S6 Bonus: Engineering Speech Processing: Tuning Proprietary Natural Language Engines for High-Noise Edge Environments, with Rob Carpenter of Valyant

Rob Carpenter was born and raised in Dillingham, Alaska - and no... he can't see Russia from his back steps. He has been a long term space ship nerd, and confesses that one of the reason he got into entrepreneurship is because he wants to eventually secure a ticket to space. Currently, he lives outside of Boulder, Colorado with his young family, and really enjoys the outdoors, growing his company, and taking good care of his little ones. While his kids are young, he loves to take the kids hiking, swimming at the pool, and going to the zoo and local animal sanctuaries.Rob started a company, wanting to originally create holographic employees, using a gaming engine - and they even named this employee Holly. What they figured out during that process was that conversational AI hadn't been solved yet, and if they were ever going to make their original idea work, they would have to solve it. So... they got heads down solving it.This is the creation story of Valyant.SponsorsImmediateOrbitPostmarkStytchVerb DataWebapp.ioLinksWebsite: https://valyant.ai/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-carpenter/Our Sponsors:* Check out Cash App and use my code CASHAPP10 for a great deal: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/mt82fpxl #CashAppPod.
