AI Founder | Angel Investor | Founder of SEEN

Chengxi Taylor is a London-based technologist working across AI, business and culture.

She is Co-founder & President of AI research company General Reasoning, where she brings together investment and strategic partnerships to accelerate frontier AI. She has led deals with Meta and Google DeepMind.

Before General Reasoning, Chengxi founded four tech companies with 10 years’ experience of turning cutting-edge tech into real-world products. Across 3D printing, AR and AI, she's working towards a long-term mission: using frontier tech to expand human potentials. 3D printing freed creativity from manufacturing constraints; AR freed digital experience from the screen; and AI now expands the boundaries of intelligence.

She holds an Oxford MBA and CFA qualification. She is an angel investor backing AI companies that tackle civilisation-scale challenges (more at SixND), and founder of SEEN, a cultural platform connecting tech and culture.

When AI becomes intelligent, what makes us human?

From the insight of building frontier AI, Chengxi challenges a fundamental belief: intelligence is what makes us exceptional.

For centuries, we’ve defined human worth through intelligence. But when AI becomes intelligent, what makes us human?

The real disruption isn’t what AI becomes. It’s who we become.
