ABOUT TARYN SOUTHERN
Taryn Southern is a storyteller, strategist, artist and speaker whose work explores the intersection of emerging technology and human potential. Taryn released the world’s first AI-composed pop album (2017), directed and produced an award-winning documentary on brain-computer interfaces (2019), produced an award-winning Google VR series, and became one of the earliest content creators to create an AI-avatar of herself (2020.) Taryn is currently an advisor to Blackrock Neurotech and speaks at companies and conferences on how to use artificial intelligence to unlock creativity, productivity and possibility. Taryn has always had a front row seat to the future. A pioneering YouTuber, she uploaded her first video to YouTube in 2007 - and it went viral. Ten years and 750 million views later, Taryn produced more than 1500 pieces of digital content for networks like Conde Naste, The Today Show, MTV, Snapchat, and Maker Studios, written for Business Insider and TechCrunch and served as a host for Discovery Channel’s #1 late night show.
