In this episode, we sit down with David Park, the founder of Jenni.ai, a groundbreaking AI software startup revolutionizing the way college students and academics approach writing. From being a struggling college dropout battling cancer to the founder of a $30M company, David's journey is nothing short of inspirational.

David shares the origin of Jenni.ai, born from a chance encounter on a flight that led to his first business loan. Despite several ventures that didn't take off, the arrival of ChatGPT-3 marked a turning point, enabling Jenni.ai to fully leverage AI and eliminate the need for human writers.
