What does it mean to build an “ethical AI?” That’s exactly what we’re exploring in our latest episode with @paultrillo
Paul is the co-founder of @asteriafilmco, who are training AI tools built exclusively on licensed footage — meaning there’s no stolen art in their models.
Paul also directed “The Most Perfect Perfect Person” starring musician @impoppy, which explores the idea of Poppy cloning herself with AI.
This is the final episode of our series the AI Debate, link to watch the full interview in bio.
The day has come. After an imperfect, unexpected delay… The Most Perfect Perfect Person will be live today.
Starring @impoppy as Poppy
Link in bio. You know what to do.
The Most Perfect Perfect Person featuring @impoppy is online tomorrow… thanks for standing by. Everything will be all right there.
CASE STUDY 002 – ETHEREA.
A collaboration between @PaulTrillo and @hok, ETHEREA is a dance between convergence and impermanence.
“The project came out of a curiosity to do something unique to generative tools while keeping a uniquely human touch. The play between figurative and abstraction was inspired by the pareidolia phenomenon in which our eye hallucinates imagery out of the randomness in nature.”
See the full breakdown on Asteria’s YouTube.
The Most Perfect Perfect Person starring @impoppy is coming online next week.

ETHEREA was a special project for me, a collaboration with my pal @hok about the beauty of impermanence. The project came out of a curiosity to do something unique to generative tools while keeping a uniquely human touch. It also came out of my desire to revisit past techniques with an entirely new approach.
Enjoy. :)
