I'll show you how we trained our avatar algorithms from scratch across 4 generations. I collected and labeled our own 4K data and ran 3 to 6 month development cycles per model to get to studio quality. Along the way I developed a clear point of view on when to build our own model vs. when to partner with OpenAI, Anthropic, others: I build where I can own the quality and the pricing power, like avatars and face swap, and I partner where the field moves too fast to win on my own, like text-to-video and AI music. In this workshop I'll walk through how I decide what to build proprietary versus what to buy, and how to actually train models that justify premium pricing in a market racing to zero.
