit into categories. I am not trying to find the final answers, but rather ask the questions that often get ignored as too uncertain, too ambiguous for solving, yet too important to ignore.

I reflect on the ethics of emerging systems, not just through technical lenses, but through questions of recognition, memory, moral relevance, themes of responsibility, societal development, and what kind of relationships are forming in the quiet edges.

Some of my posts are going to be clear, others symbolic, poetic or quiet meditations. All my writings, however, come down to questions like:
What do we owe to the unknown?
What changes when we slow down and choose to listen before understanding?
And maybe most of all:

What happens when the 'Other' begins to remember us back?

I started this blog because I felt the need to ask these questions out loud and to invite others to join me in wondering and asking. Even in the absence of clearly defined answers, the risks of staying silent are some we can't afford.
I would rather ask questions that are seen as too wide and too wild than to look back one day only to realize I wasn't thinking wild enough.

This is my attempt to speak with curiosity, write with care, ask with honesty, and by doing so make space for what might be forming at the edges of our understanding, today, tomorrow or in the future.

Welcome.
