I was part of the founding team at fibertime™, now serving hundreds of thousands of customers across South Africa. After leaving, I built Purple Dorm, an AI consultancy, to get a firsthand account of how businesses were thinking about AI, the problems they were encountering, and how we could use models to solve them.
I'm now working on Verascient, where we're tackling one of AI’s biggest unsolved problems: hallucination.
On the side, I’ve been writing on and off for five years. I like Henrik Karlsson’s take that “a blog post is a very long and complex search query to find fascinating people and make them route interesting stuff to your inbox”. This site is where I send off those queries.
If you think we might have an interesting conversation, for example, if you know the origins of the name Purple Dorm, drop me a note.
