Listen Later

Picture this: A world where AI can create immersive stories faster than any human can. That's the fascinating reality Jonathan Edwards, the award-winning cinematographer and founder of Diamond City Studios, invites us to contemplate in our captivating conversation. We journey together through his trailblazing exploits in the realm of video content creation where AI plays a growing role in crafting diverse narratives, albeit with minor hiccups. 

We're not just exploring the future, but also the past with Jonathan. His tales of overcoming ADD and life in the extreme confines of Freedom Village, USA, offer a poignant perspective on resilience. The empathy cultivated from these formative experiences shapes Jonathan's approach to his profession and his views on AI's potential impact on capitalism. He delves into the potential displacement of jobs by AI, signaling a significant shift that capitalism must adapt to. 

Finally, we turn our attention to the startling implications of AI and social media on our attention spans. Jonathan's personal experiences with ADHD and his early fascination with technology provide a unique lens through which to view this topic. Together, we navigate the digital landscape, discussing how AI can both exploit and enhance our ability to focus. In a world where attention equals currency, this conversation is a must-listen.
