Hi, I’m Lenz. I’m a social technologist.

You may know me as ramennaut in a lot of platforms. In real life, people just call me Lenz.

I’m an academic by training, though I’m now essentially a product manager. I have my roots in research and have studied pedagogical considerations during the pandemic, grassroots fundraising for maginalised communities, and most recently, urban food deserts. Lately, I’ve developed a deep hyperfixation for building socially-attuned technologies that contributes a net positive impact on the world.

Some neglected areas I find important are: existential risks in AI (including dual-risk with WMDs), transformative AI, and improving institutional decision making.

I’m in the process of expanding and refining my worldview. If you find yourself interested in the same things I care about, feel free to drop me a message.

This space is for my very public brain dump since microblogs don’t seem to do the trick anymore. A lot of the things I wrote and dumped here may not make sense. Please take note that unless I specifically shared it to you or publicly posted it on social media, I probably just wrote it for myself, following my own train of thought.

If you find yourself interested in the same things I care about, feel free to drop me a message at mail@lenz.wiki
