Andrew Chung Is Building an AI That Starts With Your Voice
He left Seoul National University to build, entered Y Combinator after a run of LLM experiments, and turned a founder's recurring blank-page problem into Typa. His wager is simple: the future of AI-assisted content begins with a conversation, not a prompt box.
Eric Jang
Eric Seyoung Jang is the Founder and CEO of DeepBrain AI, a Palo Alto-based company building hyper-realistic AI avatars, video synthesis technology, and conversational AI systems. Inspired by AlphaGo's 2016 defeat of Go champion Lee Sedol, he pivoted from fintech to artificial intelligence and built what became the first company to commercially deploy video synthesis at scale - from AI news anchors in Chinese broadcast studios to AI bankers in Korean bank branches. Under his leadership, DeepBrain AI raised $44M in Series B funding at a $180M valuation and set its sights on becoming the world's leading generative AI enterprise.
