AI has upped the game for artists and writers. Are you afraid of being left behind?

In this episode, Nathan Segal joins Tim to talk about his journey from being fired from his job at a school (with no prospects) to building a prolific career with 1,027+ published articles and 13 books. Nathan shares how AI is transforming creative work, how he accidentally discovered a business in adult colouring books, and the ethical dilemmas of using AI for content creation.

He also breaks down his creative process for generating stunning AI-assisted artwork, the unexpected roadblocks, and the massive opportunities for entrepreneurs and creators willing to embrace AI.
