October 2nd: "Do you copy?": Where is the line between imitation and inspiration
It's often been said that nothing is truly original anymore; in the age of the internet, AI, and the mass media, everything has become a byproduct of a million things that came before it. On the other hand, the currency of original ideas is still incredibly valuable, and often the mark of a truly great entrepreneur.
This week, let's chat about originality. Where should we draw the line when taking inspiration from the work of others?
We'll see you on Friday morning.
