AI is everywhere, helping us write code, build apps, and automate tasks.But it made me wonder:

**What if we used AI to build something for charity?** 

That’s why I started experimenting with PetFinder,a platform to help people find their lost pets and reunite families. I built the first version using AI. It’s not fully tested yet, and there are definitely bugs to fix and real-world scenarios to figure out. But I wanted to share the idea anyway.

AI isn't only about making businesses more efficient or developers more productive.

**Maybe we can use it to help people and animals too.** 

This is just the beginning of PetFinder, but I'd love to see where the idea can go.
