Ashley Couto

Head of Creators @ You AI, PhD candidate in AI, Inc. startup columnist, creator

A techno-optimist, I've been building online communities of passionate weirdos since 2005. I've taught AI skills to everyone from F500 executives to retirees and worked with over 3,000 creators and SMBs to build sustainable businesses online. My AI articles about ChatGPT for Business Insider have become some of the most read AI pieces online and ended up on the front page of Microsoft Edge.

At You AI, I lead business development & partnerships. While working full-time, I built my brand to 140k followers and multiple six figures in revenue in a little over a year.

My doctoral research in AI at the University of Gloucestershire explores the 500 year tension between artists & copyright law from Renaissance Italy to the budding corpus of generative art rulings in the US.
