“Our goal is to create interesting new capabilities: tools for analysts or creators, tools for artists if it’s in entertainment. Like any tool builder, you want to use the best tool for the job. When AI provides new opportunities and is the right tool for the job, by all means, we should use it. But we also use it with some skepticism.” – Kayvon Fatahalian
