About me

Thorge profile picture

Hi, I'm Thorge.

I'm working at Fermi as part of the founding team and Head of Engineering to automate engineering simulations to help bring about engineering superintelligence.

I'm also a co-founder of Aurea, a Berlin-based group house bringing together thoughtful founders, researchers, builders, and thinkers.

Some things I believe:

  • Technological progress is the main driver of civilisational progress — we should accelerate it thoughtfully.
  • We solved mental health 2500 years ago. It's called Buddhism. Enlightenment is real; you can reduce your suffering by 90-99%.
  • The great man theory is real. A single individual can change the fate of humanity.
  • Live life with an open heart, even when it hurts. Never become cynical. We are all going to make it.
  • True abundance is outer (material) and inner (spiritual).
  • The future of humanity is being decided in San Francisco.
  • The nuclear family has run its course. We need more value-based community living.
