At any time there are clients seeking additional help, so if one gets bored at specific assignment, internal move is easy enough to orchestrate.

In 2022 I decided to try my hand in something new by joining Vubiquity, one of Amdocs acquired companies. While they do many things to support Entertainment industry, my focus was around cloud-based white-label Entertainment Suite solution. Think Netflix-like solution, including Apps on various platforms, all seamlessly connecting consumers with their favorite streaming videos from Hollywood (and smaller) studios. While undoubtedly video streaming has came a long way by, it is amazing how many technological challenges remain in smooth video delivery, especially for international audiences with many languages and Ads.

As I celebrated 30 years with Amdocs, thoughts started to creep in to consider exploring what else is out there. I call this - Midlife crisis of sorts. I especially wanted to see if I can contribute to society in a more meaningful way, and perhaps give back to Open-Source community. Throughout the years I wished to give back on several occasions, but often complex licensing agreements and NDAs made it prohibitive.

I also eternally fascinated by the rapid progress in AI in recent years. I worked with neural-networks over 30 years ago in Tel-Aviv University, but felt there wasn't enough time for deeper dive into latest advancements with full-time work. My exposure while solutioning was limited, mostly as prompt engineering or integrating to existing LLMs and other models. I am fascinated and hopefully to now have the time to dive much deeper.

**We truly just scratching the surface with AI, especially when coupled with robotics, it will benefit humanity in incredible ways.**
