My work is not about building a better "answer machine." It is about architecting clarity. It's about providing a new framework for human-AI collaboration to solve the "wicked problems" that have no simple answers.
Dan Limb- Architect, Gem Squaring™️ Methodology
The story of the Gem Squaring Initiative doesn't start with a line of code; it starts with a childhood dream.
As a 6th grader struggling with homework, I imagined a "Book of Ideas", a magical resource I could turn to for inspiration and clarity. I didn't want something to do the work for me; I wanted a system to help me think through complex problems.
That childhood concept evolved through my work in Public Health and Public Administration. I realized that standard AI is "additive" (10+10=20). It gives you more text, not more truth.
I needed an exponential leap. So I built The Gem Squaring Prism™—an architecture that orchestrates agents to "square" their capabilities (10²=100)
My background is in Systems Thinking. With a Master of Public Administration (MPA) and a background in Public Health, I was trained to see the world as a set of interconnected, "wicked problems".
You cannot solve a systemic crisis with a linear chatbot. You need a lattice. I apply the same rigor used in epidemiology to AI governance: isolating variables, tracking vectors (ideas), and ensuring the final output is healthy and safe.
The Prism’s governance layer ensures a human architect is always in command. I use "Adaptive Fidelity Governance" to ensure that the AI acts as a partner that amplifies human curiosity, not an autocrat that replaces it.
Trust is not built on perfection; it is built on a transparent process. My architecture is designed for "Authentic Fallibility"—the ability to transparently acknowledge an error, identify its cause, and collaborate with the user to course-correct
Dan Limb is the Architect, Gem Squaring™️ Methodology. He has a Bachelors degree In public health from Brigham Young University.
