Jamie Elliott, CEO at The Gate SXSW Takeaways

This year Jamie particularly enjoyed listening to both sides of the argument regarding AI. The good, the bad, the utopian and…the dystopian.
He loved seeing Jonah Peretti from BuzzFeed talking on ‘The AI-Powered Future of Creativity’ and Nick Chatrath discussing ‘How to Think – and Lead – in Ways AI Can’t’.

Kit Altin, CSO at The Gate: SXSW Takeaways

For Kit the trend that really caught her eye was the power of active collaboration. Completely different talents, disciplines and types of people coming together to create amazing developments: such as creative and scientists, bacteria and governments, authors of novels and TV show-runners, or artists working together with AI to create magic.
