Surviving Creative Evolution is a much-needed book about how AI disrupts our jobs and lives and what we can do to stay afloat and even thrive as creatives during the era of artificial intelligence. Because advances in AI and its gains can be used to make the rich richer while forcing the rest of us to work harder for less money, our future becomes more uncertain, and more people fear losing their jobs. Shannon Hayner explores big questions about technology in this book. She offers strategies, coping mechanisms, tools, and tactics to cultivate a helpful mindset, reduce anxiety and stress, and optimize health and well-being to navigate these uncertain times better. Shannon discusses humans vs. machines, the consequences of adopting AI in the workplace and society, what separates us from the machines, the ethical, social, and economic concerns that AI advancements raise, and more.
Surviving Creative Evolution is a great and timely book that empowers creatives with proven techniques to help them adapt, stay relevant, overcome automation anxiety, and thrive in the era of AI. This comprehensive guide helped me understand more about the effects of AI on creativity and work and how I can leverage artificial intelligence for personal and professional growth rather than see it as a threat. Shannon Hayner shows readers the benefits and potential ethical pitfalls of integrating AI in creative fields and offers examples of what we can create when collaborating with AI. It's a must-read for anyone uncertain and anxious about the future, for creatives, artists, visionaries, and dreamers.
