Episode 137: The Creativity Fallacy


Listen Later

What does it mean to be a creator at a time when creativity is completely commodified? We'll talk about the status of the author, and how audiences have idealized artists while also celebrating the so-called death of the author and rise of the reader. We'll talk about how AI converts our minds into apps, and also why the intentional fallacy blew up the literary world in the 1940s! Later in the episode we're joined by Mary Anne Mohanraj, an author and professor of literature at the University of Illinois at Chicago, who tells us about using AI in the college classroom.
