Today on the show of Nissan Yaron, he's the founder and CEO of Humains. Welcome, Nissan. Hi, John. Thank you. Yeah. So Humains had a fairly interesting story. You guys were doing work inside of cars, right? To add AI to cars and then kind of expand it out of that. Why don't you tell me that story?

Yeah. So Humains came out of Enpress, which... I was working on an in-car assistant for a while, since 2018.

Startup Show: How HumAIns created a human-like chatbot

"We train small models when we need to do it. We can do it on on-premise solutions, but we can also use state-of-the-art LLMs."

In this episode of Grit Daily Startup Show, host John Biggs sat down with Nissan Yaron, the CEO of Inpris, the creator of HumAIns.

Initially focused on enhancing car infotainment systems through AI, HumAIns has expanded its vision to a broader range of applications, propelling the company into the forefront of AI-driven autonomous systems and agents.

The company developed a system combining voice assistants and finger gestures to interact with cars’ infotainment systems more safely and effectively, a development that was particularly crucial because traditional interfaces like touchscreens and smartphones tend to pose safety risks while driving.

However, the major breakthrough for HumAIns came later, with the adoption of OpenAI’s GPT-3 technology in 2021. After gaining early access to GPT-3, HumAIns adeptly utilized this large language model (LLM) to revolutionize how AI could operate within an infotainment interface.
