ABYSIUS TEAM
The Abysius Founders: Real people working to make sure AI works for us
There was a promise made about the future: advancement would lead to happier, freer, more supported lives. The computer would become a companion, assistant, and sidekick that helps harmonize the day to day. Robotics, automation, and AI systems would take on drudgery and alleviate busy work so we would have more time for living.
Our team gathered from across the country, aiming to fulfill the future’s promise, and together founded Abysius Inc.
