This is a relaxed, open conversation about the intersection of AI, music, and the culture shaping both.
I spent years building AI systems at OpenAI and later leading AI at Spotify, where algorithms, music, and human taste collide every day. This monthly session is a chance to step back from the hype and talk about what is actually happening inside the world of AI.
Sometimes we will talk about recommendation systems and how they shape what people listen to. Other times we might talk about how AI is changing creativity, how product teams think about culture, or what it is really like working inside large AI organizations.
There is no formal lecture. Bring questions, ideas, or just curiosity. Some people come because they care about AI. Some come because they love music. Some are navigating careers in the industry. All are welcome.
I will usually start the conversation with a song that has been on my mind lately and a short story about how technology and taste interact behind the scenes.
From there, we open it up and see where the conversation goes.
Think of it less like a webinar and more like a monthly gathering for people interested in where AI and culture are heading.
