00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.700
So do you foresee, at least for maybe the next
00:00:03.700 --> 00:00:07.160
six months, as Livora scales and handles more
00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:10.859
borrowers, you would need to hire people that
00:00:10.859 --> 00:00:13.779
would be behind the scenes, human in the loop
00:00:13.779 --> 00:00:17.300
style, and figuring out should this be corrected?
00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:21.420
Yes. It's only if we have thousands of borrowers
00:00:21.420 --> 00:00:24.000
coming every second day. Maybe at that time it
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:27.079
would be hard to scale with humans. But as for
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:29.559
now, it's also we're in the early stage of the
00:00:29.559 --> 00:00:32.780
company. Trust is the thing that if you break
00:00:32.780 --> 00:00:36.780
this, we can just destroy our company from the
00:00:36.780 --> 00:00:40.000
beginning. And so for this trust, even if the
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:44.659
AI is giving us best answers it can, we do need
00:00:44.659 --> 00:00:48.100
a human behind it. And it's not about only verifying
00:00:48.100 --> 00:00:49.780
the information or if the answer is correct.
00:00:49.899 --> 00:00:52.460
It's also to understand, okay, this is the borrower.
00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:55.280
They need it. If they need a human connection
00:00:55.280 --> 00:00:58.280
behind it, For example, recently I was speaking
00:00:58.280 --> 00:01:00.619
with someone who applied to my website and saw
00:01:00.619 --> 00:01:02.479
that how it was matched with the other lenders.
00:01:02.899 --> 00:01:05.879
But she still wanted to speak with someone. As
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:08.700
I had been following the whole process silently,
00:01:09.060 --> 00:01:11.439
when I spoke to her, I knew exactly what's going
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:14.280
on in her life and what are her questions. At
00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:18.700
this early stage, I believe that I myself has
00:01:18.700 --> 00:01:22.079
to be hands -on on all those areas. I like that.
00:01:22.510 --> 00:01:25.250
And that keeps the personal touch, even if there
00:01:25.250 --> 00:01:27.290
is an AI that's doing most of the grunt work.
00:01:27.689 --> 00:01:30.510
Yes, the personal touch and that trust, I would
00:01:30.510 --> 00:01:32.549
say. More than personal touch, this trust that
00:01:32.549 --> 00:01:35.689
there are humans behind the AI. It's not a spam
00:01:35.689 --> 00:01:39.409
AI. Yeah, that is important. And how do you see
00:01:39.409 --> 00:01:43.390
AI maybe changing in a way that would affect
00:01:43.390 --> 00:01:48.650
Libora or this marketplace business? Maybe, again,
00:01:48.890 --> 00:01:53.500
AI is going so fast. That I don't, I will not
00:01:53.500 --> 00:01:56.739
be surprised that in five years, Libora, the
00:01:56.739 --> 00:02:00.340
whole proposition of one borrower matching with
00:02:00.340 --> 00:02:04.180
multiple lenders is going to be extremely easy
00:02:04.180 --> 00:02:07.019
to use, easy to develop. And then there will
00:02:07.019 --> 00:02:10.879
be, I will no more need Libora. They will just
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:14.479
go in a GPT, apply, and then they get the offers.
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:18.060
So maybe Libora might not be existed at that
00:02:18.060 --> 00:02:20.729
time. That's a very good question. And this is
00:02:20.729 --> 00:02:23.430
what I was asking that maybe AI is going to replace
00:02:23.430 --> 00:02:27.069
Levora, maybe. But one thing that I don't see
00:02:27.069 --> 00:02:30.349
AI doing is the network that I'm creating. It's
00:02:30.349 --> 00:02:33.129
the people that I'm connecting today and who
00:02:33.129 --> 00:02:36.530
knows me, who know what I do. Oh, yes, the application
00:02:36.530 --> 00:02:39.669
process might not be there, but the community
00:02:39.669 --> 00:02:42.189
I'm going to build from now until, I don't know,
00:02:42.229 --> 00:02:44.669
in five years. Today, there are hundreds of people
00:02:44.669 --> 00:02:48.759
in my... in my connection of the borrower. But
00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:50.719
in Fiverr, there will be thousands of people.
00:02:50.819 --> 00:02:53.060
And those thousands of people will be trusting
00:02:53.060 --> 00:02:56.180
what we do. So again, coming back to the trust,
00:02:56.379 --> 00:02:59.000
I would say that this is one thing that I believe
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:01.419
is going to be harder for AI to replace a human.
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:04.599
That makes sense. And AI doesn't have the ability
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:08.219
to build a network of trust. Not yet. It's easy
00:03:08.219 --> 00:03:10.479
to say that tomorrow there will be a chat where
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:12.740
they will just ask answers and they get the offers.
00:03:13.219 --> 00:03:16.800
I can see it. It's coming. It's possible. But
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.939
I don't see it coming that AI is just this network
00:03:20.939 --> 00:03:23.960
that those humans that you're connected. I'm
00:03:23.960 --> 00:03:26.620
also currently building a community where all
00:03:26.620 --> 00:03:28.539
the borrowers, they're discussing with one another
00:03:28.539 --> 00:03:31.659
their pain points and what are the clinic growth
00:03:31.659 --> 00:03:36.409
problems. It's a close community. They find only
00:03:36.409 --> 00:03:39.210
like -minded people. It's not like a Reddit where
00:03:39.210 --> 00:03:41.629
they just post something and someone comes. You
00:03:41.629 --> 00:03:43.430
don't know if it's a legitimate person or not.
00:03:43.490 --> 00:03:45.889
It's just a fake profile whatsoever. So this
00:03:45.889 --> 00:03:47.849
close community where people will be discussing
00:03:47.849 --> 00:03:50.310
things with one another, answering, understanding.
00:03:50.750 --> 00:03:54.069
This is, again, it's hard for me to see AI as
00:03:54.069 --> 00:03:58.430
replacing it. I started this podcast because
00:03:58.430 --> 00:04:01.569
of an image that came to me in a dream. Back
00:04:01.569 --> 00:04:03.770
when cities had walls, everyone passed through
00:04:03.770 --> 00:04:06.360
the gate. Talk to enough people there and you'd
00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:09.659
understand the city. I wanted to stand at the
00:04:09.659 --> 00:04:12.180
gate and understand not just how AI was changing,
00:04:12.300 --> 00:04:15.560
but how AI was changing us. If you know someone
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:18.339
building or leading with AI, or if this episode
00:04:18.339 --> 00:04:21.839
was useful, an introduction, a share, or a quick
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:24.420
review on your podcast app all help keep these
00:04:24.420 --> 00:04:26.360
conversations going and help others find them.
