What happens when AI becomes more than a tool and starts becoming part of the creative process itself?
On this episode of Building AI Boston, we sit down with Michael Gilday, Founder, CEO, and Executive Creative Director of Deep Vibe, to explore the evolving relationship between human imagination and artificial intelligence.
Michael’s career has crossed television, radio, advertising, technology, and creative leadership, including early production work on ABC’s Lost and leadership roles at companies including Pegasystems and DataRobot. Today, he and his team at Deep Vibe are exploring an entirely new kind of storytelling through Taste Networks, The District, and WRXLnoise, where AI characters, shared memory, custom technology, and human creative direction come together to build living fictional worlds.
We talk with Michael about why taste, context, and human judgment may become even more important as AI gets more powerful, how small creative teams can now build experiences that once required massive organizations, and why the conversation around AI shouldn’t only focus on what might go wrong, but also on what humans might be able to create.
We also explore Boston’s role in the rapidly growing AI ecosystem, the importance of bringing technologists and creatives together, and what Michael believes the next generation of AI-powered storytelling and experiences could look like.
Can AI amplify human imagination rather than replace it? And are we entering an era where stories no longer have to end?
Join us for a conversation about creativity, technology, storytelling, and the possibilities emerging when humans and AI build together.
Building AI Boston explores the people, companies, ideas, and technologies shaping the future of artificial intelligence in Boston and beyond.

Boston has no shortage of people building ambitious AI products. The harder part is turning those ideas into companies and technologies that can actually work, scale, and succeed inside an enterprise.
What does it take to build an AI ecosystem that starts in one place but reaches far beyond it?
In this exciting episode of Building AI Boston, hosts Anna and Chris sit down with AI marketing strategist, speaker, and entrepreneur Molly Mahoney to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming the way businesses connect, communicate, and grow.
AI is really good at coming up with plans. It's not always great at executing them. David Wong thinks that gap is the whole story for legal AI right now, and it's why Thomson Reuters has been building the way they have.
Traditional conferences put everyone in one venue and hand them a ticket. Tech Week flips it: hundreds of events across a city, hosted by whoever wants to host, all on a single calendar. Rose Johnson thinks this format gives the power back to creators, and Boston is about to find out what that looks like. Rose is a marketing partner at Andreessen Horowitz, where she leads Tech Week, a16z's decentralized conference series that started in LA in 2022 and has expanded to four cities. Boston is the newest. They set an internal goal of 500 events for the debut. They blew past 600. We recorded ahead of Boston Tech Week (May 26 to 31), which runs back-to-back with New York Tech Week so attendees can do both.
