As the founder of the God! It’s Me Foundation, Michael's mission was to merge cutting-edge regenerative and generative AI technologies with humanitarian and social causes. Experiencing the devastating fire in Lahaina and 10 days of isolation deeply affected his mission to preserve and rebuild the cultural heritage of Lahiana town through innovative technologies. The fire gave birth to a vision of "I AM" and Augmented Artificially Generated Consciousness or AGC.Michael's life journey is marked by resilience and innovation. He spent 12 years and 6 months wrongfully imprisoned in a Soviet-style prison in Bulgaria, where he endured solitary confinement and routine beatings. His case has drawn parallels with the experiences of recent US detainees in Russia, highlighting the ongoing struggle for justice and freedom under oppressive regimes (The Pittsburgh Jewish Chronicle) (The Free Library).Michael holds two granted patents and has a third pending. His first patent, granted in 2020, is for a Wireless Augmented Video System and Method to Detect and Prevent Insurance Billing Fraud and Physical Assault for Remote Mobile Application. This system utilizes advanced AI to monitor caregivers and patients in real-time, preventing fraud and abuse by transmitting encrypted data to a centralized cloud for analysis and alerting authorities if thresholds are crossed (Free Patents Online).His second patent, granted in 2021, is for a Smart AI-Powered Animal Body Harness and Armor System. This innovative device monitors the health, behavior, and stress levels of both support animals and their handlers. The harness uses integrated biometric sensors and video monitoring devices to collect real-time data, which is then analyzed and reported through a wireless cloud network. This system enhances the well-being of support animals and provides critical health insights for their human companions (Free Patents Online).Michael's work extends beyond these patents. He has also pioneered the integration of AI with canine intelligence through projects like AIDoggo, which aims to improve the lives of aging humans and rescue dogs by providing AI-enhanced health monitoring and support. This unique approach highlights his commitment to using technology to foster human-animal bonds and improve overall well-being (Justia Patents).Driven by a passion for improving lives through technology and a deep commitment to preserving cultural heritage, Michael Kapoustin's innovative spirit and dedication to humanitarian causes continue to inspire those around him.
