Is ChatGPT a tool or a crutch? A shortcut or a spark? In this episode, I sit down to unpack the cultural unease around AI—why we’re embarrassed to use it, what it says about creativity today, and whether relying on ChatGPT is cheating or just the new way of thinking.Why does using a robot to write feel shameful, even when it helps us say what we mean more clearly? Is the fear of AI really about the tech—or is it about what it reveals about us?If you’ve ever used ChatGPT and felt guilty, curious, or quietly impressed, this one’s for you.? Instagram: @lexie?
