Origin of the name

Why MNEOS?

Most AI companies are named after technology.

MNEOS is named after something much older.

The name comes from Mnemosyne, the Greek Titan of Memory.

In Greek thought, memory was not storage.

Memory was the source of intelligence.

From memory came the Nine Muses — the ancient patrons of every field of human understanding. History. Astronomy. Music. Tragedy. Comedy. Sacred hymn. Epic poem. Dance. Lyric verse.

They were sisters. Science and art were never separate.
