Engineering AI for Creativity and Curiosity on Mobile
Abstract
This talk shares practical lessons from building production-grade AI for creativity and curiosity on mobile devices. I’ll walk through how we turned ambitious, research-driven ideas into scalable, reliable features that feel effortless to users, from generative tools for artistic expression to multimodal information experiences. Along the way, we’ll look at key decisions in model design, UX, latency, and safety, and how they come together to ship AI that genuinely delights users at scale.
