During New York Tech Week, founders of four AI startups shared insights on the future of consumer technology. Jenny Wang's Alta uses AI to personalize fashion choices, while Eliza Wu's Corner curates maps based on user interests. Clara Gold's Gigi connects users socially through insights from their online presence, and Fai Nur's Status offers Gen Z users experiential gaming scenarios. Together, they illustrate how startups can redefine technology in areas like fashion, navigation, and social interaction, significantly deviating from existing giants that are constrained by traditional models.
Existing search engines, they're very much beholden to existing stakeholders and existing revenue models, so Google Maps can't truly not show you a huge swath.
What these founders have in common is taking the technology that has so far powered huge transformation to productivity and using it to change how we interact with the 'fun' tech.
