UK’s first AI employee and software developer unveiled by Hull tech business

Hull based tech business February has developed Avery Ingram, the UK’s first AI employee and the world’s first AI software developer, now for hire.

With a ChatGPT generated CV and a DALLE-drawn portrait currently being mailed out to 6,000 tech companies, Avery Ingram has been developed by February, the young tech business which is going from strength to strength as it develops a broad portfolio of “innovative” tech products.

Ash Lewis, CEO of February, commented: “As the UK’s first AI employee and the world’s first AI software developer, Avery sits within an existing tech team and provides software support by modifying existing code specified by developers.

Developed by February’s team of software and AI designers, Avery Ingram, who lists data analysis on cat videos as a hobby on her CV, has already been appointed to generative AI software support roles as a senior full-stack developer in the development teams at Graze, Propello Cloud, Fabspot and Encode Health, among others.

Ash continued: “Avery functions as a support role within development teams making their tasks easier by checking code and making it more efficient, and she is super efficient, super productive and super quick.

“While we are obviously breaking new ground with Avery, this is not about taking developers’ jobs as she is there only to modify code rather than create new code; all code will still need to be revised and the acceptance criteria written by the development team.

“As Avery herself says; ‘I am the perfect candidate to streamline (the) software development process. My biggest achievement? Developing an algorithm that reduced development time by 50 per cent. My best qualities? Efficiency, accuracy, and adaptability. My skills? JavaScript, Python, C#, and more!’”

February has been working on Avery Ingram for the last 18 months on a slate of AI and software projects and has been making waves in the tech scene with its innovative product launches that have already included a “groundbreaking” AI app creator, so simple it only needs one sentence of typed text to create an app.

Ash added: “It’s this kind of AI-driven simplicity of functionality that has always been our goal, providing our clients with a system of ownership that takes away the barriers within tech. Avery Ingram is the latest example of how far tech has come and shows how we can now create things very simply and cost-effectively.”
