The Future of Creativity: Brian Brushwood on AI, Art & the Human Heart
Description
Artificial intelligence can write, draw, replicate, and remix. But can it create? Can it feel? Can it speak to the human heart?
In this episode of Todd Liles & The Wizard of Ads, Brian Brushwood joins Todd and Roy to explore one of the biggest questions of our time:
What happens to creativity when machines can do the work of artists… faster than ever?
This is not a technical conversation about AI tools.
It's a philosophical deep dive into meaning, authenticity, and the soul behind every story.
Brian breaks down:
-
why AI-generated art often feels hollow
-
what "authenticity" really means in a machine-made world
-
the human instinct for emotional truth and symbolic meaning
-
why vulnerability still beats perfection
-
how creators can use AI without losing their voice
-
and what the future looks like for writers, artists, and storytellers
Roy brings the timeless perspective. Brian brings the creator's honesty. Todd brings the operator's clarity.
Together, they outline the future of creativity — and why the human heart still matters more than ever.
If you've felt excited, threatened, inspired, or confused by AI… this episode will ground you.
