AI companions have come a long way, starting as sidekicks and now becoming full digital partners. Replika AI launched back in 2017 and really took […]
I recently teamed up with speaker business consultant, Maria Franzoni, to create a series of short Zoom interviews exploring the impact of AI, future trends, and the exciting opportunities ahead. AI is already making waves in filmmaking — from transcription and audio mixing to filling content gaps and even creating trailers. But it’s not there […]
