Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays an increasingly significant role in our daily lives, from personalized content recommendations on Netflix to tailored experiences on social media.
Recognizing the importance of mastering this technology, initiatives are emerging to democratize access to AI and harness its potential.
One such initiative is Flipando.ai, a startup founded by economist Maia Brenner, aiming to make Uruguay the global leader in AI applications.
The idea for Flipando.ai came about during a birthday celebration, where Brenner and her colleagues discussed their AI projects.
Realizing that many people lacked knowledge about AI, Brenner created a platform enabling users to learn and create their digital projects.
Flipando.ai already has a team of seven and approximately 200 users, with several companies training their employees using the platform.
Flipando.ai’s approach emphasizes learning through hands-on creation.
Users are encouraged to build their own applications based on the strategies they learn on the platform. By fostering a collaborative community, Flipando.ai aims to generate high-impact AI solutions that can be shared and showcased.
One of the key technologies leveraged by Flipando.ai is generative AI, which employs algorithms, existing data, and natural language analysis to generate new content such as text, images, and music.
Generative AI enables users to create novel and innovative applications by interpreting and understanding various data sources.
Currently in beta testing, Flipando.ai plans to release the final version of its platform by the end of the year.
The goal is to provide access to AI training and empower more individuals to create their own AI applications quickly and efficiently.
Brenner envisions a future where Uruguay becomes the country with the highest number of AI applications and builders per capita, with an estimated 3 million applications generated from the country.
With Flipando.ai’s efforts to democratize AI education and empower users to become creators, Uruguay aims to establish itself as a global leader in AI applications, contributing to this transformative technology’s widespread adoption and understanding.
