A cartoon image of the head and shoulders of a boxer breed dog, wearing legal tabs as a collar, and with half-moon spectacles on his nose.
Image of a prototypical Blawx web app interface. On the left there is a tool for running and seeing the results of various tests organized into folders. On the right there is a top panel with multiple tabs, the open tab showing section 4 of a piece of legislation, with subsection (b) highlighted. In the bottom panel there is a single tab showing a proposed revised version of the Blawx visual coding environment.

A Sankey diagram of things moving between the categories of impossible, hard, and easy from before AI to after AI. There is a thin flow from impossible to easy. The hard to easy flow is wider, and labeled "everyone else". The Impossible to hard flow is equally wide, and labeled "§Blawx".
Screen shot of a Claude session in which a user asks Claude to retry an attempt to read the contents of a Blawx project, and it does so, finding the contains three pieces of legislation.

Image of a finished puzzle depicting a mountain scene. The pieces of the puzzle are not standard puzzle piece shapes, but evoke the art they display. Pieces with water have wavey edges. Pieces depicting sky have cloud-like edges. Some pieces or combinations of pieces are cut in shapes of birds, fish, rock climbers, quick connects, etc. edges of the pieces sometimes follow the edges of objects in the art, like a pine tree, or where the mountain meets the sky. The art is a print of an Acrylic painting by Sharon Lynn Williams of Waskashigan Watchi in the background of Vermillion Lakes in Alberta, Canada.
A screen shot of a chat with ChatGPT 5.2 inside the GitHub CoPilot extension for VS Code, in which the agent is using a Blawx encoding to explain why a given output is expected in a given fact scenario that has to do with procurement rules in the Government. Ultimately, the agent replies "From the Blawx run of question id 59 ("is there a violation with regard to a contract") using facts that match your scenario, the reasoner produces a proof tree showing a violation because DMP Section 4.6 / 4.6.1 / 4.6.1.1 requires Treasury Board approval when the estimated value exceeds the entity's non-competitive basic contracting limit, and that approval must occur before the contract is entered into."
A transcript of a VS Code coding agent session discussing the Blawx tools it is going to use and how it is going to use the responses to generate hypothesis property tests, and showing it making several calls to the Blawx server over an MCP server.

A concentric circle diagram. The centre is labeled "self", and there is an arrow pointing away from the center labeled "other". In the center is a large green area, with a smaller yellow ring outside that, and the rest of the image is white. The legend labels green as "people the left and right love", white as "people the left and right don't love", and the smaller yellow ring between as "not worth killing over".

In a still frame from Christmas Vacation the character Uncle Lewis is in a suit standing in front of a still burning skeleton of a Christmas tree, holding a lit cigar. In the background to his right, the outline of a cat with splayed legs and tail is burned into the carpet. An arrow is drawn to indicate the cat mark.

The middle house has a candy covered roof, cotton candy smoke coming from a chimney, and a guitar over the door. The right house has a nest walk made of stone candies, a snow drift in the right side that covers the roof, and a log pile made of pretzel sticks.
