About

Ivan Iufriakov studies the philosophy of errors: what errors are, how failures emerge in complex systems, and whether dangerous combinations of conditions can be recognised before a major failure. He starts with the errors made by AI agents, beginning with AI coding agents. He lives in Charlotte, North Carolina.

This site holds his book in progress, his essays and, once he adopts them, research pages. The book is written in the open: each section is published as a numbered draft, and is to be revised in response to readers’ comments. Nothing in it has been tested yet, and each piece says what it does and does not establish.

[Ivan: two or three sentences on your background, in your own words; any number or achievement you state is yours to vouch for.]

Through his company, Mix Tools LLC, Ivan offers analysis of where and why AI agents make errors in a team’s workflow, and how to catch them. That work is described at mix.tools.
