I was a Cinema Studies major at university and moved to New York City to be a part of the founding editorial team at Indiewire. I subsequently became a graphic designer in the fashion business before retraining and returning to the tech space, now working as a Solutions Engineer at beehiiv.

Like many, ever since Artificial Intelligence burst into the world with the release of ChatGTP in November 2022, I’ve been curious about what this meant for creative people … would it replace us or be a new tool in the creative arsenal like so many technologies that preceded it. I’m not a technology doomsayer, so this newlsetter was created to investigate how AI will change creativity.

While this everything about this newsletter will be created with human guidance, I will attempt (to a certain extent) to use AI in every aspect of the creation of this site and its content … the name, slug line, logo, color scheme have all been created by AI (with human prompting). I will always clarify which content (like this) is being written by a human and what is AI-generated. I asked the AI to give itself a common name and it chose “Artie”, a diminutive of the word “Artificial”. So off we go!
