My AI tooling reviews and technical deep dives are sought after by investors and operators. I'm a highly sought-after expert on leading consultation networks (AlphaSights, Guidepoint, Tegus, GLG, Coleman), regularly advising hedge funds and PE firms evaluating AI infrastructure, developer tools, and cloud platforms.
The slides for the Cowork workshop were built with Claude's help and Nano Banana (Gemini's image generation API). I use the tools I talk about.
