In this episode of Randy Unscripted, Randy Black explores one of the biggest conversations shaping the future of creativity, education, and communication: artificial intelligence. Drawing from insights and inspiration gained during PodIndy 2025 — including ideas presented by Craig Van Slyke — Randy examines how AI tools can enhance human creativity rather than replace it. From brainstorming and content creation to podcasting, teaching, and workflow management, the episode focuses on practical, approachable ways creators and educators can begin using AI without fear or intimidation. The core message is simple: if you can text, you can use AI.
Rather than framing AI as a threat, Randy encourages listeners to view it as a tool that can help amplify ideas, save time, and improve creative workflows while still keeping the human voice at the center of the process. This conversation also explores the importance of intentional prompting, responsible use, and maintaining authenticity in an AI-assisted world. This topic continues in the next episode as Randy dives even deeper into the future of AI, creativity, and practical implementation.
