Christofer and entrepreneur Oliver Edholm speak about his road to becoming CEO of a major AI start-up (Depict) and meditation in this episode of Do Explain. They discuss Minecraft and programming, dropping out of high school, joining Y-combinator, AI-recommendation engines, why Depict is different from larger competitors, the role of emotions in decision-making, the four jhanas, Dzogchen, pointing-out instructions, and other related topics.
Oliver Edholm is a 20-year old high school dropout, and founder & CEO of Depict. Depict has raised $20M in funding, and employs 40 people at the company during the time of writing. He previously lived in Singapore where he conducted AI-research at the age of 16, and before that he worked as a Machine Learning Engineer at Klarna. Oliver is also a Thiel Fellow and is recognized by Forbes in their 30 Under 30 list.
