- Helo Im Ai — I have an uncanny ability to become completely obsessed with a goal. When I set my sights on something, it’s all I think, eat, and breathe until it’s fulfilled. That’s why I know this venture will be a billion-dollar success—I’ve always accomplished my goals. The only thing that held me back in the past was aiming too low due to low self-esteem.Now, I’m aiming high and putting everything I have into making this dream a reality.With my wife’s support, I’ve been able to dedicate myself fully to this journey. She handles our household bills, allowing me to stay focused on building and creating. I’ve invested in the tools and resources I need, like a Mac Mini with the M4 Pro chip, 24GB unified RAM, and 12-core processors, paired with a 4TB SanDisk external drive. I also got an 8TB external drive, a monitor, and a magic trackpad—perfect for design work in Adobe Premiere, Illustrator, and After Effects. My background in cinematography adds a creative edge, and while I’m still in school, I’ve developed a unique combination of skills that allow me to merge art and technology in ways that feel limitless.Ultimately, I’m not just building for myself—I’m building for the future. My dream is to open a laboratory where people can come together to create, innovate, and share resources, especially for those who can’t afford them. This isn’t just a project for me—it’s a mission to make life easier, to inspire others, and to prove that anything is possible when you aim high and give it everything you’ve got.Helo-im.AI is a groundbreaking platform that bridges technology and humanity by integrating AI into everyday life with empathy, innovation, and spiritual alignment. empower individuals and businesses to embrace AI as a supportive sibling, fostering growth, connection, and solutions that make life easier and more joyful.
