    358: Love Is For Those Who Love the Work

    AI was supposed to do our chores while we write prose and compose symphonies. Why is it composing our music and writing our books now, while WE do the chores? As software founders, we have a special responsibility — after all, we're the ones crafting a new reality of AI empowerment. But here's the thing: an AI does not love its work. It can't. And that's a problem. Today, I'll dive into how we can solve this. Oh, and before you get into it: Podscan is running a 30%-off Black Friday Deal — use "BLACKFRIDAY" during checkout for a full year of discount on any plan.
