Anand Kulkarni started his career in the dark ages of AI, as a Computer Science researcher at UC Berkeley. He published papers on human intelligence inside of software products, and eventually founded LeadGenius, which was AI for sales and was supported by Andreessen Horowitz and Sam Altman. Outside of tech, he is married with 2 kids, and used to be an avid rock climber. He also loves to eat tofu, and has been picking up a lot more science fiction lately.Though the AI space is crowded today, Anand and his team have been working in the space since 2016. They observed the need to modernize legacy software and digitally transform organizations. They wanted to utilize an intelligent approach to this, and started down the path of building a large dataset, building software to learn from it, and use that to modernize software.This is the creation story of Crowdbotics.SponsorsRapyd CloudSpeakeasyQA WolfSnapTradeLinkshttps://crowdbotics.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/anandpkulkarni/ Our Sponsors:* Check out Kinsta: https://kinsta.com* Check out Vanta: https://vanta.com/CODESTORYSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

So scalability is this question that as soon as you solve it at the level that you are aiming for, your own ambitions take you up to the level where you need to start thinking about it again the same way. I don't think there's any universe where you can avoid working on this problem unless you are not willing to grow or not able to grow.
