Two Years Later...

After two years, I am no longer a 'Whisker'. Instead, I now have a new job which is a much better fit for my original (academic) background.

The company I now work at is Artificial Solutions, building bespoke virtual assistants for commercial websites (but also self-standing bots such as Indigo (available as an iOS app) and Elbot. My official job title is Knowledge Engineer, and I work designing dialogue flows and general backend NL components.

To be honest, I'm glad that I am no longer at a start-up. The culture is a bit wearing, especially if you're about the oldest person in the office (at least among the developers). I also didn't like to be bossed about by people who were less experienced and knew everything better...

So, who knows, maybe I'll post again in two years about what happened since. In the meantime, I have a new blog which is updated more frequently.
