Here’s what I’ve been up to over the past few weeks to build my startup: ✅ Reached out to 29 AI Engineers—80% were keen to chat and share insights ✅ Had in-depth conversations with 12 AI Engineers to really understand their day-to-day and the challenges they face ✅ Connected with 2 Talent Acquisition Managers to better understand the recruitment space ✅ Watched 6 videos from the Y Combinator "How to Build a Startup" series for solid startup fundamentals ✅ Studied several videos on AI to deepen my technical understanding I’ve built a solid foundation on the AI engineering space and will keep these conversations going. Next, I’m focusing on learning from AI recruiters to better understand the problem space. Excited to keep building! 🚀 #StartUp #AI #ML #Entrepreneurship #Recruitment #Founder
