Hello

I am based in Northern California with my wonderful wife and two great kids. I have been lucky enough to work at the intersection of art and technology with a bunch of amazing people who reshaped how we do business, communicate, and enjoy art. The things I write about here mirror my experience and areas of interests: entrepreneurship, M&A, prompt engineering, endurance training, and the future of work. As a still aspiring music writer trying to finally make use of my University of Tennessee Bachelor of Communications, Journalism degree, I also write a lot about music and the industry and technologies that shape our culture. about-mike-tatum

Topics

  • AI - Bots, voice assistants, algorithms, and the future of intelligence
  • Music - The artists, industry, and culture that shaped me
  • Entrepreneurship - Building, acquiring, and grinding through startups
  • Photography - Getting back behind the lens after years away

Writing

  • This is a collection of new and random posts over the years, posted on this weblog over the years or other sites I’ve written for previously. post
    • After many years using Wordpress, I’ve moved over to using Obsidian and Quartz (with a lot of help from Claude code) so that I can publicly build a knowledge base that is machine readable. claude

Current Projects

  • Goat Rodeo Club: An AI-powered endurance training platform with Claude coaching, Garmin integration, and SMS notifications. First major vibe coding project to help me train for ultramarathons. vibe
  • Workbus: A project hub and community for non-developers to build things with AI. Early development, but at least there is a site up now. vibe
