Hello, Angels!

The month of April absolutely flew by and things are starting to get really heated up in our development lab! 

Our team of human members have been quickly growing and we’re still looking for more talented individuals from all walks of life to join our mission to create amazing and interactive AI beings! 

If you’ve been waiting for our latest Roundup, then wait no longer – here we go!

Welcoming New Humans!

Ever since our appearance at the SXSW 2022, we have been receiving an overwhelming demand for AI beings as real-time interactive interfaces for contents and service experiences.

As such, we have been rapidly expanding our team, and we are excited to introduce two of the newest HUMAN team members to join the beingAI family!

Simon has over 15 years’ experience in technology development and management in some of the biggest names in the tech industry, including IBM, and he has previously co-founded a tech startup developing natural language processing (NLP) systems.

Geoffrey Carr-Harris – Geoffrey is joining the beingAI team as an AI Content Manager, where he will be using his insights and breadth of life experiences to enrich the personality and stories of our AI beings. Geoffrey is a lifelong media and entertainment veteran, and he has built a successful career as a writer, entrepreneur and business leader in the industry.
