Talking to Lovable founder Anton Osika on stage at Nordic Tech Week earlier today, we spoke about how Stockholm tech founders are well-known for giving back to the startup ecosystem, with capital and time. Osika told me that he was quite busy building Lovable and couldn't set aside too much time to invest in other founders. However, he and his cofounder Fabian Hedin have pledged 50% of future earnings to philanthropy. More here: https://lnkd.in/dwe7XdMZ

You probably thought this week was slow in the world of AI Film News, but is it ever a slow week? No. 😅 Just launched the latest episode of AI Film News and the craziest part is that Seedance is creating better generations than Veo 3. I, of course, did a deep dive into both tools. Check it out! Here are a few more updates. Check out the full video and news here: https://lnkd.in/gvU-gdfM Higgsfield AI now has the ability to upscale videos (using Topaz). It's phenomenal for upresing footage. 📽️ ElevenLabs launched Eleven Music. What sets this apart is that it is copyright-free music, so you are able to use this for professional projects. 🎹 I tested out Adobe Photoshop's new Harmonize tool and was super happy with the results. I tested both for a film project and an advertising project, and both outputs were so good! 🖼️ There's a New AI Video Generator (Boba Anime 1.3) that generates Anime videos. We are definitely going to need to compare this to MiniMax. 📺 Check out the link for more on this week's news, and enjoy the AI generated video of the squirrel where I tried to use as many AI tools as possible in onee video (just kidding, but went from Midjourney to Photoshop Generative Fill, to Photoshop Harmonize, to Seedance)

🚀✨ The New Era of Mini-Movie Creation Is Here 🎬 The world of storytelling is evolving at lightning speed. With the rise of text-to-video engines like Google’s Veo 3, Higgsfield, and MidJourney’s upcoming video tools, creators can now turn simple prompts into cinematic experiences. 🎥 What this means for creators: Mini-movies from text prompts – no camera, no crew, just imagination. Rapid prototyping for filmmakers – visualize entire scenes in minutes. Marketing & advertising – produce high-quality motion content faster than ever. Indie storytellers – bring worlds to life without Hollywood budgets. The line between imagination and film is blurring. We’re entering an age where anyone with a story can become a director. 🌌 🔥 Imagine writing: “A neon-lit cyberpunk alley with rain falling, a lone figure walks slowly toward a glowing portal” – and watching it become a living scene in seconds. The possibilities for short-form content, ads, storyboards, and full creative projects are endless. Credits: gizmoants #AIvideo #AI #veo3

Spotify is shuffling its leadership playlist. Founder Daniel Ek is stepping down as CEO of the music streaming giant after 19 years. Instead, he will become executive chair of the company. Alex Norstrom and Gustav Söderström will step up to fill his position, as co-CEOs – a leadership duo replacing the solo artist. Ek has said the change “simply matches titles to how we already operate”. It’s never easy for the founder to relinquish the CEO title, even if Ek says he will remain “deeply involved”, working on long-term strategy. On the one hand, Ek must be tired. Over the course of nearly two decades he has fought to build his global, billion-dollar business. He had to do it in the face of stiff competition from Apple. It was believed it had a near-monopoly on music streaming through iTunes. He waged a long campaign to challenge that assumption. It paid huge dividends. The final test of a great founder and leader, in many ways, is to choose his or her successor. Ben Francis MBE hired his replacement as CEO at Gymshark in 2015 after 3 years. I waited at Homeserve for 8 years before replacing myself as UK CEO. My success at Homeserve came from hiring great CEOs for each of our 10 countries and a great CEO for them to work for, when I ended up with too many direct reports. Founders are great at creating businesses, copying and pivoting until they get the right model and start growing. (Exactly what Ek did. Music streaming platforms were not a completely original idea. But he managed to make a standout product and executed it brilliantly.) My advice in these succession situations, when the founder steps away, is to hire a proven CEO with the right cultural fit to work with the founder to achieve exponential growth with fewer mistakes. It looks like Ek has built the right leadership playlist to do this. And he’s been CEO at the company he created for nearly two decades – few pop stars can sustain a career that long!

🚨 Generative AI just went from being a “tool” to being a teammate. ChatGPT → Veo3 → Nano Banana → now Sora 2. ChatGPT showed us the spark. Veo3 pushed video quality to cinematic levels. Nano Banana made image gen ridiculously good. Now Sora 2 is here and it’s not just a “tool.” It’s a creative partner. We’re moving past the stage where AI is just automating tasks. The new wave is about co-creation: ideation, iteration, and scaling at speeds humans alone can’t match. At Atria, we see this every day. - Campaigns that used to take weeks → done in hours. - Ad concepts that used to need 5 designers → now flow from one marketer with the right prompts. - Testing that used to drain budgets → now fueled by AI-driven creative sprints. The exciting part? This isn’t replacing creativity. It’s amplifying it. The best founders, marketers, and creators aren’t asking “Will AI replace us?” They’re asking: “How do I collaborate with AI to do what wasn’t possible before?”
