Welcome to Intelligent Think, the podcast in which we explore what makes ideas great, how we can make our thinking better, and why it’s so important to share your ideas with the world. In this episode, Verity chats with Erin Austin, a Harvard-educated attorney who helps experts protect and monetize their intellectual property in the rapidly changing landscape of AI and content creation. Together, they unpack what it means to create – and protect – original work in an era where machines can do both. They cover: * How AI is challenging long-standing copyright laws and blurring the lines of ownership. * Why not all AI-assisted content is legally protectable – and what that means for creators and consultants. * The ethical use of AI tools, including how to protect client confidentiality and uphold originality. * Erin’s advice on choosing the right AI tools, staying compliant with upcoming regulations, and keeping human expertise at the centre of your work. We couldn’t create this podcast on our own (no really, we couldn’t!), so massive thanks to: * Geoff Ong (theme music: Massachusetts Avenue, published by Songbroker) * Our team at Intelligent Ink * And you, for listening!
