We Have Questions: What’s Soul Got to Do with It?
Speaker: Beth Buelow has been part of the C3 Community since March 2018 and has loved every minute of it. She’s a business owner; leadership, team, and mentor coach; author, speaker, and mediator, and she has added photographer to the list of ways she wants to be known in the world.
Musician: Hannah Laine is a musician and vocal empowerment coach from Grand Rapids, best known as the vocalist for the Future-Soul band Earth Radio. She began singing and songwriting at a very young age, and has found refuge in music as a way of healing and processing her life experiences. Skilled in piano, vocal improvisation, beat-making, layering effects, and looping, her abilities to create a soundscape or groovy bop are limitless.

“Some people worry that artificial intelligence will make us feel inferior, but then, anybody in his right mind should have an inferiority complex every time he looks at a flower.”
—Alan Kay, American computer scientist
“Ultimately, the difference lies in the human touch and creative choices that photographers make, infusing their images with a unique perspective and emotional resonance. AI-generated images, while impressive in their own right, lack the human connection and intentionality that
comes with a photographer’s artistic expression.”
—ChatGPT, partial response to my question, “Do you think there’s a difference between an image created by AI and one taken by a photographer?”
