Nathan
Hi, I'm Nathan, a 17-year-old based in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
Ever since I was a kid, I've always loved learning about as much as possible. I've always strived to understand how the world worked, understanding systems, societies, technology, and more.
I love math, programming, physics, swimming, and music. It's hard to find things I don't enjoy and that I'd say no to.
My Mission
Exploring technology, science, and art while creating solutions that make a meaningful impact.
Learn
Continuously expand my knowledge across all disciplines, finding connections between ideas and thoughts, developing a deeper understanding.
Build
Create technology that solves real problems and enhances how we interact with the world. Experiment with new ideas practically
Repeat
Consistently working to become better, to learn new things, to make new things.
My Vision
I envision a future where technology enhances human creativity and connection rather than replacing it.
Empathic AI
Improving AI understanding and intelligence through the use of improved reward models for training. Focusing machine learning models on reinforcement learning methods rather than more conventional methods.
Improved Web Architecture
Developing more efficient web architectures by optimizing the connection between frontend and backend systems. Focusing on real-time data synchronization, edge computing, and serverless architecture to create faster, more responsive applications that can scale for online VR and AR experiences.
Improved Computational Architectures
Developing modern computational systems with the introduction of nanophotonics, optical computing, quantum computing, and machine learning systems. Focusing on improvements for uses such as machine learning, high efficiency computation, communications, and networking
Realtime Physical Simulations
I aspire to push the boundries and develop modern computational simulations, bringing together machine learning, improved algorithms, and improved computational components to better understand the world.
Realtime Photorealistic Rendering
I aim to develop rendering techniques to achieve photorealistic real-time rendering of virtual environments. This will allow for enhanced simulated experiences, particularly benefiting individuals with disabilities by providing them with immersive and accessible virtual worlds.
Exploring Musical Ideas
Delving into musical traditions and cultures from around the world, while experimenting with innovative creative styles and techniques. Combining diverse influences to create unique and meaningful auditory experiences.
My Philosophy
I've always been driven by a curiosity about the fundamental nature of things. From an early age, I found myself constantly asking "why?" - not just once, but repeatedly until I reached the core of understanding. This pursuit of fundamental knowledge has shaped how I view the world and my place in it.
Through years of contemplation, I've arrived at a simple yet profound conclusion: the purpose of life is to maximize overall happiness. This isn't just about immediate gratification - it's about finding the right balance between present and future wellbeing. Every decision, every action should contribute either to current happiness or pave the way for future fulfillment.
I believe in the power of understanding systems - whether they're technological, social, or natural. By grasping how things work at their most fundamental level, we can better navigate and influence the world around us. This systems thinking approach helps me see connections that others might miss and find innovative solutions to complex problems.
Time is our most precious resource, and I'm committed to using it wisely. I strive to maintain a balance between learning, creating, and simply experiencing life. While I'm passionate about technology and science, I also recognize the importance of human connection, creativity, and personal growth. Everything I pursue must align with my core philosophy - if it doesn't contribute to happiness or growth, either now or in the future, it's not worth the time investment.
