Team and Partners
Founder & CEO of Alpha Industries
Jan Tyl (Mgr. HTF UK – teaching, religion, ethics, and philosophy; MBA) is a Czech AI scientist, entrepreneur, and populariser. He founded Alpha Industries in 2018 and has since focused on the intersection of AI, education, and the humanities.
He appears on Czech TV, Czech Radio, and international expert platforms. He hosts the Hyperprostor programme on artificial intelligence, received the AI Awards 2019 for Digital Philosopher, and a Prix Europa nomination for Digital Writer.
Outside of AI, he served as consultant and the model for the main character Jan Tyler in the sci-fi novel Syndikát by Czech writer Leoš Kyša (who publishes under the pseudonym František Kotleta) — the name resemblance is no coincidence. The novel has been adapted into two audiobooks and a radio drama. The AI assistant Karel from the novel inspired Alfréd — the digital butler you will meet on this website.
Education: Mgr. (Husitská teologická fakulta UK — etika, filosofie, náboženství) · MBA (Startups & Entrepreneurship, 2022)
Awards: AI Awards 2019 za Digitálního filosofa · nominace Prix Europa za Digitálního spisovatele
Co-founder of IQS Group
I wanted to discover how far AI can go in personal development. The result pleasantly surprised me — DigiMartin exceeded my expectations. Hyperprostor clearly demonstrates how far one can advance thanks to artificial intelligence.
Project Manager, Konrad Adenauer Foundation
Honza Tyl is a visionary who is always a step ahead of others. His ability to predict future trends in artificial intelligence while applying them ethically and for the benefit of society is admirable. He has his heart in the right place, and his projects are a testament to his dedication to creating technologies that serve humanity.
Philosopher, AI Aesthete, Media Theorist
FAMU students created two digital beings in the Hyperprostor platform during the final workshop of the semester, allowing them to communicate with each other. They had a great time while learning how to understand and control generative systems.
AI Systems Architect at ARICOMA, Member of the PANGEA Foundation Board
Thanks to digital personalities like DigiHavel and DigiKomenský, education is becoming more interactive and engaging. AI brings us new perspectives, supports critical thinking, and broadens the horizons of students and professionals.
