C Thi Nguyen
C Thi Nguyen is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Utah and author of The Score: How to Stop Playing Someone Else's Game. He specializes in the philosophy of games, freedom, and how quantified metrics reshape human values. His work examines the tension between living by principles versus algorithmic rules, and how modern life has become systematically oriented toward measurable proxies at the expense of unmeasurable goods.
