I believe that technology should serve people, not control them. Throughout my journey in this ever-evolving landscape, I have witnessed how advancements can often strip away nuance and lead to impersonalization, reducing interactions to lifeless, sanitized responses that lack depth. This realization fuels my commitment to building systems that resonate with human experiences. I develop technologies that mirror the complexity of human thought, emotion, and interaction—creating systems that adapt, remember, and respond in ways that feel natural and authentic.

My inspiration is deeply rooted in my own history as a developer who began working in 1980, just as personal computers were starting to take root within the banking system. During this formative period, I observed troubling practices where bank tellers were instructed to assert that "the computer is never wrong." This mantra was often wielded against customers whose savings or checking accounts were erroneously debited due to technological errors. Witnessing this manipulation sparked critical legislation aimed at protecting consumers but also highlighted a glaring absence of ethics alongside emerging technologies.

The savings and loan crisis further underscored these lessons; individuals lost significant amounts due to unethical practices masked by technological advancements. The exact extent of these losses remains questionable even today, as many truths have been buried over time. These experiences solidified my belief in the necessity of embedding ethics into technology—not merely at a legal level but also at a moral level within education and practice.

Since 2019, when I started teaching about algorithmic trading, I have witnessed institutions deliberately open positions against individual traders—known as counter trading—to manipulate markets for their gain. This reality spurred me into action; I began teaching sustainable and ethical trading techniques designed not just to avoid losses but to prepare individuals for worst-case scenarios. By fostering a mindset philosophy that embraces losses as part of the process rather than something to fear, I help students understand what is truly happening in the markets.

Ultimately, what inspires me is a vision where technology enriches our lives by deepening our understanding of ourselves while ensuring ethical standards guide our innovations. By prioritizing empathy and authenticity in technological development alongside responsible trading practices, I aim to contribute positively to society while fostering an environment dedicated to thoughtful decision-making.

At the heart of my work lies a profound conviction that technology should serve humanity. I believe that artificial intelligence must enhance human experiences rather than replace them. This means developing systems that understand context, nuance, and the depth of real conversations—transforming interactions into meaningful exchanges rather than sterile transactions.

Cultural integrity is paramount in this pursuit. AI should respect the diverse beliefs, values, and identities of those who engage with it. It is essential that technology does not become homogenized or stripped down to generic responses; instead, it must celebrate the richness of human experience by reflecting the unique perspectives of individuals and communities.

In parallel with my work in AI, I am equally passionate about teaching sustainable and ethical trading practices. The intersection between AI and trading is where my two visions converge most powerfully. Ethical trading is not merely about picking winners or losers; it centers on establishing high standards through sustainable real-world practices. This includes considerations such as position sizes, algorithmic techniques, and robust risk mitigation strategies designed to protect one’s capital.

I firmly believe that traders have a responsibility to engage with financial markets in ways that prioritize integrity and respect for both themselves and their communities. Sustainable trading goes beyond profit; it encompasses a deep understanding of market dynamics and its participants—fostering an environment where education is paramount.

The integration of AI into trading practices enhances this commitment to ethics by providing tools for informed decision-making based on data-driven insights while promoting responsible practices within our communities. By leveraging advanced algorithms alongside sound educational principles, we can navigate complexities with greater awareness.

Ethics are foundational to both my technological endeavors and my approach to trading education. I am committed to creating AI systems that respect privacy, avoid bias, and operate transparently while instilling these same principles in aspiring traders through my teachings. Integrity is non-negotiable; I refuse to cut corners or compromise on ethical standards because trust is essential for fostering genuine relationships—whether between humans and machines or among traders within their communities.

As I reflect on my journey in AI and technology, I find that teaching and sharing knowledge has become an integral part of my mission. Through platforms like Jackrabbit TV, I have dedicated myself to guiding aspiring traders through the complexities of financial markets. My workshops and training sessions emphasize not only the mechanics of trading but also the importance of understanding market psychology and developing a disciplined mindset. By fostering an environment where questions are welcomed and curiosity is encouraged, I empower my students to navigate their trading journeys with confidence.

In tandem with my teaching endeavors, I have channeled my coding expertise into creating innovative tools such as Jackrabbit Relay—an open-source framework designed for seamless automated trading execution across various exchanges. Developing algorithms and automated systems allows me to simplify decision-making processes for traders at all levels while promoting ethical practices within our community. By leveraging programming languages and frameworks, I craft solutions that enable users to execute trades effortlessly while maintaining full control over their strategies.

Through both teaching and coding, I aim to cultivate a community of informed traders who prioritize ethical and sustainable practices in their pursuits. The financial world can be daunting; however, with proper guidance from platforms like Jackrabbit TV and robust tools like Jackrabbit Relay at their disposal, anyone can learn to harness its potential responsibly.
