If they read “A Brave New World,” they obviously didn’t understand it. I listened to two episodes, both were absolute wastes of time.
These people are not writers they are grifters.
I have listened since the beginning and trying little bits here and there but, hearing about others overcoming their pain points has been the most helpful for me.
Keep up the great job!
I’ve only recently discovered Brave New Bookshelf and am finding it’s time well spent. Keeping informed is the best asset for anyone interested in AI and writing. The program is across everything AI that an author might need. I’m also a graphic designer so I appreciate that the show includes the visual arts as part of their news.
Thank you for keeping us all informed.
I love this podcast! I get my weekly dose of positivity and growth about AI for my business career. Guests are very interesting, topics are always relevant with the currents updates, and I love the 2 hosts! Funny and on point.
LOVE this podcast, it's the most valuable author-related AI info available. I listen to all the episodes, then start over. If you're a serious author and you're not listening to this podcast, shame on you. (Also, you'll be left in the dust.)
