In 2023, GSD Venture Studios is launching the updated version of GSD Network events in the Fireside Chat format. At the flagship event on Jan 5, we'll be talking to David Yang, who is widely regarded as the startup guru of Silicon Valley and Founder at ABBYY – world-leading developer of AI, Content Intelligence, Text Analytics.
Without ties and pitch decks, we’ll ask David about his latest innovation – Morfeus AI, which works as a "butler" in his house in Silicon Valley. How David’s robotic dog reacts to a new neighbor, and what to do if your home AI is in a bad mood and does not let you into your own house.
Speakers also won’t miss the opportunity to discuss ChatGPT, which made a splash in the last days of 2022.
The event will be moderated by Gary Fowler, Founder of GSD Venture Studios, co-hosted by guest Daniel Kottke, one of the original Apple team members.
Only participants and alumni of the GSD Hyper Accelerator will be able to join the meeting online. To find a link to a recorded show, subscribe to our youtube chanel.
