It seems like a very common use case for LLMs will be to take them and fine tune them or specialize them on a specific knowledge base. Ideally it's exposed by API, and has self-hosting or managed options.

Who's building this?

Gumroad somewhat notably is a company that has only part-time employees. There are some companies that do a 4 day work week, and some big companies like Google have policies where full-timers can ask to go down to 60% or 80% pro-rated, but you can't apply directly for those positions.

Are there other companies like Gumroad that offer part-time employment as a competitive hiring advantage and as a formalized program? Note I'm not asking for companies that have allowed it one-off for a key hire, or a company that hires contractors occasionally.

I’m looking to hear stories of parents who wanted to keep working, and enjoyed their career but due to high childcare costs/lack of work flexibility/other reasons, your only option was to quit and become a full-time stay at home parent.

If so, was a part-time job ever an option? What other scenarios did you consider to try to continue your career? Are you the mom or dad?
