Fluxive
Saratoga Springs, New YorkA small research office in Saratoga Springs, New York.
Fluxive is where the Influence Design in the AI Era series lives, along with the research underneath it. One person writes both: how work should be organized once it is shared with machines, and what the machines themselves are able to account for.
Hardware-enforced AI governance.
The lab investigates a structural gap in modern computing: general-purpose processors have no mechanism for evaluating AI-behavioral policy at the instruction layer. Our research program addresses that gap through silicon design.
Publications from the lab include Influence Design in the AI Era (Business Expert Press, 2025) and the September 2026 whitepaper on ungoverned compute.
Active work programs.
Writing The Physics of Governance, the second volume in the series.
The research behind it: what a processor is able to account for, and what it would take to make behavioral policy something the base layer can hold.
Testing the systems the books describe — the part that keeps the writing honest.
