Storytelling will save us | Coffee & Click, episode 18
Since starting this project earlier this year, one topic of conversation has come up more often than the others: AI. Especially when talking with other creatives.
It unavoidable. It's caused such a major disruption in our world in a short period of time. Many creative endeavours have been side-tracked by it.
Unfortunately, writer and communications specialist Karen Allen has seen her business be disrupted by AI. Like many, she has been forced to adapt and change course because of it.
Like me, Karen believes there are 2 domains where AI has yet to catch up to us mere creative mortals, which are storytelling and human connections. We both believe that these will be what saves us, ultimately, because the machines aren't able to replicate them.
Yet. And let's hope that doesn't change anytime soon. But that's up to all of us, as a society, ultimately.
Thank you for the great conversation, Karen! It was a pleasure to meet you. And thank you to Sofia Vintage Motor Café for hosting us.
