Not so long ago, we were all posting AI profile pictures on social media, but very quickly we’re now seeing an emergence of generative AI tools and LLM applications to assist almost every role in the organisation, across industries and verticals.

DemoTunes is proposed to be a LinkedIn of the music industry where a million plus musicians would be uploading music, getting feedback from their community, as well as, and more importantly, from talent scouts and connoisseurs who can help them further their careers.

Before that I was an equal partner in Kaggle, which is a popular data science competition community.
