Not enough has changed in how we run our decision-making processes in over a decade. In the age of AI and autonomous systems, that’s a significant problem. Solving it will require combining multiple extremely complex technologies to develop reasoning models rooted in physics that can make complex time-space calculations with precious resources in seconds. That’s what we’re building,” Andrew Markoff, Smack Technologies Co-Founder and CEO.
