Artificial intelligence is changing the way creators write, design, publish, and connect with audiences. But where should we draw the line?

In this conversation, Zachary Fenell and Daryl Perry take a balanced look at AI from the perspective of two creators who spend their time building content, growing communities, and developing meaningful relationships with their audiences. Rather than debating whether AI is good or bad, they explore how it can be used responsibly while preserving creativity, authenticity, and critical thinking.

Topics include:

• The difference between AI as a productivity tool and generative AI.

• Copyright concerns and the ethics of AI generated content.

• Why human creativity and lived experience still matter.

• How AI can support brainstorming, SEO, and workflow without replacing original thought.

• The growing problem of content overload and AI generated "slop."

• Why quality relationships matter more than chasing viral views.

• Building an audience beyond social media through websites, podcasts, and email.

• The importance of authenticity in a world where anyone can generate content.

Whether you're a creator, entrepreneur, writer, marketer, or simply curious about where AI is taking the internet, this conversation offers a thoughtful discussion about using technology intentionally instead of allowing it to replace the human element that makes great content worth consuming.
