With a remarkable track record in the industry, Porto's work has garnered widespread acclaim, establishing him as a standout in the field.

"Seamless integration is just the beginning. It's about collaborating with AI models, working together like a trusted companion. This partnership allows artists to push boundaries and bring clients' ideas to life. It's not just about running models; it's about bridging the gap between artists and AI. Having an AI partner sets us apart from those who merely execute models. It all starts with leadership, and I've been embracing this approach in recent projects, constantly pushing for more." said Thiago Porto.

"Thiago Porto's return further emphasizes the Mill's dedication to investment in creative technology. Embracing how technology is changing the way we create content having artists like Thiago is imperative to our future.
