In a first-time cross-over with his other podcast, The Confusion Matrix, Alex and TCM co-host Pete Hodge discuss how they use Generative AI in their creative escapades, why this creates some ethical dilemmas and how they reconcile these (or not). It all gets a bit confusing and Alex decides he’s just self-flagellating and ends up more confused than when he started. Life’s never simple, is it?

Alex talks about the intersection between art, science, maths and technology with artist Mark Burden. In this eclectic chat they discuss Alan Turing, AI, beauty in the mundane, art across multiple mediums, the metaphysics of walking, Christmas cards and how he used art to help recover from burnout.

Alex revisits the first 6 months, 25 episodes and 495 minutes of the podcast. In part one he recounts the circumstances that lead to him starting the podcast, and revisits the first 9 episodes.

Alex takes aim at the evils and excesses of art speak via Tolstoy, Artificial Intelligence, and the science of Bullshit.

In this episode of the Art Against Mental Illness podcast, host Alex Loveless introduces a new, less structured episode format called therapeutic outlets. He engages in a more relaxed, wide-ranging discussion, focusing on the impact of AI, especially in the arts and creative industries. Alex shares concerns about AI’s role in content creation and job displacement, reflecting from his experience as a data professional. He emphasizes that true creativity involves choice and context, arguing that AI lacks the genuine creativity found in human-led artistic processes.
