H.I. v. A.I. - One Emotes, The Other Mimics
17/7/2025 | 10 min
This episode discusses Peter Csathy's latest musing about H.I. v. A.I. in the Arts and overall creative process -- with H.I. referring to Human Intelligence and the critical role of moment-in-time human emotion in the Artist's creative journey and resulting creative works (emotion that AI may be able to mimic, but never authentically capture). H.I. captures the Artist's emotional state of mind at the moment of creation -- whereas AI can only create based on past data (a historical record).Csathy generated this episode using Google NotebookLM (with direction given relating to his article).Reach out to host Peter Csathy at [email protected], and check out Peter's entertainment, media, AI and tech-focused business advisory and legal services firm Creative Media.
