Introducing Story's new Chief AI Officer, @SPChinchali.

Sandeep is a professor at UT Austin focusing on GenAI, robotics, and distributed systems. He’s an ex-NASA researcher, early engineer of a startup acquired by VMware, and holds a Stanford PhD in AI and distributed systems.

As Chief AI Officer, Sandeep will lead Story's AI strategy, driving key incubations and advising the broader ecosystem on how to capture the immense AI opportunity ahead.

Sandeep’s work has long focused on how robots, sensors and ML models can learn from the messy physical world. Now he's bringing his expertise to web3 and Story.

That's because AI’s next leap isn’t about more GPUs. It’s about unlocking the most valuable (and underserved) category of IP: real-world data.

Sandeep's appointment is an important step towards achieving Story's Chapter 2 vision. Next week, this vision will come to life in a big way.

Stay tuned.
