Welcome to this solo filler episode where we talk about the glorious chaos of AI in the tattoo industry! Honestly, though, while we’re having a laugh about the idea (imagine the awkward small talk), there’s a real conversation brewing here. Are we ready for machines to take over our the shop space? What happens when a robot starts giving us advice on our life choices while tattooing? “You know, you really should rethink that ‘Live, Laugh, Love’ on your forearm…”

But in all seriousness (well, as serious as I can get), we need to chat about what this tech evolution means for artists like us. Are we trading out our needles for circuit boards? How do we embrace innovation without losing the soul of tattooing? Spoiler alert: I have some thoughts, and I'm just having fun with this, but it would be awesome to hear your feedback and what you think, so leave a comment down below and let me know.

-In the next episode, we’ll shine a spotlight on Iktomi Tattoo in Minneapolis!** We’re bringing you the inside scoop on this incredible studio that’s making waves in the tattoo community. Plus, we’ll be introducing a supply company that’s all about eco-friendly, biodegradable products.
