The Minesweeper team focuses on deriving rich descriptions of talk and music — including genres, guests, and finer-grained structures like chapters. Following the recent AI Foundation Studio re-org, the team brings together Music Descriptor expertise from Tectonic and audiobooks/podcasts understanding from Hulk. The team is scaling backend systems that power music and talk descriptors and other derived metadata, supporting high-priority company bets and delivering directly to the ETeam.
