The Problem Solvers: Kay Zhu at Genspark

Kay Zhu built Genspark on a belief he's living at home: that AI should free people to follow their heart. His teenage son is studying commercial dance instead of computer science with his full support. As CTO and co-founder, Kay built Genspark to make that possible at scale with an all-in-one AI workspace for business. In a market moving this fast, anyone can build, but Kay believes the team is what makes the difference. He chose Claude for its reasoning capabilities, and found something beyond the model: a close partnership with Anthropic that let him take Genspark further than he could alone. The Problem Solvers is a series from Anthropic speaking to founders about how they're solving problems, and why they build with Claude.
