# Robin Gustafsson

> AI developer, building toward mind uploading.

I build AI systems and tools, and study the brain that I want to one day reprogram. I founded The Uploading Lab, an AI-native research lab that turns published connectomes into digital brains that run, starting with the fruit fly.
