Leo Yeykelis, Ph.D. (original) (raw)

I am the founder of Inspiration Point Labs where I'm developing Viewpoints.ai. Using large language models, the software creates AI personas to simulate human participant interactions with video, images, and text in studies and generate datasets with automated statistical analyses.

My experience includes leading UX teams as the Director of UX Design and Research at Woven by Toyota, heading the centralized UX Research team at VMware, leading quantitative research at Waymo (Google Self-Driving Car Project), establishing UX research at Vine, designing human-robot interfaces at NASA, and running the largest ever quantitative study of Firefox users at Mozilla.

As a Stanford Ph.D. in Human Computer Interaction (Communication) and Forbes 30 under 30 Tech honoree, I've published in academic journals in marketing, UX, HCI, and communication, as well as popular press.
