Welcome to my self-writing autobiography!
I'm Massimo Albarello. I came to the world in 1998 in the beautiful town of Como, and I've since lived in San Francisco, Zurich, and now London.
If anything here resonates, here is how to reach me.
I love building things
Here is a list of the things I built so far and the best are yet to come.
My dream is to build something that will stand the test of time — and positively impact as many people as possible along the way. So far, I miserably failed at it but I'll continue trying.
I love building at the intersection of two ideas:
- Ubiquitous computing
- The best technologies are the ones that disappear into the fabric of everyday life.
- Digital sovereignty
- Technology should guarantee freedom and ownership to the individual.
These two trends have shaped what I've done throughout my life: specializing in consensus algorithms for distributed systems, building Omnia, and more recently Fabric.
Nothing fits at the intersection of ubiquitous computing and digital sovereignty better than personal AI agents — systems that know you deeply and work proactively on your behalf. The time of Jarvis has finally come, and I want to help everyone get their own!
Self-writing autobiography
I'm fascinated by the idea that everything around us was once somebody's idea.
That's why I love reading biographies of people who changed the world: to understand what the world was like before they came to be, and how they went about creating a better version of it.
This is my self-writing autobiography. I'd love for it to one day be useful to someone, the way many other biographies have been useful to me. I believe each one of us has a story to tell, and I want to make it easy for everyone to do so. This is why I'm doing this.
Now that I have some time behind me, I'm starting to look back and try connecting the dots. Have a look at the chapters of my life so far.
P.S. Everything here is LLM generated but personally curated. I review and edit every page before publishing, so what you are reading is not slop.
