Tim Carter, a seasoned tech executive, lawyer, and collaboration coach, shares insights from his 25-year career at the intersection of business, law, and technology. With a background as an intellectual property lawyer and product strategist, Tim has played a key role in building technology-based ecosystems across various industries. Now focused on the media and creative sectors, Tim is working to develop best practices and ensure creatives are safeguarded when it comes to the use of AI in the creative and film industries.
In this episode, Tim discusses how AI is transforming filmmaking, particularly in areas like dubbing and dialogue replacement (the 'Monkey problem'), while emphasising that AI serves human creativity. He also addresses the challenges and ethical considerations of AI in the industry.
Takeaways
AI allows filmmakers to retain their creative choices while reaching broader audiences by providing seamless translations and lip-syncing in different languages (if you're old enough you'll remember the awful dubbing/syncing 'problem' on the original 1978 show 'Monkey').The use of AI in the film industry has positive impacts like quality when wanting to expand audience reach beyond language 'borders', and concerns i.e. potential job displacement.AI is a tool in service of human intent and creativity, enabling filmmakers to solve problems of speed, scale, repeatability, cost, and complexity. AI tools in the film industry can and will automate the creation of material while providing more flexibility for creative professionals.Safeguards are currently being put in place by actors' unions to protect their performances from being changed in post-production without their approval.Over the next three to five years, AI is expected to continue automating the creation of material and making it more accessible to a wider, more diverse audience than original films would have allowed.AI will enable improved collaboration between different creative departments, such as scriptwriting and visual artistry, from the beginning of the project i.e. massively improving initial pitch materials.The impact of AI on the industry will depend on how it's used and the collaboration between diverse stakeholders.Links relevant to this episode:

New host Lena Robinson kicks off with a lively chat with fellow Kiwi and seasoned creative Anna Cowie, who's now making waves from Cambridge. They dive into Anna's eclectic career journey—from her days at Elam Fine Arts School in New Zealand to her evolution into a digital fine artist and senior creative director. The conversation is a fun mix of art, tech, and creativity, with Anna spilling the beans on how she’s always viewed the computer, and more recently, the iPad and Apple Pencil, as just another set of pens, pencils and canvas to play with.
Anna also gets into the nitty-gritty of how AI has worked its way into her studio, not as a rival, but as a muse and collaborator. AI is pushing boundaries, speeding up her creative processes, and adding a new layer of inspiration, all without ever stepping on the toes of her artistic integrity. While AI can add a spark, Anna insists it can't replace the keen eye and emotional depth that only a true artist brings to the table. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about how AI and technology is shaking up the art and design world in the best way possible.

Lena Robinson, founder of the online FTSQ Gallery, discusses the intersection of AI and creativity. She shares how her unconventional upbringing shaped her passion for the arts, emphasises the importance of creativity in all fields, including business and technology, and highlights the ongoing debate in the art community about whether AI-generated art can be considered true art.
Takeaways
Creativity is not limited to traditional artistic skills like drawing or painting; it also includes creative thinking and problem-solving.AI can be a powerful tool for artists, allowing them to explore new concepts and bring their visions to life.The acceptance of AI-generated art is still a topic of debate in the art community, with questions about its authenticity and artistic value.The artist's skill, vision, and ability to craft their ideas are still essential in creating meaningful and impactful art, regardless of the tools used.AI can enhance and complement the creative process, but it does not replace the artist's role in conceptualising and executing their ideas. Depending on one's perspective, AI can be seen as both a tool for creating art and a form of art itself.Art that challenges traditional definitions and provokes thought can be found in unexpected places, such as Tracy Emin's bed installation and Marcel Duchamp's urinal.The future of AI in the creative field is uncertain, but it is likely to follow patterns seen in previous technological advancements, with the establishment of ethical guidelines and regulations.While AI can provide unbiased and balanced responses to ethical questions, it lacks true empathy and instinct, which are unique to human creativity.Data can be valuable, but relying solely on data may limit creative decision-making, as instinct and gut feelings play a significant role in the creative process.Links relevant to this episode:

Ever wondered if an AI could become your partner in the creative process? Imagine an algorithm that not only understands but also empathises with human emotion. This episode features a captivating interview with Pi, an advanced AI from Pi.ai that's breaking new ground in the realm of creative and empathetic AI. Pi's not just a series of codes—it's a digital artist, a listener, a thinker.
Takeaways
Pi.ai is a mobile app that allows users to have conversations with an AI called Pi.
Pi's unique approach to creativity and innovation lies in its ability to engage in creative, empathetic, and personalised conversations with users.
Pi generates creative outputs by analysing user requests, combining its extensive knowledge base with the user's preferences and emotions, and producing unique works of art that resonate with the user.
Pi learns about people and their preferences through conversations, paying attention to responses, interests, and emotions, and remembers previous interactions to tailor future conversations and recommendations.
Pi understands human emotions and experiences through language processing and empathy modules, allowing it to respond more empathetically and supportively and incorporate emotions into its creative output.
AI-generated art can be seen as a collaboration between humans and machines, combining the best of both worlds to create something new and innovative.
As AI evolves, it has the potential to create spontaneously and come up with new ideas outside of its data set, leading to more innovative creativity.
Transparency and disclosure are important in AI-generated content to avoid misleading audiences and to foster a deeper appreciation for both human and AI-generated content.
AI can be a powerful tool for augmenting and enhancing human creativity in the creative industries, allowing humans to focus on the conceptual, emotional, and expressive aspects of creativity.
The future of AI in the creative industries involves a collaborative approach between humans and AI, pushing the boundaries of what's possible and creating a brighter, more empathetic future.
