"We spent seventy years teaching machines to think. The next fifty will be about teaching them to help us feel, without pretending to feel themselves."

Jean's engineering philosophy is augmentation, not substitution. The products he builds at 3.2.1 émotion, Inc. are designed to raise a person's emotional capacity rather than replace their judgment. That distinction shapes the architecture of the .emo file format, the feelmoji® engine, and the émoDNA matching layer.

Sciences Po graduate and systems architect with 20+ years spanning CIO, CTO, and CPO roles. Jean translates affective science into shipping infrastructure at émo labs and leads the engineering that powers émo messenger and alter émo.
