We are taking a deep dive into AI from an investor’s perspective. Bob is a former SaaS CFO, and holds a master’s degree in computer science focusing on LLM’s and cyber security.

This episode offers a bird’s eye view of fundable models in AI, all the way down to hands-on advice on how to get AI models to work for a startup to improve product performance or reduce cost.

Bob offers some hands-on open-source alternatives to the big names. If you are interested in the rising stars of open source, be sure to read Oxx’s very own “Rising Stars of Open Source” Report (see below). The report highlights some of the most exciting software trends: notably the rise of generative AI and the rise of AI-enabling technologies and corresponding open source solutions ,e.g. agents, automation and novel database models.
