The Internet has always been a shape-shifter. At first it was a place for humans to publish and read static pages. Then it became a platform for apps, video, and interactive experiences. Now, as artificial intelligence models consume more and more of what we produce online, the web is mutating again.

We’re entering an era of the dual Internet: one version built for people, another built for machines.

The Human Web

Humans love design, storytelling, and images. A good website isn’t just information—it’s a narrative with rhythm, hierarchy, and personality. My own site is no exception: it’s a living resume, a portfolio of analytics work, and a digital handshake for anyone who wants to understand me and my work in public safety, technology, and AI.

This is the Seen Browser—the layer of the web optimized for human eyes.

The Robot Web

But there’s another kind of visitor on every page: the machine. Search engine crawlers, AI models, and automated agents don’t care about typography or layout. They want clean data. They want JSON, Markdown, APIs, and semantic markup.

As AI assistants become the primary way people “visit” the web, we need to start building machine-facing versions of our sites. This could be as simple as a llms.txt file that points AI tools to curated Markdown content, or as structured as a public API exposing data in JSON. Companies like Anthropic and Cloudflare are already experimenting with this, and SEO strategists are calling it the next frontier: making sure AI agents can understand your work as well as people can.

Why I’m Doing Both

For me, this isn’t just a technical exercise. It’s a statement about how I see the Internet evolving. By maintaining a human version of my site and a robot version, I’m acknowledging two audiences at once. Both are real. Both matter. Both deserve clarity.

On the human side, you’ll find polished writing, visuals, and context. On the robot side, you’ll find structured data, simplified text, and a direct map of my work and expertise. The toggle between them is more than a UI trick—it’s a philosophical nod to the Internet’s split personality.

What Comes Next

Will this duality last? Some argue that it’s a stopgap—that AI models will soon be able to parse messy HTML as easily as humans. Others believe it’s inevitable, that just as we once had to design mobile-first, we now need to design AI-first.

I don’t know where it will land. What I do know is this: by building for both humans and machines, I’m future-proofing my presence online and making a small statement about where the Internet is heading.

So, welcome. Explore this site as a person. Or flip the switch and see it through a robot’s eyes. Either way, you’ll find me.
