Adam’s enthusiasm for AI started when he created Synapse.ai with Mark Zuckerberg. This program studied what users played on AOL’s Winamp digital music player and made personalized playlists. D’Angelo is still one of the keenest AI enthusiasts in Silicon Valley. While serving on the OpenAI board, he and other Quora engineers built Poe.com ( Platform for Open Exploration).
