Creativity in the Age of AI
youtube.comIn just a few short months, generative AI platforms have taken the world by storm, leading a technological and design revolution that promises new ways of creating. These autonomous systems challenge our imaginations and creativity, leaving us to question how we got here, and more importantly, where we might be headed next.
Creativity in the Age of AI is a short film created for SPACE10 by Joss Fong and Áron Filkey, using AI models. The video travels back through history to understand how the adoption and adaptation of tech innovations have improved everyday life. It also explores AI’s growing role in the creative process, and what the history of creative tools can teach us about the future.
Whenever I’m feeling uncreative I watch this John Mayer video and reminds me that you become creative by creating. There’s no thinking yourself into creativity.
Have watched probably 100 times.

As individuals, if we want to be creative, we need to give ourselves space to play and experiment without a set agenda. Amos Tversky famously said that the secret to doing good work is being a little unemployed so you always have hours in the day to waste as you wish. During that wasted time, you’ll likely have your best, most creative ideas.
“Jootsing”: The Key to Creativity
Bret Victor - Inventing on Principle
youtube.comReally resonated with this talk. Using the art of coding as a basis, Bret talks about his life principle around ideas.
Here are some meditations:
Ideas start small and fragile.
Ideas need to be shaped.
Ideas should be tried as they are being thought.
Ideas need an environment where they can freely grow.
Creators should not be blind to what they are doing.
They should receive feedback from the idea itself.
See its reaction to their action.
Feel like Rick Rubin and Steve Jobs would dig Bret's ideas about ideas.
