Creativity and technology, two spheres that constantly evolve and influence each other, yet remain unique in their own ways. We've had the privilege of inviting Gabriel Isserlis, the founder of Tutti, to share his perspective on how these worlds converge. Gabriel's brainchild, Tutti, is a revolutionary platform that eases the administrative hassles for creative professionals, ensuring they have easy access to physical spaces, be it a school, hotel or even a boat, right at their fingertips.
We dive into the tantalising world of AI, exploring its potential to revolutionise, or perhaps commoditise, creativity. What happens when AI starts generating content? What are the ethical implications of using AI to create a digital clone of yourself? Is there a possibility of personalised AI's for artists and influencers? These questions are just the tip of the iceberg as we navigate through the intricate labyrinth of AI's impact on creativity and authenticity.
As we journey through the startup landscape, we shed light on the importance of networking and building relationships. We take a pause to admire the innovative role of "location Lister" at Tutti, a unique position that supports creative individuals in times of fluctuation. Towards the end, we discuss the Founder's Pledge, a noble commitment made by entrepreneurs to donate a part of their exit earnings to a cause they believe in. We also start getting into the importance of a support network around Founders and how challenging the journey can get, but unfortunately we run short on time and decide to perhaps touch more on that in a future episode!
This episode is a blend of refreshing insights, intriguing discussions and a sneak peek into the thriving world of startups, sure to fuel your curiosity and leave you yearning for more.
