It’s Time For an Upgrade — How Creatives Can Think About and Use AI to Thrive vs Becoming Obsolete w/ Peter Bittner

AI is being throw around everywhere lately. It can be overwhelming. Honestly, we're a bit sick of hearing about it. It often leaves us feeling behind or stressed about our hard-earned skills becoming obsolete.

Today, we talk to Peter Bittner, an award-winning multimedia journalist and media strategist, who's work has been featured in The New York Times, CNN, and other major outlets.

A Fulbright Scholar and UC Berkeley lecturer in new media, he's passionate about learning, utilizing, and teaching the latest tech tools for powerful storytelling. Through The Upgrade, Peter offers a free newsletter & podcast, AI courses for storytellers, and AI consulting services.

It was a breath of fresh air hearing his experience and perspective on how to align ourselves with AI responsibly without dampening human creativity and experience.
