GIACOMO MICELI

Computer Scientist, Inspiration Hunter, and Product Persona Grata in the Miami metropolitan area

As a full-stack product expert and start-up enthusiast, I have served on the boards of several IT companies for over a decade. I thrive in environments where products are built and honed, and where my cross-disciplinary thinking and diverse skills can be put to use.

My background in Classical Studies and Computer Science has allowed me to integrate values from the past with tools from the future. My current obsession is generative AI, particularly LLMs. The flexibility of language tied to the rigor of machines is yielding stupendous new powers and allows me to wear both my humanist and my CS hat at the same time.

Raised in Rome, Italy, I developed a passion for travel during my late teens and have since lived in numerous places throughout Europe, the US, and South America. As a result, I have learned a few Romance languages and discovered which foods to avoid in various countries. In the distant past, I drove tractors, was as an editor for online magazines, and produced short videos.

I enjoy surfing, skiing, and hiking, and firmly believe in the three A's: Amore, Arte and Apprendimento, which could be freely translated to "Cherish, Craft, and Curiosity".

Feel free to get in touch if you're working with generative AI, especially if you're utilizing open-source tools and models in a creative space.
