Tonia Samsonova discusses the challenges that artists face with AI and copyright issues. She shares her solution of giving artists the ability to train their own AI algorithms, allowing for a more diverse and decentralised AI landscape.
Tonia Samsonova is a serial entrepreneur and founder with a successful eight-figure exit. Currently she is the founder of exactly.ai, a platform enabling artists to train their AI models and monetise their unique aesthetics by leveraging their audience. Before that, she was a product leader at Yandex, a search engine company, and led a COVID-19 response initiative with a daily audience of 50 million. Her team's work on this project was shortlisted for Cannes Lions and earned European awards for creative data usage. Before becoming an entrepreneur, Tonia was a journalist and news editor.
