S11 Bonus: The Real-Time Generative Video Race: Breaking the Speed Barrier and Shipping LTX Foundation Models to Millions of Creators with Ofir Bibi, VP of Research at Lightricks
Jun 26, 2025 · Season 11 · 34 min
Helping the video creatives build more, through foundational models
Ofir Bibi grew up in Jerusalem, and is where he is today because of his love for photography. He has always been a tinkerer, taking apart of radios and such, and was drawn to the early days of training neural networks and computational photography. He spent a number of years in academia, but eventually was drawn outside of that world. Outside of tech, he is married with 3 boys who play sports. His family is surrounded by nature, so they enjoy biking and walking as much as they can.
In 2012, a company was formed around bridging the gap between imagination and creation, through video, apps, and studio grade tools. Ofir recently celebrated 10 years with the company, and came in with the title "Neural Networks" guy.
This is Ofir's creation story of Lightricks.
