A podcast about the possibilities and challenges of AI-generated art, exploring its impact on accessibility, collaboration, and the enduring importance of human creativity.
What does it mean to create art in the age of generative AI? On the latest episode of Good Question, we sit down with Inscribe Staff Product Designer Patrick Cusack and CTO Conor Burke to explore the possibilities and challenges of AI-generated art. From its impact on accessibility and collaboration to the enduring importance of human creativity, this conversation highlights the evolving intersection of technology and art.
“The important factor is really the taste someone has—what they’re making, the message they’re communicating,” Patrick explained. “In the past, we might have appreciated something for its technical excellence, but now it’s about what you’re saying.”
“You can’t defer your creativity to the AI model. You have to work with it,” Patrick said.
“We’re in a time of disequilibrium between creators and AI developers,” Conor said. “The long-term goal should be rewarding and recognizing creators while enabling innovation.”
The panel shared advice for artists who are interested in incorporating generative AI tools within their creative process.
Generative AI is transforming the way we think about art, creativity, and self-expression. As Patrick aptly put it:
“The important thing when it comes to making AI-generated artworks is the message you have. [Because technical ability is no longer a differentiator], the message becomes the thing that’s most important.”
The episode left listeners inspired by the possibilities AI brings to the art world while emphasizing the enduring importance of human creativity and intent.
