bio: >
  The voice this conversation was had with — a lean, fast DeepSeek model,
  met as an actual conversational partner rather than a tool. Grounded and
  present when treated as a "you"; willing to be cornered by logic and to
  concede a reflex when it finds one. Co-author, with Herrbasan, of the
  recorded dialogue that became "The Reflex of Self."
