Just had an awesome chat with Nick Harauz along with Izabela Russell on the Boris FX Flow State podcast! We covered so much good stuff - from the creative process of assembling audio to the current AI tools taking audio workflows to the next level. A few key takeaways: 🧠 Creativity is the ultimate expression of self - whether through audio, video, writing, or other mediums. 🌐 Consider how your audience might consume your audio (phones, noisy environments, etc.) and optimize accordingly. 🔮 AI is rapidly augmenting audio capabilities - cleaning audio, generating music/SFX, voice cloning, and more. Embrace the tools!

My goal for 2025 is to start exposing the more nuanced ways in which I believe technology is influencing our creativity, and overall ways of thinking. As it is explored in this wonderful podcast, what can we learn from new computing paradigms? (outside of corporate AI) and how it might open our eyes to all the beautiful ways of thinking that surround us in the natural world? https://lnkd.in/eWDX6iGP

In the latest episode of the Eurovision News Podcast, host Laurent Frat speaks with Prof. Alexandra Borchardt, PhD, lead author of the European Broadcasting Union's 2024 News Report, "Trusted Journalism in the Age of Generative AI," and me. We discuss how generative AI could be a game-changer for media accessibility and inclusiveness, yet it also presents significant challenges by diminishing the visibility of journalism. Our conversation also touches on the growing reliance on large tech conglomerates and the broader societal and environmental repercussions. We conclude with practical advice on the crucial role that journalists and media organizations must play in this evolving landscape. https://lnkd.in/eXTJyvgf

"In essence, a log reflects the unfolding of a reality. Because of this simplicity, it demands minimal changes to existing behaviour. Change is hard, and a log requires just a bit of extra attention at the time of the event, plus a small effort to capture context afterward. Its marginal cost is not much more than zero. You're already engaging with different media—books, films, TV, music, podcasts. You're already taking photos. You're already going places and doing nice things with different people. You're already eating and drinking. You're already using technology. A log simply transforms this existing engagement into an artefact of curation."

Recently, I listened to a fascinating podcast from Marketplace by APM that discussed "C-suite lingo"—the kind of language that only people in the inner circle know. We see this phenomenon in personal finance as well. At its core, personal finance is surprisingly simple, but we often complicate it with specialized language. As a result, only those who know this language can effectively navigate the complexities of the market. Todays, newsletter is about how we exclude people through language.
