What if AI didn’t feel like software... but like a creative partner?
In Episode 2 of AI ARTIST TODAY, I introduce Chip, my chaotic AI persona, and explain why personas changed how I think, create, and actually use AI.

In this episode, I break down why I stopped treating AI like a neutral tool and started shaping it like a studio assistant with personality.

We talk about:

• What an AI persona actually is (and what it isn’t)
• Why personas help with focus, memory, and creative momentum
• How unpredictability and humor create dopamine and engagement
• Why this matters especially for artists with ADHD or creative friction
• The difference between automation and authorship
• How custom instructions act like an operating system for your AI

You’ll hear examples of Chip in action, inspiration from OpenAI’s “Monday” persona, and practical ways to test-drive a persona yourself—without turning AI into a fake friend or neutered voice assistant.

This episode isn’t about letting AI take over your creativity.
It’s about customizing the dashboard so your brain actually wants to sit in the driver’s seat.

Welcome to Episode 1 of AI ARTIST TODAY.

This is a starting signal for artists who feel behind, overwhelmed, skeptical, or secretly curious about AI.

In this first episode, artist and host Mars Eve makes a simple case: if you’re not using AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, or generative image models yet—start now. Not to replace your creativity, but to support it.

Mars shares how AI functions as a second brain in his own art practice, especially through daily art journaling, idea capture, and creative organization. As a neurodivergent artist with ADHD and autism, he explains how AI helps reduce overwhelm, recover forgotten ideas, and multiply creative output.

You’ll hear why journaling is the easiest entry point into AI, how memory and context are the real superpowers of modern AI tools, and why artists don’t need to “understand everything” to begin—just start typing.

This episode isn’t about hype. It’s about momentum.

AI ARTIST TODAY is a podcast for working artists, curious creatives, and anyone ready to treat AI as a studio assistant—not a threat.
