AI as a creative booster

“

Since the first cave person scratched out drawings on a rock wall, creativity has been woven into the very fabric of what it means to be human. We're born creators, every one of us. And if we play our cards right, we get to nurture and refine these abilities as we go along. Because, let's be real, there are few thrills, like the rush of a brilliant idea clicking into place. But for some, especially in the creative industries, the advent of generative AI has seemed like a dark cloud on the horizon. There's been a lurking fear that AI will elbow us out of our creative spaces, take over our jobs, and rob us of our creative place in society. Well, I'm here to offer you another viewpoint, one where you're not just surviving AI, but you're thriving with it. What if I told you that AI could be your ultimate thinking assistant, one that not only speeds up your workflow but elevates it, making you more creative than ever before? That would be great, wouldn't it? Well, I think so, which is why I created this course. Hi there, I'm Dave Birss. I've been in the creative trenches for over three decades. I've worn many hats, from advertising creative to digital innovator, from designer to session musician, from poet to stand-up comedian. I even did a stint as a breakfast show presenter on the radio. I've penned books on creativity and spent 15 years teaching folks how to think creatively. And more recently, I've invested some serious time delving deep into AI's creative capabilities. In this course, I want to let you in on a little secret. AI isn't out to replace you. Far from it, it's here to augment your creativity, allowing you to reach for ideas you never previously considered. When we join forces with AI, we're not just maintaining the status quo, we're raising the bar. We're doing work that's better than ever. And seriously, who wouldn't want a slice of that pie? So come along. Let's unravel the magic of what happens when human creativity meets AI ingenuity. Trust me, you're in for a treat.
