On this episode, Geoffrey chats with Tesäen “T” Chavis, Product Manager, Music Promotion and Gen AI Video at YouTube, who shares how generative video tools are empowering artists—and why she measures success by kindness and naps.
From starting college at 15 to leading zero-to-one products (focusing on building something unique and valuable, rather than copying current solutions) at YouTube, T Chavis has always chased possibilities. In this powerful conversation, T details her journey through pharma comms, data-driven marketing at L’Oréal, and product roles at Spotify and Uber before landing at YouTube to revolutionize music promotion with generative AI video.
T explains how creators can treat AI as a “sous-chef,” speeding post-production and unlocking visuals never seen before, while still valuing human craft. She also opens up about imposter syndrome, advocating for yourself in boardrooms, and redefining success around mental health, inclusion, and—yes—epic naps.
T shares:
- How Unlock AI video workflows you can try today—no prompt engineering PhD required.
- The inside story of building zero-to-one products at tech giants like Google, Spotify, and Uber.
- How to combat imposter syndrome
- To Redefine success around peace, kindness, and sustainable creativity.
By episode’s end, you’ll have practical tips for leveling up your AI literacy and a fresh perspective on purposeful innovation.
T is passionate about harnessing emerging tech to empower artists, as she champions diversity, inclusion, global travel, karaoke, and the restorative power of a good nap.
