Yeah, absolutely.
I I started my career as an offshore oil driller and had a problem while working on the rig, told myself how to code, built a product, got acquired, became a software a little over twenty years ago.
And uh it's just a sequence of chasing problems.
It's it's it's been very, very straightforward.
It's always been I have a problem, I need to solve it, let's figure out how to solve it, or I have a problem, I don't like what I'm doing, I need to find a way to make it go away and automate it.
So let's build something to do that.
Yeah, I wouldn't I wouldn't call it entrepreneur.
I I know I don't wouldn't know if I call it intrapreneurial.
I'd call it basically out of a a strong desire to not do the work I have to do, but I need to do.
But I have to do it.
So you could find it an easy way to do it.
Let's see.
I was at Oracle, McKinsey, Amazon, Scale, and then Pearl.
Yeah, the the problem we're trying to solve is teaching current AI models.
very nuanced niche skills.
The reality is the models that exist today, they are great at generic problems or generic understanding of language or generic medicine and so on and so forth.
And the more specific the problem gets, the more difficult and the more struggle that the more that the model struggles to actually respond and respond accurately.
So in medical niche use cases, for example, models will make more mistakes than if you ask a generic stuff of, oh, I have a headache.
Should I take Advil or Tylenol?
Right.
