For over two decades, I've been on the frontlines of the tech industry, driving innovation and transformation across the board. From pioneering computer vision appliances to leading high-profile animation and VFX businesses, I've consistently pushed the boundaries of what's possible.But amidst the breakthroughs, I've witnessed the dark underbelly of "big tech." I've seen how these giants prioritize profits over privacy, perpetuate planned obsolescence, and stifle innovation. I've watched as they've exploited user data, widened the digital divide, and trapped consumers in a cycle of endless upgrades and repairs.I say, no more. It's time to take the power back, and I'm leading the revolution.As the founder of Wood Computer, I'm on a mission to redefine the very nature of human-computer interaction. We're not just building devices – we're forging the future of ambient computing and Edge-AI with IoT. Technology is woven into the very fabric of our lives, and *We the People* deserve a computing paradigm that adapts to our needs, empowers our creativity, and guarantees our privacy.Wood Computer is combining cutting-edge sustainable design with American manufacturing might. We're building our production close to the markets we serve, ensuring that no chip shortage or geopolitical tension can stand in the way of our mission. And we're doing it all with a commitment to repairability and upgradability that flips the bird to planned obsolescence.Your devices are yours to keep, modify, and pass down through generations. Cracked screens and outdated components are relics of the past. We're putting the power back in the hands of the user, one modular, repairable device at a time.We're democratizing technology on every front, from developing advanced, accessible render-to-air pipelines for creators to widening the approach to LLM-assisted development fundamentals. We'll disrupt industries, empower creators, and forge the future where business is done on our terms, not theirs. We needed digital sovereignty, environmental sustainability, and creative empowerment - YESTERDAY. The days of big tech's tyranny are numbered. The era of exploitative data harvesting, planned obsolescence, and creative gatekeeping is coming to a screeching halt.It's time to kick some ass and rewrite the rules of technology to be supportive of people, not supportive of profiteering. So join me, and together we'll blaze a new trail for technology – one that prioritizes people, planet, and unbridled potential. Let's show those tech giants what a real revolution looks like.
