I've been interested in AI since my early years in tech. In 2019 a friend of mine was a researcher and developer at OpenAI, working on GPT-2. Through them I got into the researcher program testing the first GPT-3 APIs, well before ChatGPT was public.
Since then my team of developers and I have used AI every day, and it has changed how I interact with technology. We use it for things I could not have done alone a couple of years ago, some of them ridiculous.
My normal friends, founders, solopreneurs, lawyers, writers, people in finance and design, creators, asked me to help set up their systems. When I did, they saved 10+ hours a week and their output exploded in speed and quality. After a few weeks most of them said the same thing: why don't you sell this, or teach it.
To me that was a crazy idea. All I do in my free time is read about new developments to improve my own systems. I've read more research papers on AI in the last three years than papers of any kind in the previous thirty. And that is how we decided to build InnovLabs, with one of the very people I taught and built their first AI workflows with.
