Starting point is 00:00:00 This audio is presented by Hacker Noon, where anyone can learn anything about any technology. From concept to benchmark supremacy, Vishwesh's AI reasoning breakthrough. By Kushvi Pondi, artificial intelligence is rapidly advancing, but many breakthroughs in recent years have come with trade-offs. Larger models dominate the headlines, trained with billions of parameters and immense computational power. While they excel in generating content and recognizing patterns, they remain largely opaque, inefficient, and difficult to explain. For industries where trust, auditability, and efficiency matter, these systems fall short. This challenge is where VichVesh, co-founder and CEO of Core Think AI, is making a mark. His invention, general
Starting point is 00:00:43 symbolics, is redefining the possibilities of reasoning-based AI. By merging symbolic logic with neural learning, VichVesh has built an engine that not only achieves benchmark beating accuracy but also offers explainability, something rarely found in conventional AI models. It is an innovation that reflects his belief that intelligence is not about brute force but about smart, transparent reasoning. Traditional AI systems fall into two categories, black box neural networks that process vast amounts of data with little interpretability and symbolic reasoning systems that are logical but rigid and unable to handle complex, unstructured data. Vich Vesh saw an opportunity to combine the best of both worlds. The result was general
Starting point is 00:01:25 symbolics, a hybrid AI framework that can adapto-complex scenarios while remaining explainable. This is more than an incremental improvement. It is a fundamentally original contribution to how AI reasoning systems are built. The architecture delivers accuracy with a fraction of the computational load required by traditional large-scale models, making it both practical and scalable for enterprises. Its performance has been validated across six globally recognized AI reasoning benchmarks, where CoreThink AI's model consistently outperformed competitors. In one key test, the BFCL tool calling benchmark, general symbolics achieved 81. 5% accuracy, exceeding the 78% average score of top-tier models from industry leaders.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Achieving this without costly fine-tuning or synthetic data makes the results even more remarkable. While many AI breakthroughs remain theoretical or limited to research papers, Vishvesh's innovation is being put to work in real-world environments. CoreThink AI has already deployed its reasoning engine across multiple industries. In logistics, a partner reported a 30% reduction in simulation errors, significantly improving efficiency and cost savings in supply chain planning. In finance, a leading fintech firm is building a next-generation fraud detection system using general symbolics. Its ability to explain why certain flags are erased makes it particularly valuable in a sector
Starting point is 00:02:49 where transparency and compliance are critical. For developers, CoreThink AI's SDKs have streamlined integration, reducing onboarding times from four to six weeks to as little astute to three days. Vishvesh emphasizes that these applications are a natural extension of his philosophy. Enterprises don't invest in benchmarks, they invest in outcomes. Our mission has always been to create a system that doesn't just demonstrate intelligence on paper but actively solves the complex, logic-based problems companies face every day. Vishwesh's contribution goes far beyond inventing general Symbolics. ASCO founder and CEO, he has played a critical role in guiding the company's strategy,
Starting point is 00:03:29 assembling a high-performing team of nine engineers, and securing a seven-figure capital in early stage funding across pre-seed and series A rounds. His ability to articulate the commercial value of reasoning AI, alongside ITS technical strengths, has attracted both investors and enterprise partners. He personally led design partnerships with enterprises, conducting technical discussions and overseeing pilot projects that validated the engine's reliability in real-world settings. His decision to prioritize the sub-partnerships over mass market deployment allowed CoreThink AI to build credibility and refine its product through feedback from enterprise clients.
Starting point is 00:04:06 Vishvesh's work represents a shift away from the industry's obsession with size. While other AI companies continue to build increasingly large models, general symbolics proves that architectural innovation can outperform brute force computation. By focusing on explainability and efficiency, Vishwesh IS advocating for a new way forward, one that is not only technically superior but also environmentally responsible, given the high energy demands of large-scale AI. His efforts have gained attention within the AI research community. The benchmark results achieved by Core Think AI have been referenced in technical reports and industry discussions as an example of what lean, efficient model scan accomplish.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Vishvesh's influence extends beyond core think AI. Through conference presentations at AI Dev World and COGX, as well as white papers and technical documentation, he has contributed to the wider conversation about reasoning AI. His talks often focus on the importance of transparent, auditable systems, a theme that resonates as enterprises seek to adopt AI responsibly. His work on patent-pending algorithms behind general symbolics further underscores his role as a thought leader and original contributor to the field. By formalizing and protecting these innovations, he has positioned both himself and core think AI as pioneers in next generation reasoning architectures.
Starting point is 00:05:25 General Symbolics is not just a product. It is a platform for the next wave of AI applications. From robotics and industrial automation to healthcare diagnostics and financial analytics, its ability to reason with both precision and explainability opens new possibilities. Vichwesh's long-term vision is to democratize reasoning AI. CoreThink AIIS devloping pre-built reasoning modules and automated integration pipelines to make the technology accessible even to mid-market companies and developers. Wessey reasoning AI is the next foundational layer of enterprise intelligence, he says. Our focus is on making it simple, scalable, and transparent so business e-scan deploy it with confidence.
Starting point is 00:06:06 From its inception to its current benchmark supremacy, general symbolics is a reflection of Vishwesh's original contributions and critical role in advancing AI. He has not only invented a breakthrough reasoning architecture but also built the team, strategy, and partnerships needed to bring it to life. His ability to combine technical depth with a strong business vision has positioned Core Think AI as a leader in reasoning-based AI and has sparked important conversations across the industry. By challenging conventional thinking and prioritizing efficiency, transparency, and outcomes, Vishwesh is shaping the future of AI in ways that are both practical and visionary. His work stands as a testament to what can be achieved when innovation is paired
