More usable by human beings.

But it should not replace the work that human beings would do with that data.
podcast-host
Case in point here is Podscan, is my business.
podcast-host
Whenever Podscan pulls in a podcast episode, it tries to extract from the full transcript the main themes and the topics, the names of the people that are talking, the main people who are being talked about, and it makes all of the data available.
podcast-host
But we don't do anything with it beyond that.
podcast-host
We just extract it, which is where AI is best, right?
podcast-host
It's finding meaning in data and then presenting it somewhere.
podcast-host
But what to do with that meaning, that is still on my customers.
podcast-host
AI is such a great tool at doing all this tedious, non-creative work so effectively, so quickly, like every week new models are being released that make it cheaper and faster to do this kind of stuff.
podcast-host
Unfortunately, in a way, these models are also better at being generative, being creative.
podcast-host
And we use them for that because that's kind of cool.
podcast-host
But what we should be is we just use it for extraction analysis.
podcast-host
I would love for this to be a bigger thing in our founder community, not just the shiny generative stuff, but the background stuff, the stuff where people want to just find data.
podcast-host
They want to look at it and then think about how to use it.
podcast-host
They don't want their thoughts to be taken out.
podcast-host
You don't want to externalize something that is a creative, meaningful process to you.
podcast-host
You don't want to make a thing part of a process that's completely automated and abstracts away every single ounce of humanity.
podcast-host
And if you offer this in your software as a service business, if this is the outcome of people paying you 20 bucks a month, then you're actively contributing to that internet theory becoming a reality.
podcast-host
You're making things worse by making them easier.
podcast-host
It's really unfortunate, but that's something we need to grapple with.
