Let 10,000 Heads Bloom feat. Brian Merchant

Brian Merchant (@bcmerchant) returns to discuss Elon Musk’s frantic UK civil war wishposting, and the role of his particular personality in encouraging right wing insurrection around the globe. Then, we move on to discuss Brian’s piece for Wired about what AI is already doing to the games industry—deskilling and displacing artists, and driving down quality. We end by asking: why on earth are we doomed to automate the arts?

Check out Brian’s article for WIRED about AI in the games industry: https://www.wired.com/story/ai-is-already-taking-jobs-in-the-video-game-industry/
