Today is my last day at Neon. I feel incredibly grateful and proud of the time I’ve spent helping grow the platform from a few hundred to nearly a million users.

It was an honor to give a speech at the Algeria CTO Forum and to have a conversation with the Ministers of Telecom and Startups about the future of technology in the country.

I can’t get enough of this view and am so lucky call this region home. I’m on my way to my home country Algeria 🇩🇿 to speak at the CTO Forum about “how to stay relevant in a world redefined by AI”, then off to NYC🗽for the AI Engineer Summit. Let me know if you want to meet 👋

One thing I don't mention enough about Neon is how talented our engineering team is. The company was built by Postgres hackers with open source in mind and continues to contribute upstream to Postgres, its ecosystem of extensions and poolers. ...

A perfect Sunday Randonee Skiing ❄️ Out in nature is a true therapy. Away from worries and screens, it’s the perfect place to be in the moment, reflect and appreciate.

I read Kai-Fu Lee’s book AI Superpowers a few years before the ChatGPT moment. He called Alpha Go beating Lee Sedol “China’s Sputnik moment” and explains both why China took AI very seriously since then and the resilience of its entrepreneurs. Beautiful read.

2024 is a wrap! I'm taking two weeks off to spend some time with my 🇩🇿 and 🇳🇴 families. I’m grateful for all the fantastic people I met this year in Geneva, Paris, Berlin, San Francisco, and other places around the world 🙌. I'm very excited about 2025, and I can't wait to see you all then.

I have been playing with the ElevenLabs Agent API lately. So here is an example based on Rishiraj Rain’s work on Voice Thingy.
