ThinkLA's Inaugural AI Brunch, presented by Anoki Inc., far exceeded expectations with over 300 tickets sold, a record for a new event. The panels were engaging, insightful, and a tad controversial, leaving guests with much to discuss during post-event networking. We were thrilled to premier a video of new Snap AI features. ChatGPT, Co-Pilot, and Gemini AI chat participated throughout the event from providing "funny AI event openings" to providing "Utopian/Dystopian views of the future of AI and humans". We look forward to what next year's event will bring and we hope to see you there.
