Data scientists face significant challenges in developing and optimizing neural networks. 

The process is labor-intensive, requiring extensive manual effort to design, test, and refine models. Current methods are inefficient and costly, often leading to diminishing returns as models grow larger and more complex. Additionally, achieving high accuracy while maintaining manageable model sizes is a persistent struggle. 

Current AI systems are built on outdated concepts of neural networks from the 1940s, which do not leverage the latest advancements in neuroscience. 

There is a need for a solution that can integrate these modern insights with an automated and streamlined process, enabling data scientists to create more efficient and accurate models without the prohibitive costs and time investments.  Perforated AI is that solution.

Founder Story

Perforated AI was founded by Dr. Rorry Brenner in 2022. 

Dr. Brenner began his academic journey at Carnegie Mellon University, earning a degree in computer science. Disappointed by the basic computer vision class offered in 2009, which merely scratched the surface of advanced AI technologies, he was inspired to learn how the brain performs tasks that AI struggled with.

This curiosity led him to pursue a Ph.D. in neuroscience at the University of Southern California. There, he discovered a unique mechanism in biological neurons that was absent in artificial neurons used in deep learning. This revelation was transformative, revealing a new frontier in AI development by integrating modern neuroscience with software engineering.

Determined to bridge this gap, Dr. Brenner founded Perforated AI. The company leverages dendritic integration to create neural networks that are smarter, smaller, and more cost-effective. By combining his expertise in computer science and neuroscience, Dr. Brenner has positioned Perforated AI at the cutting edge of AI innovation, empowering data scientists with tools that bring techniques of the human brain to modern AI systems.
