I gave up a dream modeling contract 10 years ago to pursue PhD in Computer Science. 10 years later, having my degree and a job I absolutely love, I decided to give it a try again. And I’m happy to share that today I signed to an model agency 🥰 This feels just surreal.
Thank you @Daisy4ai and @kirbyman01 from @a16z for mentioning @mirrormirror_ai in your new investment thesis on AI x Online Shopping. I’ve been a huge believer in how AI can transform the fashion and online shopping landscape throughout my career, and it’s so encouraging to be…
📣 New @a16z thesis: AI x Online Shopping Shopping used to be a hunt. With AI, it’s ‘God Mode’ - personalized picks come to you. We're seeing online shopping is becoming intelligent, predictive and visually intuitive. A few ways @kirbyman01 and I are seeing this play out👇
Proud of my boyfriend for stepping into this new chapter. Lucky to witness his journey firsthand. ♥️
This is what I sent to my colleagues at OpenAI: Hi all, I made the difficult decision to leave OpenAI as an employee, but I’m looking to work closely together as a partner going forward. Contributing to the mission of OpenAI and working with world-class teams to create and…
Finally about to start approving the guest list for @mirrormirror_ai's Fashion & AI event at @Techweek_! The waitlist is a lot longer than we expected, and we're keeping things intimate (with the best cocktails). If you think you should absolutely be there, DM me and let me know…

As AI moves from trend to tool, the question isn’t if luxury should engage with it — but how. ⠀ We unpack why the luxury fashion industry is not just ready for AI, but uniquely positioned to shape its use with intention, creativity, and control.
An investor once pressured me to meet him at a hotel at night. I said no. I asked if we could meet during the day, at a coffee shop or in an office. He replied: “If you’re serious about this, you’ll meet me on my terms.” That’s just one of many moments I’ve stayed silent…
AI isn’t replacing creatives. It’s extending their reach. What we’re seeing isn’t replacement — it’s evolution. Tools evolve. But vision? That’s human. Let’s rethink the narrative.
vogue.co.jp/article/innova… Still processing this — Vogue Japan just published a full piece on my work at the intersection of AI and fashion. In the interview, I spoke about how AI can support personal expression in fashion. As someone who grew up obsessing over Japanese fashion…
✨ I’m so excited to introduce Try on Your Vibe by @mirrormirror_ai! ✨ Forget mannequins—see yourself in editorial-level, aspirational try-ons, like you just stepped out of a high-fashion photoshoot. Why this is different: ⚡️ Realtime image generation—no more waiting days for…
Don't remember how I got work done before Deep Research.
We're expanding deep research to more users today! The initial feedback from our Pro users has been incredible (thanks!) and we think deep research is an excellent demonstration of how reasoning models unlock reliable agents. Next, we will continue to expand the reach of this…
Our first retail partnership project, powered by @mirrormirror_ai’s Wardrobe Extraction engine, is launching soon. 👗 Huge shoutout to my team for their relentless effort—watching it come to life is so rewarding! ✨ This marks the first of many projects showcasing our AI…

Big things are happening at @mirrormirror_ai ✨ We’re kicking off a pilot with a top-tier fashion publication to bring AI-driven styling to editorial. Can’t reveal who just yet, but it’s going to be a game-changer. 👀
#NYFW SS26 @nvidia accessories for the unforgettable
Didn’t know starting a fashion & ai startup means I get to attend fashion shows at nyfw 🤭

We already have a quick pace of improvement on challenging benchmarks (4o at 3%, o1 at 9%, deep research at 27% in humanity's last exam), but expect further acceleration as AI becomes an even larger contributor to future AI development
Two years ago, while I was still working my corporate job, I dreamed of hosting a @Techweek_ event for my startup—and yesterday, that dream became a reality! 🥳 We kept the crowd intentionally small to foster meaningful conversations, and I think it was a success! I’m still in…

no billboard? no problem welcome to SF, ladies and gents
o1 was made possible by lots of immigrants on o1 and I think that's beautiful
