Full Episode
What is the value you're providing? Can AI just duplicate? You certainly still own your own likeness. What I think really starts getting interesting, you're going to have digital twins. We're doing deals with the talent. We're not doing it without talent. What happens when AI starts creating things on their own? Drake, for example, and that digital twin then goes and creates a song.
Does Drake own it? Digital twin own it? It really makes you ponder, well, who deserves rights? What does it take to be human? We're at that point now. Welcome back to the show, guys. I'm your host as always, Sean Kelly. Got with me an entertainment and tech lawyer for you guys today, Eric Galen. How's it going? Great.
Happy to be here. Thanks for having me. Just literally arrived an hour ago and came down here and it's a beautiful studio. Yeah, we made it happen, man. Yeah. So you're up to a lot of stuff. I don't even know where to start. I have been. I know you're in the crypto space, Web3 space.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I got really into the kind of Web3 and crypto space. So I started out as a corporate lawyer, then got into entertainment law in LA and started doing a lot of work in social media, started managing some early social media influencers like Jack and Jack and Madison Beer and some others that kind of came up in the 2014, 2015 kind of range when it was the Wild West for instance.
and saw that really progress and evolve. And I think kind of that phase one, the technologies that came out, right? So YouTube, Instagram, those kinds of things really helped start to democratize the talent economy, right? Which had traditionally always been very closed. It was like a castle with a moat around it, right?
You had to live in Hollywood or you had to be in New York and you had to kind of know the right people and things like that.
So, you know, technologies around social media that came out around Web 2 really helped open up, democratize, open up, you know, everything from YouTube revenue to brand deals with Instagram to what ended up being things like OnlyFans, which is basically monetizing an audience through direct commerce. And I think we're about to see that same shift again as we start moving to Web3.
When you start looking at the evolution of these platforms and the introduction of new platforms. So, you know, one of the companies that I'm spending most of my time with, It's a Web3 company, and we're developing digital twins, and they're powered by AI, so they can interact. They can live autonomously in games and in the metaverse.
And then when you look at payment systems and blockchain and things like that, there's just a huge amount of promise around where the new talent economy is going.
