Ted and Charlie welcome Ori Inbar, who is celebrating AWE's 15th anniversary by moving the June 18 - 20 show from Silicon Valley to Long Beach. In the news, big raises for Pika Labs ($80M) and Twelve Labs ($50M) that can understand video. Wevr, maker of the seminal VR experience The Blu, raises $3.5M. The CEO of Sony Pictures says he is "all in" on cinematic AI. Amidst layoffs in Microsoft mixed reality, Micrososft admits the fate of the HoloLens is in the hands of the US Army. With Ori, we discussed the move to Long Beach, which will draw more of an LA crowd, his famous keynotes and tech tricks, the vision pro, the AWE Hall of Fame, and the best of AWE over the years. Palmer Lucky says he is making a new VR headset, to be revealed at the show.
