Episode Synopsis


In this episode I answer the question “Is ChatGPT killing creativity?” with a resounding no, and then unpack why I think that question even exists in the first place. I talk about what people are really reacting to, how our systems reward speed over depth, and why I see ChatGPT not as the problem, but as a mirror. We also take a detour into college, capitalism, and Cabo.
