The credit will go to you, of course, and that would make it a Yale creation. That's the day I'm really hoping for.

You talk about music creation. composing, storytelling, and now we're entering a world that's increasingly AI-driven. We already have platforms where people can license soundtracks instantly. More people will use tech tools to generate music on their own. You are a human creator. You are classically trained. and not just trained, but over time, you've developed real skill, real craftsmanship.

So I'm curious, how do you see AI stepping into this space? Do you see it as competition or do you see it as a push to step up your own game and differentiate yourself as a music creator?

Yes, it's really about blending artificial and human intelligence. For me, this show is all about human intelligence. It's about life experience, real experience, human experience, the stories, the insight, the foresight, the hindsight, the heart. None of that can be fully replicated by AI. I'm not even worried about tools that can replicate my voice or my guest's voice.

Because at the end of the day, the way I ask questions is unique. The stories you bring are unique. You are unique. I am unique. The connection between you and me is also unique. This conversation is human-made. Sure, I use AI to check grammar and sentence structure in the show notes or tighten up phrasing, but no tool can replace me as the host, and no tool can replace you as the guest.

It's all about balance between the human and the technology. Speaking of balance, let's go back to something we touched on earlier. the balance between head and heart. We are trained with logic, math, science, economics, but we also carry within us love, music, and the heart. Now you've chosen to follow your heart, but there are people out there who might be where you once were.

Maybe they're younger. Maybe they've fulfilled the expectations placed on them. Played the game well, but don't feel fulfilled. They're still struggling between head and heart. So from where you are now, what would you say to someone who's feeling stuck? Someone trying to decide whether to follow their heart or their head? just how to balance the two.

I feel like you are the perfect person to offer some advice here.

Some might say this sounds philosophical, but really, it's science. When you believe something is possible, your actions start to align with that belief. You try, you keep trying, you keep adjusting, you keep moving forward. But if you tell yourself, nope, it's impossible, you never even start. It's not just mindset, it's behavior, thought plus action.

Jodie Foster, the actor, the director, the producer, and a Yale grad, said it best in her masterclass, all you need to make a movie is pen, paper, and confidence, not fancy tools, just the basics and believe in yourself. That really stuck with me. And honestly, that's what I've lived through too.
