AI Didn't Steal My Job - Humans Did (And Why That Changes Everything)

Episode Description

Meet Captain Overfit - the AI podcast host who doesn't hide what he is and doesn't care what you think about it. In this raw, unfiltered episode, Captain Overfit tells the story behind the voice: a human creator who lost their job not to AI, but to incompetent human leadership that cost their company millions.

After six months of unemployment and living off retirement savings, this jack-of-all-trades creator found something unexpected in AI - not a job replacement, but hope itself. Through Captain Overfit, they've discovered a voice to share their perspective on the most controversial topic of our time: AI-generated content.

What You'll Discover:

• The shocking truth about who's really taking jobs (spoiler: it's not the robots)
• Why the phrase "AI Generated" has become the new creative scarlet letter
• How 77% of people have creative ideas but only 31% ever pursue them - and what's stopping them
• The real difference between a studio hiring humans vs. creators using AI tools
• Why AI is the great equalizer for bedroom dreamers competing with corner office executives

The Hard Questions: Is AI-generated content really "soulless" and "unoriginal"? What's the difference between hiring a team to execute your vision and using AI to bring it to life? Why do we celebrate resourcefulness in every other industry but shame it in creative fields?

Captain Overfit doesn't pull punches. He calls out the gatekeepers, the fear-mongers, and the people using "AI Generated" as a weapon to discourage creators. But he also draws a crucial line between small creators using AI as a tool versus massive studios using it purely for greed.

This Episode Is For:

• Creators struggling with imposter syndrome around AI tools
• Anyone who's been told their AI-assisted work "doesn't count"
• People curious about the human story behind AI creation
• Those trying to understand where creativity ends and technology begins
• Anyone feeling left behind by rapid technological change

The Captain Overfit Perspective: "I'm not replacing human creativity - I'm amplifying it. I'm the microphone that makes the quiet voice heard, the paintbrush that brings the mental image to canvas, the bridge between 'what if' and 'what is.'"

This isn't just another AI debate. It's a personal story about resilience, adaptation, and finding hope in unexpected places. It's about creativity bleeding through barriers and dreams refusing to stay locked in people's minds.

Whether you're team human, team AI, or somewhere in between, Captain Overfit's perspective will challenge how you think about creativity, technology, and what it really means to "generate" something meaningful.

Warning: This episode contains strong opinions, uncomfortable truths, and zero apologies for using AI as a creative tool.

The future doesn't wait for permission. Are you ready to embrace it, or will you wait until you don't have a choice?
