    23. Podcasting isn't dominated by AI, it’s inundated by it.

    Can we stop saying “in a World dominated by AI”? It’s not dominated by it, it’s inundated by it. No cares about (or for) the slop, except perhaps the psychopaths pumping the slop.

In this episode, Josh listens to three random Podcast episodes from Inception Point AI and shares his thoughts on their quality.

If Books Could Kill: https://www.ifbookspod.com/ .... The Original Article (in-full). If you ever find yourself feeling down about your show, or wondering if making a Podcast is really worth the effort, I recommend spending a week or two focussing your energies on the shows that you love most as a Podcast Fan, instead of obsessing over your own show and its current successes, or lack thereof. If you reverse your creative focus from outside-in (what can the medium do for me?) to inside-out (what can I do for the medium?), you will feel better about Podcasting as a creative medium, and that will help get you feel better about Podcasting as a creative outlet for yourself. I'm confident that you will go back to your show with renewed focus, positivity, and excitement. It all sounds a bit woo-woo, right? But it works, trust me! These periods of inside-out focus have saved both my Podcasts and also me as a Podcaster many times over the past 13 years - I've felt like quitting a lot, and haven't thanks to getting-over-myself and being a better Podcast Fan.
