Gugen

Research

A research institute concerned with how a person's judgment, attention, self-image and skill change after working with AI — not with model benchmarks. e-Rad registration completed in August 2026. There is no efficacy data yet. What the lab produces belongs to Gugen, Inc. and ships as business.

The research director who oversees quality, method and ethics is currently vacant, and we are recruiting for the role. Until that outside scrutiny is in place, we make no external claims about our findings. Researchers interested in the position are welcome to get in touch.

Project 01

Preparing

15-minute isolation with AI voice dialogue

An egg-shaped space that shuts out sound and light for 15 minutes, with AI voice dialogue. Hardware and the dialogue system exist. No human-subject experiment has been run. Hardware fabrication is paused until measurement procedures are fixed. There is no efficacy data yet.

What we are designing

  1. 01

    Light & Sound Isolation

    A structure that shuts out external light and sound

  2. 02

    Biometric Sensing

    Sensing for brainwaves and other biometric data, currently in design

  3. 03

    AI Voice Dialogue

    An in-space AI dialogue system. Demonstrable

  4. 04

    Human-subject trials

    None yet. Ethics-board access comes first

Project 02

In talks

Hydroponic production site

Sensing and control for light, EC, climate, CO2 and water exist. Partner terms are still in negotiation; this is not a signed joint study.
