With the rise of AI, we are seeing more and more podcasting platforms and tools offer AI features. But how can we leverage these tools to be efficient with our podcast creation while also intentionally keeping our authentic voice? This week, episode 16 of Successful Podcasting Unlocked answers the question: How can I ethically use AI as a podcaster?

Have your own podcast questions? Head to SuccessfulPodcastingUnlocked.com to share them with us.

In this episode, I share:

• Platforms like YouTube and Apple Podcasts now require podcasters to disclose the use of AI in their content creation.
• Ethical use of AI is using AI tools to enhance existing content or brainstorm ideas rather than relying on it to create original content.
• You should treat AI like an intern, always overseeing and checking the content it generates before using it.
• Podcasters should be encouraged to make the most of AI tools while still maintaining their own voice and expertise.
