Ben and Sara sit down with Mariam Naficy, the founder and CEO of ⁠Arcade⁠, an AI physical product creation platform. Arcade allows users to design their own custom products - from rugs to scarves to jewelry - using AI. Prior to Arcade, Mariam founded Minted, an online marketplace for premium design goods, famous for popularizing design-forward stationary. 

Mariam discusses how she started and sold an e-commerce company right before the dot-com bubble burst, how Minted nearly failed before becoming a company valued at hundreds of millions of dollars, and how she and her team at Arcade are using AI to make the future of online shopping more creative and personal.

Ben and Sara sit down with Jason Toff, the founder and CEO of Things, Inc. - the maker of ⁠⁠Rooms⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Mixup⁠⁠. Rooms is an app that allows users to make and share 3D interactive spaces, and Mixup is a Mad Libs-style app that allows users to create inventive AI images.

Jason discusses how he went from being a product manager at companies like Google and Twitter to founding Things, Inc., why it's important to build cozy technology and games, and how to use AI to help people exercise their creativity.
