Bryant CruseFounder & CEOBryant graduated from St. John’s College in Annapolis, well-known for its unique Liberal Arts program, providing him with the fertile ground for a life-long interest in how humans know what they know (epistemology). After graduation, he served on active duty as a Naval Aviator, and then went on to earn a graduate degree in Space Systems Engineering from Johns Hopkins. Continuing his career, Bryant has been a pioneer in applying advanced automation software technology to solve difficult real-world problems. At NASA he developed the first application of AI technology for spacecraft operations for the yet-to-be-launched Hubble Telescope and was funded by NASA for a residency in AI (MS equivalent) at the Lockheed AI center. He then went on to found two successful high-tech software automation companies, which were acquired by public corporations. New Sapience, founded in 2014, is his third technology company. Education: BA, St. Johns College. MS Johns Hopkins University. MS (equivalent), Lockheed Artificial Intelligence Center.   Karsten HuneucuttChief Software ArchitectKarsten is an original founder of the company and is a co-author of the company’s core patent. He is the designer and programmer for the MIKOS AI processing engine and creator of the MICA language which it interprets. Prior to beginning full-time employment with New Sapience, he worked in the IT departments first at Duke and then the University of North Carolina where he designed and implemented the next generation of provisioning and de-provisioning, a campus wide single sign-on identity management system, and many other aspects of the university IT infrastructure.

Bachelor of Science in Computer Science; second major in Russian, Duke University, May 2001, William Robert BandyMember, Board of Directors, Chief Intellectual Property OfficerBill worked at DARPA in the mid-80’s, a time when advances in computing gave impetus to a new branch of computer science: Artificial Intelligence. He became hooked on the promise of AI, and it wasn’t until he met Bryant Cruse, the founder of New Sapience and perhaps the first “computational epistemologist,†did he think that promise could be realized. Bill, a New Sapience investor and advisor, understood right away that Bryant’s breakthrough cognitive core model has the capacity to dramatically change the AI landscape forever. After a 30-year government career with NSA and DARPA, Bill co-founded Matrics Technology Systems, Inc., for the development and production of low-cost, high-performance Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag technology and product.
