Dmitry Shapiro on AI's Future & Democratizing AI — Insights from a ex-Google & MySpace Music CTO

What's AI Podcast by Louis-François Bouchard

Check out MindStudio: https://bit.ly/MindStudioWhatsAI This is an interview with Dmitry Shapiro, previously working at Google and CTO of MySpace Music. Now, Dmitry is building something super ambitious with the goal of democratizing artificial intelligence. We talk about his platform, MindStudio, but also give super applicable tips to build better AI apps, such as the model selection, prompting, using RAG and more.

We also talk a lot about the user perspective, democratizing AI and the future of AI. Dmitry also has another goal of indexing the mind of everyone. And I for sure talked about that in this episode. I hope you enjoy it.
