Because I knew how to do it, and because I had existing clients that needed my AI, data, and design services. For a person who just got laid off, that seemed like a sound choice.

While working with my clients, I continuously observed a massive gap in perception of AI, in general, as a whole. AI DEVELOPER and AI CONSUMER see and consume all things AI very differently. Educating consumers also became too tiresome quickly. </p> <p>As AI tools progressed, it turned out that clients WANT to see how the “AI sausage” is made. They want to observe and learn how I prompt AI, and my customers really want to correct me. Clients want to classify or process data in unimaginable ways because clients know their #business, and I do not. </p> <p>That is when the whole idea behind Tunc.AI, Tunc Hub, Tunc Orb, Art, and many other of my products became crystal clear.</p> <p>I want the client to be a co-driver in my development process. Whether it is agent code development, requirements writing, or presentation creation... these activities do not need to be done individually anymore. Silos? Gone.</p> <p>Doing consulting together with AI, observed by your client-collaborators, bouncing prompts around like little ping-pongs… THIS is where my clients get their 10x AI growth. It is in collaboration. It is in co-creating, together. As humans do.</p> ai productivity startup webdev
