"In the past, it took months or years to create software, but now it takes me, or another person my age, less than an hour to create a vibe-coded app. For many older people, AI has been doing tasks for them with a single click or conversation."
"I started to recruit all my friends who I used to work with to found Hailo, a technology support platform. I encountered so many baby boomers whose problems were so simple to Gen Zers like me."
"One of the most common problems among the older generation is that, if they want to log into their Facebook, they don't know how to reset the password and will usually just call their kids."
"After I moved on from Hailo, I started Athena, which is an AI for kids in special education programs. I've always been good with older people and technology."
Bill Atienza, a startup founder, created an AI-powered tech support platform, Hailo, to assist older clients with technology. He observed that many older individuals struggle with simple tech tasks, often relying on younger people for help. Atienza's experience began with fixing tech issues for older clients, leading to the establishment of his platform. After Hailo, he developed Athena, an AI tool for children in special education. The evolution of technology has significantly reduced the time needed to create software, benefiting both older and younger generations.
