This thought-provoking conversation will explore topics like generative AI use cases and potential societal pitfalls; social commerce and the fastest growing audience platform, TikTok, now being used for product discovery and design; understanding the metaverse “post-mortem” to leverage the few good bits like AR/VR/mixed reality; and how the current economic outlook plays in the constantly shifting consumer and retail landscape.
