The State of Creativity

Creativity in the Age of AI with Abbi Press.

How can we, and should we protect human creativity as AI reshapes how art is made, valued, and distributed? 

In this episode, host Rachel Paul is joined by Abbi Press, a musician and the Global Lead of Business Affairs (Creative) at Uber, to explore the rapidly shifting creative landscape. Together, they unpack the tension many creatives feel today: fear of AI replacing human labor, the realities of making art under capitalism, and how the value of human-made work may evolve in an AI-accelerated world.


Drawing from her early life immersed in music and her current role bridging creatives, legal systems, and technology, Abbi offers a rare, nuanced perspective on authorship, creative labor, and why human craft may matter more, not less, as technology advances.


Abbi Press is also the author of The Double Helix, a Substack exploring the messy, evolving intersection of art, strategy, and technology.
