I've recently teamed up with a sufficiently differentiated AI venture based out of UC Berkeley's AI research center called Narada, co founded by Amir Gholami and David Park. Below is an example of my favorite use case as the in-person networking/conference and event season is upon us McGuireWoods LLP #ACG. Anyone that thinks email is going to stay the same in 10 years, stop reading this now. AI is going to be how seamless it integrates with our lives and the fastest way to get that done is through texting or speaking. Below I met a new contact at a Las Vegas event and instead of exchanging business cards or adding him to a long list of folks that may or may not get followed up with - I texted Narada to email him, write a quick intro, send my availability, and in less 10 seconds, it's coordinated, planned and done... The workflow is simple - 1) Text (or use microphone/speaker function) Narada to email Fernando Delgado with some sort of context about where or how we met. 2) Narada comes back with a draft of an email. 3) I can either send, edit, or cancel. 4) It can also create a calendar/Zoom invite with action items and add the new contact to your CRM. Narada is an AI company based on groundbreaking new research from UC Berkeley called the LLM Compiler.  Narada enables everyone in the enterprise to talk to their data and tools, using the LLM Compiler to automate complex workflows that require planning, orchestration, and execution across diverse datasets/ecosystems.  By connecting traditionally siloed tools both internal and external to the enterprise, and making them operational through a simple natural language interface, our technology will change the way people work in the enterprise. Narada has built a world class team that includes: Co-Founder of Coverity which was bootstrapped out of the Stanford CS Labs and acquired for $375 Million UC Berkeley AI professor and former CTO of Synopsys UC Berkeley AI scientist with over 55 publications in top AI journals and conferences Top engineers from UC Berkeley, Meta, and Citadel Current and new investors in Narada include: Co-Founder of Databricks ($60 Billion company) Founder & CEO of Cloudera Founder & CEO of MIPS and Tensilica, and current executive in charge of AI at Cisco MIT EECS Professor  VC Investor who did the first due diligence on Google in 1998 Anyone interested in a demo, (seed) investment, or to learn more use cases, feel free to DM me with your email. I will use Narada to connect you directly to the Founders in less than 10 seconds.
