Brilliant leaders. Smart conversations. Honest takes. Shared experiences. Real human fun.
A special thank you to David Ruiz and AdMedia for helping make nights like this possible. This team of experts are a top resource in providing brand leaders and Full-funnel Media Solutions.
It’s hard to capture what happens when the cities wealth of marketing intelligence is in one room. Conversations spilled across courses, moved between tables, and somehow everyone became part of the same conversation.
Beauty & Essex ... the hidden entrance, the beautiful space, the incredible courses. It was perfection.
And the conversation? Exactly what you’d expect from this group: everywhere.
Search. AI. LLMs. The future of how we work. Everyone is using LLM tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. And no two people are using them the same way.
Some have created personas. Some have assigned personalities. Some have even named them.
And then there are the chat histories…the completely unhinged collection of our previous prompts that makes everyone question who they’ve become. It captures exactly where we are.
AI is no longer just a tool we’re experimenting with. It’s becoming part of how we work, create, and make decisions.
Which brought us to the question of the night:
Has anyone actually threatened to break up with their LLM for another one? And if so… how did it take the news?
Thank you, NYC, for an unforgettable evening. We'll be back soon!
