🎙️ Welcome to Episode 1 of the MI PEOPLE Podcast! 🎙️
We’re kicking things off with a bang as Mike sits down with his cousin and creative soulmate, Tony Lamentola from Taylor, Michigan. From playing in bands to creating comic books and goofy videos, Tony and Mike have always shared a passion for creativity—and today, they dive deep into the wild world of artificial intelligence, overthinking, and what it all means for our daily lives.

🤖 Highlights from this episode:

  • How Tony uses AI tools as his “best friend” and even a pseudo-lawyer (no, really!).

  • The philosophical questions about AI’s impact on creativity, relationships, and humanity.

  • The future of augmented reality, virtual worlds, and how they’ll change the way we connect (or isolate).

  • Why local communities and human interaction are more valuable than ever in our tech-driven world.

  • A hilarious tangent about hockey players beating up robots (you have to hear it to believe it).
