But some artists worry that the tools will flatten creative output. For this episode, Jeff interviews two prominent artists with different takes on the issue: Angela Ferraiolo, an art professor winning awards for her experimental AI art; and Ted Chiang, a prominent science fiction writer who argues that popular AI tools are antithetical to the creative process. We also debut a companion website for Learning Curve to help you think through where you stand on the issue."}
