AI and Content Creation with Megan Skalbeck

The LeadG2 Podcast

Mar 15 2023 • 21 mins

In this episode, we’re exploring the ever-changing role of AI in content creation. Are the current capabilities of AI tools all that they are cracked up to be? Is AI a boon to the content creation industry or a disruptor? Will ChatGPT replace us all?!

Joining Dani to break it all down is Megan Skalbeck, Head of AI Projects at Verblio.


Megan brings so many amazing points to the table, like:

  • How AI tools, while far from perfect, are capable of performing truly incredible tasks
  • Why you should keep a watchful eye for factual inaccuracies when using tools like ChatGPT – Spoiler alert: these programs can speak a little too confidently about wrong information
  • And finally, why content creators shouldn’t be treating AI as a silver bullet for their every task or, conversely, grabbing their pitchforks in defiance
