Polymathes: How To Convert Perception...

☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆

Polymathes is Martin Tobias Lithner’s field manual for building a "firm" that thinks.

Refusing the splits between data, strategy, and software, Lithner designs an organization as a living mind: metabolism for signal, ledgers for memory and incentives, a lattice for attention, a twin for consequence, a planner for choice, and an arithmetic for invention. The result is a complete operating system for converting perception into advantage under constraint.

You’ll learn to measure intelligence with MRI (assimilated signal vs. waste), tax hidden fragility with CVAT (Complexity VAT), trade permission on a Constraint Exchange, and choose rollouts via a Path Integral of Strategy that prices cost, complexity, compliance, and information gain—at a cultural “temperature” that you set. An AI Autopilot of specialized agents (Metabolist, Treasurer, Strategist, Auditor, and more) runs Decision APIs, drafts code and memos, simulates consequences in the Twin, and posts receipts to ledgers so learning compounds.

This is high-signal speculation, engineered for practice: deletion as a profit center; constraints as markets; invention as operators you can rehearse. Written by a modern polymath in the classical sense, Polymathes translates conserved structure across disciplines and prices the error of translation.

Read it to replace dashboards with decisions, opinions with priced physics, and projects with a portfolio of moves that pay their own constraint and complexity bills.
