Pioneers of AI

Is AI your creative thought partner? For Taryn Southern, it surely is! Recording this Pioneers of AI episode was a TON of fun. After we wrapped up, the team in the room started clapping … this is the kind of energy Taryn brings. A multi-faceted, multi-hyphenated creative force, she is an OG YouTuber, musician, filmmaker, technologist, and storyteller who has spent her career exploring the intersection of creativity and technology. We talked about I AM AI, her groundbreaking 2018 album—the first #AI-generated album! She had us all laughing with her story about creating a Fyre Festival 2 parody trailer. From writing to cinematography to music, she directed different AI tools for each task. The result? What would’ve taken days took just 40 minutes. We also spoke about the ethical challenges of AI in creative industries—issues around IP, consent, and compensation. We also discussed her work with brain-computer interfaces at Blackrock Neurotech and how an ALS patient can now work a full-time remote job using just their thoughts. I love hearing stories of how technology is impacting real change. From AI music to digital twins to brain interfaces, Taryn embodies this beautiful spirit of curiosity and exploration while staying deeply human through it all. Thank you Taryn for such a rich conversation! How are you experimenting with AI in your creative work?
