Quit Optimizing for Algorithms. Make Something Weird — Robin Sloan

In this episode we sit down with Robin Sloan to talk about:

What it was like experimenting with GPT back in 2017—and whether he burned out before the hype
Why AI writing lacks the density of choices that makes human work feel alive
The paradox of AI humor and why real art depends on things being a little weird
His shift from online publishing to hand-printed zines—and why “offline math” works better for artists
How he actually uses AI for travel and editing, and where it still falls short
Why discovery and criticism matter more than ever in the age of algorithms
and more

Whoa Vol. 2
