The start-up fixing AI's errors, with Invisible Technologies' Francis Pedraza
Scaling a business means managing redundant tasks that take time and manpower. Through his company, Invisible Technologies, Francis Pedraza is looking to make that process easier by creating a digital assembly line with humans and AI working together.
