After GPTZero gained 1.2M users since January, co-founder Edward Tian raised $3.5M to launch Origin, aimed at “saving journalism” by detecting AI disinformation
When I say ‘we’, I mean an incredible team of friends who've joined me to work on #GPTZero, not least @Alexcdot who dropped out of PHD to lead R&D, @KusioOlivia NY's most talented designer, and @EdmondAtto Uganda's first Obama scholar who flew 24h to NY for a demo this week..
Said first demo was an invitation to present Origin to @tglocer who ran Reuters, and Mark Thompson, who led the NYT through its digital transition AND ran the BBC. Think it went well, here's our before and after pics with Mark! https://twitter.com/...
Latest: GPTZero, the startup co-founded by Princeton student @edward_the6 to detect AI generated text, is now back on the market for funding to combat burgeoning disinformation online. https://www.bloomberg.com/...
