Granola Fireside with Doug Li
🚀 Doug Li is a co-founder and CEO of Lightfern, and was the first hire for OpenAI UK as a Member of Technical Staff.
His research team dramatically improved GPT-4o's writing ability, voice accents, image generation, and overall performance. Before that, he was an IC & eng manager at Meta, where he built Activity Log, the privacy selector, Chat, Messages, and VR Avatars and Workrooms together with friends. Lightfern is the telepathic AI writing tool - a browser extension that pulls context from your email threads to predict whole phrases as you type. It nails your greetings, signoffs, style, and even fine details such as invoice numbers or your client’s vacation last month. All powered by the best autocomplete model in the world, trained in-house.
