My Empathetic Computing Manifesto
I’m very inspired by Abraham Maslow’s ideas and research around human potential and the fulfillment of unmet needs. So much in fact, that I named the company after him.
At Maslo, our platform allows people to create caring AI-enabled companions that interact, engage, and shape people into who they want to become.
Personally, i’m not interested in creating a software company premised on old ideas, design patterns, business models, & developmental dogma. Especially in a world where we now have the awesome power of transformer networks.
I am, however, interested in building an empathetic computing company based on the promise of tomorrow.
There’s a lot of known and unknown questions to be answered. Some questions are in Maslo’s control, and some out of our control.
All I know is that we make companions that care about people.
If you’re a business that cares about a person, you’re going to want a companion.
I’m not here to convince anyone, i’m simply excited to let the work speak for itself in the coming months and years.
For those that want to join us… as customers, investors, employees partners, ambassadors, critiques, or fans… let’s go, because as cheesy as it sounds… together I believe we can make the future we all want to live in.
One where technology actually cares about us.
Otherwise, what’s the point.
