AI feels overwhelming.
There’s so much happening right now, but it’s not always clear what you could or should be doing with AI. That’s what Artificial Ignorance is for.
What is Artificial Ignorance?
Simple, practical explorations of AI companies and concepts that are important to know and interesting to read. Here are some examples:
Artificial Ignorance is not:
Dry, technical explanations of machine learning concepts
Hundreds of links to news stories that you’re never going to read
Breathless hype about why you’re falling behind in AI
If that sounds interesting to you, great! You might enjoy being a subscriber.
Who writes Artificial Ignorance?
I’m Charlie Guo, an author and entrepreneur based in California.
I’m a Stanford Computer Science graduate, with a focus on human-computer interaction and artificial intelligence. I’ve founded multiple startups, generated tens of millions in revenue, and received investments from programs like YCombinator and 500 Startups. For the last few years I’ve worked at the intersection of internet creators and e-commerce, giving me a firsthand look at AI’s impacts, both creative and commercial.
On the writing side, I’ve published Unscalable, a book of startup interviews, stories and lessons on the theme of “doing things that don’t scale.” My writing has also appeared in Wired. You can find me on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Product Hunt.
