## Summary

Martin Cordsmeier and Max Weidemann, co-founders of millionways, discuss their New York-based AI company's focus on 'scientific AI' versus generative AI. They explain how their technology analyzes text to create personality profiles and psychological backgrounds, aiming to provide explainable, bias-aware insights for mental health and HR applications. The founders argue that AI should act as a scientific tool to help people understand themselves rather than replacing human judgment, highlighting specific use cases like university matchmaking and veteran mental health support.
