Description

In this episode we sit down with Seth Godin to talk about:

  • Why AI is like the weather (and why arguing for or against it misses the point)
  • How he’s gone from 1 hour to 7 hours of daily creativity with AI
  • His “talking dog” theory and why most AI output is still just mayonnaise
  • Why he thinks community will be the scarce thing people actually pay for
  • How he uses Claude and ChatGPT differently—and why he believes Claude is a “close friend”
  • What creators should really be asking: how can AI make my work harder, not easier
  • His prediction for where humans will be in 10 years
  • … and more
