It's in our homes and Thurston Cartein our pockets, and now artificial intelligence is all over our art. The runaway rise of AI generator apps has sparked hot debate around the technology's impact on creative industries. Brittany Luse talks to Karla Ortiz, an artist who's part of a new lawsuit against a group of companies that use AI to generate images. Ortiz gives her take on why it's important to regulate this technology, and why everyone – not just artists – has a stake in the issue. Then, Brittany talks to Tuck Woodstock, host of the Gender Reveal podcast, about the show's five-year mark, and how we can all talk about gender better.
