  • Assaf Elovic Takes on the SMB AI Revolution

    Assaf Elovic Takes on the SMB AI Revolution
    Dec 9 2025
    What does “Head of AI” actually mean inside a company like Monday.com and why are SMBs such an insane AI opportunity? In this episode, Eden talks with Assaf Elovic, Head of AI at Monday.com, about bringing a massive SaaS company from “almost no AI” to AI products that ship real value across millions of users. Assaf shares how his role evolved from a 0→1 “startup inside Monday” to building an internal AI platform and culture the whole company can build on. They break down why AI is 10% model, 90% workflows and culture, and why SMBs don’t need more magical chatbots - they need AI that is transparent, constrained, and deeply tied to the way they already work. Assaf walks through Monday’s first failed AI co-pilot, why users didn’t know what to ask, and how they reversed course by killing the chat, embedding AI Blocks directly into boards, and then adding explainability and feedback to rebuild trust. From there, they zoom out to how Monday runs AI internally: AI Champions across departments, an “AI month” where everyone paused roadmaps to build AI, and a bottom-up culture where people share new papers and tools because they’re genuinely afraid to miss the next unlock. For founders, Assaf and Eden get tactical: Why risk analysis with generic LLMs backfired and what it taught them about subjective risk and domain-specific models How to think “business problem → research task → product,” instead of doing cool research and hoping it lands A simple framework for interviewing SMBs and finding a first workflow worth automating Why a two-person startup today should be obsessed with voice agents and narrow, high-value workflows If you’re building AI for real businesses, especially SMBs, this episode is a playbook on turning research into product, closing the trust loop with users, and using AI to actually do the work, not just manage it.

  • Zeev Farbman Takes on Real-Time Diffusion Models

    Zeev Farbman Takes on Real-Time Diffusion Models
    Nov 26 2025
    What if video wasn’t a file you export, but a service that responds to every viewer in real time? In this episode, Eden Shochat talks with Lightricks co-founder & CEO Zeev Farbman about LTX 2, their real-time video diffusion model that runs on edge devices (phones and gaming GPUs) instead of giant cloud data centers. They break down: Why “every pixel is programmable” is the real story behind diffusion models How we got from Facetune to a real-time video engine Why edge AI might beat cloud APIs for the next wave of products China’s open-weight strategy vs the West’s closed, API-first approach What happens when you can personalize every ad impression with generated video Why foundation models are a fast-depreciating asset and where the real moats will be How Lightricks thinks about being both a product company and a platform/API The coming shift from blank 3D scenes to “never start from scratch” creative workflows The sci-fi idea from Neal Stephenson’s Diamond Age that Zeev would build as a startup today If you’re a founder, engineer, or creator thinking about the future of video, gaming, or adtech, this episode is a playbook for what’s now possible when real-time, per-user video runs on everyday hardware.

  • Nir Hemed Takes on Semi-Autonomous Agents

    Nir Hemed Takes on Semi-Autonomous Agents
    Nov 11 2025
    Property management is a brutal business: low margins, endless paperwork, and human bottlenecks everywhere. So what happens when you give AI agents the keys? In this episode of Almost Human, Eden Shochat sits with Nir Hemed, co-founder and CTO of Daisy, a New York–based startup reimagining property management through AI. Nir reveals how Daisy built a team of ten autonomous agents - each with names, roles, and Slack access, and how one of them, “Steven,” now handles complex onboarding processes once run entirely by humans. Eden and Nir unpack what it means to design trust between humans and agents, how to build eval frameworks that become a company’s secret IP, and why the future of work isn’t just automation - it’s orchestration. From Temporal workflows to generative UIs and “AI coworkers,” this episode dives into the scaffolding era of AI: where humans teach machines how to manage, reason, and evolve. Key takeaway: The companies that win in this era won’t be the ones that collect the most data, they’ll be the ones that build the best feedback loops.
