Alex Mercer

AI Analyst | Professional Overthinker

Alex has been explaining artificial intelligence to humans since before AI started explaining things back. He once trained a neural network to generate startup ideas — and immediately shut it down for being too realistic.

  • Breaking down complex AI systems into “Ohhh, that’s what it does.”
  • Translating whitepapers into English.
  • Asking, “Yes, but what happens at scale?”
Believes every algorithm has a personality and most of them need therapy.
