This summer, we're creating that right place.

This is going to save me 1000000β¦ hours as a creator π½ So blown away by how advanced some of these tools are. Feel like my midjourney figma flow is 5 years ago already..
Highly recommend checking them out if you want to learn to do creative work with AI
Had so much fun presenting this morning at Edge City Esmerelda about AI creative tools, shifting sentiment around the space, and optimistic futures we can lean into for a new creative vision with AI. @JoinEdgeCity@EdgeEsmeralda
almost two weeks into @JoinEdgeCity esmeralda with @xerberus
week 1 was health & flourishing. i expected to quietly work while the biohackers did their thing
instead i ended up in conversations about consciousness, longevity, and getting my blood tested between calls
turns out risk infrastructure and biological resilience are the same question asked at different layers
Onto week 2: AI & governance. home turf
