️ Iwona Fluda, expert for creativity & ethics

Opening

This week's episode of the in-between tech & trust podcast
examines how AI is reshaping creativity, trust, and
responsibility in everyday work. If you work in creative fields,
technology, or organizational leadership who are dealing with AI
as a practical reality rather than an abstract future, then this
podcast is for you.

️ Episode overview

Eva Simone Lihotzky is joined by creativity and ethics
expert Iwona Fluda, founder of the Ministry for Creativity,
Head of AI and Content Growth at Deamleaps and ambassador
for the Royal Society for Arts, Manufactures and Commerce.
Together, they unpack why trust in technology is eroding, how AI
tools affect human thinking when cognition is outsourced, and why
creativity cannot be reduced to speed or output. The discussion
moves between individual responsibility, organizational
shortcuts, and the ethical gaps that appear when inclusivity and
long term design are treated as secondary concerns.

Key themes discussed

Cognitive engagement and AI

How relying on AI without active thinking weakens human
cognition, drawing on research associated with the MIT
Media Lab.

Creativity under pressure

Creativity as a historically essential survival skill, and
why it remains structurally undervalued despite being central
to innovation.

AI as tool and disruptor

The dual role of AI as a powerful collaborator for some and a
driver of job loss for others, especially in creative and
marketing work.

Trust in technology and platforms

Why skepticism, not trust, defines today’s relationship with
technology and institutions, including content ecosystems
like LinkedIn.

Radical inclusivity by design

The limits of add-on ethics programs and the need to build
inclusivity into systems from the very beginning.

Efficiency versus responsibility

Organizational choices that favor short term gains over long
term impact, even when frameworks like the EU AI
Act already exist.

Societal and existential risk

Concerns about large scale job displacement and long term
societal disruption, including references to thinkers such
as Roman Jampolsky.
