Alex Vidal

Alex Vidal

I teach humans and organizations how to use AI. And I teach AIs how to teach humans.

As founder of Mindmakers, I build adaptive learning technology that adjusts to each learner in real time. Whether you're upskilling 10 employees or teaching 1,000 students, no more one size fits all.

My background combines Psychology and Computer Science, which means I think about how people actually learn, not just how to ship features. I've been teaching AI and data science for a decade with thousands of learners.
