Following the publication of Conjecture Institute’s first book—The Sovereign Child, by Aaron Stupple with Logan Chipkin (me)—we have announced a few of our first Fellows over on X.
Conjecture Institute is financially supporting these individuals in their various creative endeavors. Some of them hope to write books in their respective fields, and of course we hope to publish them in-house. But…one thing at a time.
You can support our Fellows as well over at www.conjectureinstitute.org at just the press of a button.
Meet our first batch of Fellows:
Arjun Khemani
Arjun is a high school dropout who launched and helped lead support at Naval Ravikant's Airchat. He is currently creating a documentary about our deepest theory of knowledge. Check out the first three chapters of Arjun's documentary:
Carlos De la Guardia
Carlos is an AGI researcher with a background in robotics and longevity. He's writing a book explaining how human minds are uniquely, cosmically powerful, and how we can upgrade them to achieve immortality.
Check out one of his explainer videos here:
Maria Violaris
Maria is host of the Quantum Foundations Podcast and growing a YouTube channel on quantum science and tech, with plans to include thermodynamics and spacetime.
Maria is also writing a popular science book to demystify quantum science and technology.

Speaking of Rat Fest, we’ll be announcing the ticket page and date for Rat Fest 2025 very soon. We already have one sponsor (thanks, Sablier). The more funds we have for Rat Fest, the more we can subsidize attendees’ travels—people traditionally fly in from Europe, Australia, and every corner of the USA. If you’d like to sponsor Rat Fest 2025, email me at logan@conjectureinstitute.org.
Cheers,
Logan
