Cog Wars is live: our first game, free in your browser
cogwarsgame.com is live, and with it v0.0.1: the first playable build of Cog Wars, a top-down twin-stick arcade shooter set in an omniverse woven from golden cogs. What the game is, what you can play today, and what is still coming.
AI Detection for Narrowband (8 kHz μ-law) Telephony Spam and Spoof-Call Blocking
A survey of AI methods for detecting spam and spoofed calls on narrowband 8 kHz μ-law (G.711) telephony. No published anti-spoofing equal-error-rate is measured on native 8 kHz audio, and the best acoustic results do not transfer to narrowband or to the dominant attack: voice changers on genuine voice. The defensible architecture is emergent from layer composition: a Boolean core of behavioral metadata plus STIR/SHAKEN, with acoustic detection demoted to a post-call signal.
Deep-Research Agent Architecture: Graph Runtime, Checkpointing, Governance, and Benchmarks
A production deep-research agent can outperform human research teams when engineered around machine-native strengths: massive parallel fan-out, tireless tool-use loops, perfect recall, and deterministic replay. This is the architecture pillar — it owns the checkpointed graph runtime, the typed source/evidence/claim data model, role fan-out and fan-in, replay, adversarial source screening, human gates, and benchmarks — and cross-links to its companion for the retrieval and verification math.
