Can AI Make Me an Artist?

About this episode

The episode explores the intersection of AI and art, questioning whether AI enhances creativity or replaces it.

I’ve got a confession. I always wanted to be good at painting. Back in my 20s, I used to watch Bob Ross on PBS. I bought the brushes. The easel. The paints. I hit pause on the VCR and tried to copy every happy little tree. And… let’s just say my mountains weren’t exactly majestic. Fast forward a few decades. Now we have AI. So I decided to run an experiment: What happens if I feed my amateur paintings into AI and ask it to turn them into masterpieces? Would it make them look like Bob Ross painted them? Could it turn one into something Monet might have created? Would it elevate my abstract art into something “museum worthy”? And more importantly… If AI improves my art… is it still mine? This episode isn’t just about paint on canvas. It’s about creativity. Ego. Talent. And the uncomfortable question: Does AI make us better — or does it quietly replace us? You’ll see the before. You’ll see the after. And you can decide for yourself. 👇 Tell me in the comments: Which version would YOU hang in your home? — If you’re enjoying the show, make sure to subscribe and share it with someone…
