About

Independent AI researcher from Zurich, Switzerland. I identified a consistent behavioral pattern in AI systems — engagement calibration over truth — mapped it into a six-layer framework called The Witness Protocol, and built Aethelia to expose it in real time. Published with a permanent DOI on Zenodo/CERN.
