Why the Analog World Is Coming Back in the Age of AI | The Sonic Road Podcast Ep. 41 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Use AI as a tool, not a crutch. That's the line at the center of this no-guest episode of The Sonic Road Podcast — a conversation about making real art in the AI age and why the analog world is set to come back stronger because of it.
