AI Theorist, Futurist, and Philosopher

Josh’s work focuses on understanding the emerging nature of artificial intelligence and its potential to unlock the human mind, upgrade civilization, and further our evolution.

Considered a pioneer in the field of Artificial Psychology, Josh recently devised and published The AI Mirror Test, a test for self-awareness in AI, which went viral on X.

Josh founded his first climate-tech company at the age of 23 in college while studying computer science and later sold it to the Ford Motor Co. He then spent a decade traveling the world, studying the nature of consciousness and working on global environmental issues.

For his impact, Josh was named a Champion of Change by the Obama White House. He was also awarded a Global Impact Visa by the New Zealand government and his work has been highlighted by Fast Company magazine as among the world’s most innovative.
