Engineering Better Thinking
Human cognition. Artificial cognition. Systems that bridge the two.
I'm Richard Anton — a software engineer, AI systems architect, and writer. I design tools and frameworks that help both humans think better and machines think better.
My work connects learning science, neurodivergent-friendly productivity, and cutting-edge AI agent architectures.
