Helen Todd

Helen Todd is the first resident in Cincinnati, OH, to digitally clone herself. She co-founded Sociality Squared, a social media agency established in 2010 in New York City, when social media was just emerging to help brands grow their businesses. She was at the forefront of a disruptive technology then, and now is leading the way yet again with Creativity Squared, a free weekly newsletter, podcast, and YouTube channel exploring how creatives are collaborating with artificial intelligence. Her new platform fosters critical discussions around A.I., like the future of ethical synthetic media exemplified by her digital avatar.
 
Guests have included the head of Adobe's Content Authenticity Initiative, the founder of Stability AI's Harmonai, the 2023 SXSW XR Winner, and the head of programming of SXSW. Creativity Squared ignites our collective imagination at the intersection of A.I. and creativity to envision a world where artists not only coexist with A.I., but thrive.
 
Because it’s important to support artists, 10% of all revenue Creativity Squared generates supports ArtsWave’s Black and Brown Artist Program elevating underrepresented voices and bridging cultural divides through art.  
 
Helen is an award-winning marketer, international speaker, and an advisor and speaker for SXSW Interactive. She graduated from Xavier University and holds a Master’s degree in Integrated Marketing Communication from Emerson College.
