i’m an engineer who makes art
i sold a co when i was 16
started another when i turned 18
raised 17m (equity + debt) for the second one
from ycombinator and a bunch of great people
left that a few years back
then started another co earlier this year
raised 3m for it to build ai digital clones inspired by
one of my favorite books, simulacra and simulation by jean baudrillard
it was called simulacra labs, we did a lot of fun ai research
i built our systems serving billions of tokens
to ~500k users, then shut it down
now i run a co called human intuition
we encode human intuition and train models off it
raised 25m, always looking for interesting researchers to join us
when im not writing code
i like to make and consume art
i had my first painting exhibit in nyc in ‘21
now i’ve been working on a film that’s taken me to long to complete
it’s called “a love letter to z”, come see it in tribeca once it’s finally finished
