The Writing Renaissance: Tony Stubblebine on Medium’s Human Future in the Age of AI
Description
What if AI could make us better writers instead of replacing us? The next chapter of the internet may do exactly that by using technology to strengthen creativity rather than erase it.
Tony Stubblebine, CEO of Medium, joins The Media Copilot with Pete Pachal to talk about the new reality of writing in an AI world. As algorithms reshape how stories are created and shared, Stubblebine believes we are entering a writing renaissance where technology helps writers stay focused, authentic, and connected to their readers.
They explore:
- The collapse of free-content economics and the rise of the post-Google internet
- Why Medium is betting on smaller, more human writing communities
- How AI can enhance creativity rather than erase it
- The tools that will keep writers in flow and make the act of writing joyful again
If you care about creativity, technology, and the future of storytelling, this is a conversation you should not miss.
