With AI-generated art on the rise in mainstream industries like the music industry (see the new Linkin Park video below), today we’re asking:
what can we do to make sure artists and creatives don’t lose out to AI? And how are fellow creatives feeling about this?

The countdown has begun to the world premiere of “Lost” music video tomorrow at 9pm PST. Set your reminder for the YouTube premiere: lprk.co/lostvideo

Rest is a key part of the creative process!
Refreshing to hear Farouk Alao (@farouk_858) talking with Ashwin (@whackochacko) about how important it is to take some time out to avoid creative burnout.
