Every Creative Is Panicking About AI. He Isn't.

I keep hearing the same fear on repeat: AI is going to hollow out creative work. 

I feel it too. I've got kids about to start college, and it keeps me up at night. Then I watched a talk by David Lee, the chief creative officer at Squarespace, who argues almost the opposite: that creativity is the only job left once the machines take the rest. 

Around the same time I heard the writer Dave Eggers on the Wild Card podcast say something I can't shake – that you're one of one, and handing your voice to a machine is a crime against yourself. 

This episode is me thinking out loud about where those two ideas meet, why I stopped leaning on AI to develop my scripts, and where I think it can still genuinely help.
