Ray Dalio, founder of hedge fund Bridgewater Associates, said:

I'm at a stage in life that has led me to want to share my insights and experiences, rather than keep them to myself. I’ve always found exchanges with my readers rewarding, and I wish I could do so more often. Over the last 35 years, I've written down nearly all my principles and…

“Over the last 35 years, I’ve written down nearly all my principles and criteria for making decisions. Now, thanks to rapid AI technology—and frankly, because it’s so cool—my AI team and I have developed Digital Ray. This tool allows me to speak with everyone who wishes to, for as long as they want, at any time.

The first version of what I’m temporarily calling “Digital Ray” has been in beta testing for a few months now and is well-trained to converse about life and work as I would. If people allow it, it can also get to know them, making the conversations more personalized.

That version had communications in text. This new version has been upgraded, allowing us to have voice conversations just like we would in a real conversation. You can use it any time, whether you’re exploring an idea, making a decision, or navigating a difficult situation, and wherever you are. Additionally, you can choose to have the audio transcribed and saved to your chat history after the conversation ends, allowing you to revisit it at any time.

If you’re interested in joining this beta test, which I’m sure you will find interesting and I know will help me make this thing great, you can sign up below.

For this beta round, we’re looking for individuals who will be active users of the tool and provide feedback.
