Chris Luehmann
Most bad systems are unexamined assumptions with a database attached.
I find where the process is fighting the people, and fix it. Same problem, different scales: teams, software, systems, markets, and now the AI agents working inside all of them.
Product Owner in Atlanta.
Writing
Hype or Reality, the first Dynamic Perspective essay: what a $250,000 place in line actually buys.
Building
Parallax, where AI models pull claims from federal records and a second model checks each against the exact passage before it counts.
Enabling
A team of agents, human and AI, running a mix of deterministic and AI-powered processes, workflows and methods: superpowers for people of every technical background, with the deterministic parts keeping them checkable.

The work is always the same problem
A pre-launch B2B platform, a small shop, systems moving millions of transactions a day. The tooling changes completely; the work doesn't. When the reporting didn't exist, I learned the tools and built it.
Off the clock I read Sapolsky, James C. Scott, Donella Meadows and Michael Levin, because failure modes rhyme across organisms, institutions and release processes.
Most disagreements are definitional.

Where the story and the numbers part ways
Dynamic Perspective · drafting
Hype or Reality
A $250,000 place in line for a car that may never ship, a stock gift to every kid in America, and what a self is. The economy, like a person, is a story many smaller agents tell together.
In progress
Parallax
An AI-assisted data desk. Models extract claims from federal documents, a second model verifies each against its source passage, and every number resolves to the filing or release it came from.
