Simon Horsman & Daniel Wood, Quilty.app","description":"<p>Cortney Harding steps in as guest co-host this week, joining Charlie to unpack a genuinely strong Meta Connect, new occluded VR glasses aimed squarely at the Vision Pro, a camera-free Ray-Ban, and Muse AI&#39;s surprise climb to the top of the app stores. From there, the conversation turns to Disney&#39;s newly created CTO role, the quiet fate of its big-money bets on Epic Games and Sora, and Jeffrey Katzenberg&#39;s open letter arguing entertainment has always been a technology business. They close out the news with a sharp exchange on Amazon&#39;s push into drone delivery and a pointed critique of DraftKings&#39; use of AI to target its most engaged, and most vulnerable, customers.</p><p><br></p><p>Simon Horsman and Daniel Wood, co-founders of Quilty.app, join to talk about building an AI-powered script coverage tool for screenwriters who have no access to Hollywood&#39;s traditional gatekeepers. The two walk through how Quilty scores a script the way a studio story analyst would, the leaderboard system built to surface strong writing, and a striking real-world comparison Simon shares from his years running a film fund: a big-budget historical epic north of $220 million versus a hybrid AI production covering similar ground for under a million dollars. The conversation closes with how Quilty is trying to connect writers directly to producers in a system that&#39;s traditionally shut most people out.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Key Moments:</strong></p><p> [01:35] A confident, glitch-free Meta Connect and what it signals</p><p> [11:35] Disney creates a company-wide CTO role, hired from Character AI</p><p> [13:35] The quiet status of Disney&#39;s Epic Games and Sora deals</p><p> [15:35] Jeffrey Katzenberg&#39;s open letter on tech and entertainment</p><p> [19:35] The backlash brewing over Amazon&#39;s drone delivery push</p><p> [21:35] DraftKings, AI, and the ethics of targeting engaged gamblers</p><p> [24:35] Simon Horsman and Daniel Wood join to introduce Quilty.app</p><p> [30:35] A real budget comparison: $220M studio epic vs. under $1M hybrid AI film</p><p> [34:35] How Quilty scores scripts and connects writers to producers</p><p><br></p><p>Brought to you by Zappar and Mattercraft, the leading visual development environment for immersive 3D web experiences.
