Founder Field Notes
Founder Field Notes is where Chengxi writes from inside the process of building AI, with a focus on how intelligence is changing around us.
Her notes look at artificial intelligence alongside human judgement, creativity, intelligence in nature, and the collective intelligence that emerges when people, systems and societies interact.
These notes are not only about technology. They ask a more personal question: as intelligence takes new forms around us, how do we understand ourselves, our responsibilities and the future we are helping to create?
SEEN
SEEN is a cultural platform founded by Chengxi for women working across technology, art, business and ideas.
It has two formats: a podcast for multidisciplinary conversations, and selective gatherings for women thinking seriously about technology, culture and what comes next.
Through conversations, salon dinners and editorial gatherings, SEEN brings together founders, creators, technologists, artists and thinkers.
SEEN is not a traditional networking club. It is a space for considered dialogue, cultural depth and meaningful connection.
