Qinqin (Stella) Yang works across AI capability and creative practice. She builds workflows, systems, and creative direction that operate under real constraints, and designs speculative frameworks that expand what teams can imagine before they start making.
杨沁沁(Stella Yang)的工作横跨 AI 能力与创意实践。她搭建在真实约束下运作的工作流、系统与创意方向,同时也搭建未来情景框架,在落地之前帮助团队把想象推得更远。
Through her independent practice Actual Fiction, she develops AI-native systems, tools, and creative direction that turn imagination into a working method. The practice spans foresight, strategy, and scenario development, helping people find direction when there is no playbook yet.
