Is AI coming for your art career? OR is it actually the best time to be an artist?

In this episode of Bench Talk, Claire and I tackle one of the biggest questions artists are asking right now:

What does artificial intelligence mean for the future of art and artists?

Instead of feeding into the fear and uncertainty, we look at history to show you why THIS moment is actually an opportunity and some specific mindset shifts and actions you need to make right now.

You’ll hear Claire and I discuss:
⚡️ Why uncertainty triggers a freeze response and how to overcome it
⚡️ The predictable pattern with every major change throughout history
⚡️ How photography was supposed to kill painting but gave birth to
impressionism
⚡️ Why human-made art is about to become more valuable, not less
⚡️ The difference between AI art and human art: story, perspective, emotion
⚡️ Why artists are uniquely positioned to thrive in a tech-driven world
⚡️ The coming surge in art collectors, curators, gallery owners and creative roles
⚡️ Practical action steps to take right now
⚡️ Why showing your process and sharing your story matters
