In this episode of "ThinkFuture," I dig into the eternal struggle every creator faces: making what you love versus what the crowd wants. Picture a Venn diagram—one circle’s your passion project as a content creator (think podcaster, TikToker, artist), the other’s what goes viral with millions of views. Problem is, they rarely overlap! I talk about how creators pour their hearts into work that often stays unseen, while algorithms push crowd-pleasers—stuff that’s made to go viral, sometimes even using AI to predict what’ll pop off. But should artists have to compromise their vision just to get noticed? I say nah—there’s a better way. We need smarter algorithms, search engines, and AI that can connect awesome, unique content with the right audience without forcing creators to chase trends. It’s time for tech to step up and make those Venn circles overlap, so great work doesn’t stay hidden and fans don’t miss out. YouTube crew, let’s dream up a future where creators and consumers actually connect!---brought to you by polyscopemedia: https://polyscopemedia.com
