Martin, chatting with the folks at TechCrunch, kept her cards close to her chest but hinted that the new venture would be all about the everyday Joe, stressing how the crew wanted to whip up something that taps into cutting-edge AI models to create something practical for the average bear.
“As the top dog AI models and their capabilities continue to expand, we need thoughtful products to make this tech’s perks accessible, handy, and crystal-clear for regular folks — so our team is going all-in on crafting a user-centered AI product,” she explained.
Martin also let slip that this newborn startup is just starting to take its first wobbly steps and hasn’t kicked off any funding rounds yet né?. Nonetheless she mentioned that “the love from outside of Google (from our fellow founders investors academics and folks eager to jump on board) has been amazing and it’s really hyped up our small squad.”
