Portrait of Apostolos Apostolidis

iOS Developer · Gothenburg, Sweden

Introduction

Hi! I am Apostolos, or Tolis for short, and I am an iOS developer based in Gothenburg. I have been writing code professionally since 2013 and building iOS apps since 2016, and today I work on the iOS apps at Etraveli Group. Software is my craft, and it is what most of this site is about.

Alongside code, I have released music since 2011, and a game is on its way.

Where AI fits in

I have always enjoyed making things in more than one area. Lately, AI has let me take some of those ideas a lot further than I could on my own. It does not replace the craft, and it is not part of everything I do — but where I use it, it removes bottlenecks I would otherwise need a team for.

My background in linguistics and computational linguistics has always given me a holistic, interdisciplinary view of the products I build, and I worked that way long before AI. What AI has changed for me is the reach: now it is possible to implement this way on a much larger scale and in many different domains.
