Hello creatives. I'm Diorana Penn. And this is episode number 549 of the podcast. And it is Wednesday,

the 5th of May 2021 as I record this.

In today's show, I'm talking to Ash Fontana about the AI-powered business. Artificial intelligence is already part of our lives in the tools and services we use every day. As AI development

accelerates, how can authors and small businesses

use it as leverage to expand income and opportunity? We talk about how AI development has

accelerated due to the pandemic, how natural language generation and other aspects of AI can

help authors with marketing and content creation,

and how AI could help stop plagiarism, which we would all really like,

as well as licensing works in copyright for training AI models

and the impact of AI on copyright law, generative adversarial networks or GANS,

and why we both still have a positive view of an AI

powered future. So that is coming up in the interview segment. Now I haven't done a

futurist segment on the main show for a while. So I wanted to do a little update on what's

been happening in the AI for writing space.

Because things have been happening, I just thought I'd separate out my future stuff into

these extra in-betweenisodes. So first of all, digital trends reports on the current state of GPT3.

And of course, I've done several shows talking about GPT3, so you can go back and listen to them

if you want to.
