AI Night Thinkers: Live Edition

​AI Night Thinkers goes live

​Our Night Thinkers sessions have always run online. For Lisbon AI Week, we're doing one in the room: at Be Home in Cascais, and livestreamed for anyone who can't make it.

​Three people, three real stories of working with AI, from rebuilding a career to shipping software.

​Speakers

​Mikkel Solnado — From burnout to AI consultant

​In 15 minutes, Mikkel tells how AI forced him to close his business, the burnout that followed, and how he rebuilt his career from scratch. He went from losing his company to working as an AI consultant with international clients, and built an audience of 45,000 followers along the way. A personal story about adapting when the world changes faster than expected.

​Erik Lindgren — An AI assistant editor that runs on your Mac

​After 20+ years as a video editor, Erik built Cutler, a macOS app that does the work of an assistant editor, running locally on the editor's own machine. It organizes and logs footage, transcribes, adds tags and keywords, builds a rough cut and delivers a Final Cut Pro timeline, ready for the editor to finish.

​Sandro Costa — From Pack to Story

​One packaging image in, a full campaign out. In a live demo, Sandro opens a real production workflow he built in Magnific for a Brazilian food retailer. From a single photo of the packaging, it reads the brand, extracts the product details and generates a complete shoot: e-commerce packshots, new angles and lifestyle scenes, with brand consistency held across dozens of images. Less production, more direction.
