Educated at UC Berkeley, Sam is also the author of a book on AI and the future of work, and his current mission is radical: to replace the need for software interfaces, dashboards, and even human co-founders with a voice-driven synthetic business partner that thinks, plans, and acts alongside you. His work sits at the intersection of artificial intelligence, human behavior, and the future of entrepreneurship — and offers a rare, practical look at what happens when AI stops being a tool and starts becoming a collaborator.
