Reel Stories: AI & Philosophy 🎬

What does it mean for an algorithm to be biased? John Basl, Associate Professor at Northeastern, brings philosophy into technical AI research so ethics sits at the core of the work.

I produced this one as Video Producer for Northeastern’s Institute for Experiential AI. Big ideas deserve good storytelling.

🎬 This is just the beginning.

A love story doesn’t always start with two people.
Sometimes it begins with silence, distance, and the choice to keep becoming.

A Love Story ? — a visual meditation filmed across continents, exploring what remains when love, memory, and identity intersect.

Back to when my goofy bros & I made goofy videos. Demo tapes to MTV, YouTube, well before algorithms, AI and metrics mattered. For the love of the moment, the laughs and the memories shared

Life was simpler those days!

Before the Lanterns season finale, I gotta give this series its flowers.

John Stewart has been my favorite comic hero since I was a kid, so seeing him get this kind of love on screen has been special. And now we’re living in a world where folks know who MOGO is! 🌏 🔥

As a lifelong Green Lantern fan, regardless of how it goes it’s been real @greenlantern
