On this episode of the Colin and Samir Show, we speak with Reid Hoffman — LinkedIn founder, OpenAI investor, and now one of the first people to launch an AI version of himself. We interview both Reid AI and the real Reid to explore what AI means for the future of storytelling. We dive into the biggest questions facing creators today: Will AI help us scale or replace us?
