In the past 2 months, I have had the chance to explore the San Francisco AI events space, and I am BLOWN away by the pace at which companies/ideas/startups are progressing in Gen AI. Another motivating and inspiring aspect is how active women communities and groups are in this area. As an advocate for Women in tech/ai/data, it is inspiring to see the progress being made in San Francisco. I am committed to contributing my part and continuing to push forward. Together, we can drive meaningful change and innovation, ensuring a more equitable and dynamic future for the tech industry. Here is a pic from last week, where I had a 'gala' time at Elevate SF- Women in tech gathering with an auction gala. Thanks Mariane Bekker Founders Bay for sharing this event! #womenintech #ai #community #sanfrancisco #genai #llms #inspire #growth

Patricia Bradby Moore keeps it candid and super fun in the lightning round. This is one of my favourite parts of the episode.

You won’t want to miss this episode—it’s packed with wisdom, wit, and a few unexpected twists! Episode releases tomorrow! Till then enjoy the sneak peak of the lightning round. Stay tuned and get ready to giggle! #TheDataDojo #ai #speaking #WomenInTech #TechTalk #Podcast #LaughterAndLearning

I attended “The Elevate SF: Auction & Gala For Women in Tech” last night at SVB, and it was an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere was vibrant with women founders/leaders in their finest cocktail attire, not just networking but also dancing and celebrating. The sense of camaraderie and support was palpable as we uplifted and inspired one another. Highlights of the night included an exclusive online auction and an enlightening session titled “Mini Transformation: To Stop Self-Sabotage” by executive coach Natalie Pan, addressing a challenge many women face and finally ending with lots of Dancing!! A big thank you to Mariane Bekker, Erika Bahr, Founders Bay, Develop for Good, and all the other organizers for creating such a fantastic evening. Thank you for fostering this incredible community. #sf #sfevents #womenintech #ai #gala #auction #bayarea #startups #investors #theaigal #tech #networking #cocktail #auction

Wow wow wow! Impressed with Dream Machine Luma AI - OpenAI Sora's(yet to made available for public) competitor. The video clarity has scope to get better but this free tier(10 generations per day) is pretty crazy in understanding complex prompts. Here is the prompt I used to generate this video - Scene is set in a futuristic city with a clever fox. The fox zips through the sky in a flying car, using a holographic map to navigate the city. The scene shows the fox landing at a high-tech library with floating books and interactive screens. The fox excitedly uses advanced gadgets to explore new information and ideas in the library.
