S6 Ep9 Songwriting: Autumn Rowe and Happiness

The Entertainment industry can be both a magical and tricky place. A rollercoaster might be an understatement. Rules of engagement don’t really exist in music and even if they did… the business feels like it’s changing more every six months than it use to in five years. I’m always in awe of people who have patience. Songwriters go to work every day not knowing if their music will be recorded, or by who, when it will come out, or if they get paid. I can’t imagine having a “job” like that. Today we talk to Autumn Rowe about her journey as a songwriter, work with SONA, and the journey of “Happiness”. 

Don’t Freak Out!!! It’s Mercury in Retrograde.

In Pt 1 I had the opportunity to interview Former Google Engineer Blake Lemoine who claimed that their AI, LaMDA, had become sentient. He was placed on administrative leave then let go.

When we did the interview we had the WORST Zoom connection and only were able to chat for about 15 minutes before aborting mission. I still had so many questions I emailed him… and he answered them all.

In this episode I gathered together some of my most interesting and curious friends for a little AI Theater. To start they’re going to read the transcripts from the email answers that Blake Lemoine sent on AI & Consciousness. 

Then we’ll wrap with a fireside chat discussing what it all means for the future!!

The future is being created every second and it's up to us to decide if we're going to be a part of the conversation or just trust big tech with it all. In Part 1 former Google Engineer Blake Lemoine lays the foundation for a conversation about AI and Consciousness.
