The Big Thing 005: A New Era of Pop Culture

Summary

In this episode, Ryan, Joel, and Rhona discuss the intersection of AI, marketing, and pop culture, focusing on the recent controversy surrounding Taylor Swift's use of AI in her music video and the psychology behind why Lily Allen has blown up (again) with her new album 'West End Girl'

They explore themes of authenticity versus automation, the role of AI in creative industries, and the public's perception of AI in entertainment. The conversation also touches on the impact of negativity in marketing, the creeping presence of AI in everyday life, and the importance of using AI as a tool for efficiency rather than a replacement for human creativity.
