AI models are more affordable and accessible than once thought.
25 startup companies have demonstrated that, with clever planning and YC’s support, creating and using AI models within three months is achievable. This revelation challenges the common belief that building AI technology is costly and reserved for well-established, wealthy businesses. Utilizing AI, startups have accomplished a variety of tasks such as generating music, planning proteins, forecasting the weather, and directing robots.
The startups achieved this by applying efficient tricks to reduce the need for extensive computation and the amount of data required. YC’s intention is to encourage upcoming entrepreneurs to explore AI technology for their ventures. Notable examples among these startup companies are Atmo, Deepgram, Diffuse Bio, EzDubs, Exa, Guide Labs, Osium AI, and Tavus. These examples reflect the potential for startups to adopt AI in novel and effective ways.
