Recapping our #AIweekNY party, plus beta testers wanted and fundraising updates

We spent a weekend in New York building the AI Remix Engine, a system that uses video intelligence to turn long, archived ads into short, modern clips that feel natural in today’s feeds. Using TwelveLabs, we trained it to recognize emotion, pacing, and story within old commercials, finding the moments that still work and giving them new life. It’s a first step toward ads that blend with content instead of interrupting it.

At the Bohemian AI Salon we filmed some AI hot takes from builders, artists, investors, and the politely outraged. Here are the results!

A disco tea party in the Village reminded me of how spaces like Romany Marie’s salons once shaped culture through conversation. So I’m hosting a small AI salon on Oct 6 during #AIWeekNY — no panels, just real talk between builders, artists, philosophers, and investors about where AI is headed (and what we want it to be).
