Profile bio
About Chris Jones
My expertise is building from zero to one. For the last 10 years, I've been working at startups in the areas of AI, machine learning, big data, and infrastructure. Since dropping out of the CS Ph.D program at Berkeley, I've been on a journey of designing systems of increasing scope: starting from deep technical problems early in my career, to now building teams and defining product & business strategy.I love to make things that other people think are impossible. In grad school, I published research on automated synthesis of high-perf parallel algorithms (15 years before LLMs). At Mozilla, I created a mobile operating system that was built around the core of the "old, bloated, slow" Firefox desktop browser, that we got running on the lowest-end $30 smartphones. My first startup exited to Apple after pushing the boundaries of deep learning on embedded devices. I built an AI dog-training robot in months, and an AI-enabled GPU-accelerated Chrome browser running in the cloud.My current mission at DeepStructure is to make every enterprise company an expert AI development shop, via our platform and services that make it as easy to build customized, specialized, and self-improving AI workflows as it is to build a web app. If you're running into a wall in trying to build your generative AI features in-house, drop us a line at hello@deepstructure.io!
