12 Game-Changing Ways Artists Can Ethically Use AI to Boost Their Creative Business

In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, visual artists and creatives face mounting pressure to produce compelling content that not only captivates audiences but also aligns with marketing goals. With artificial intelligence (AI) revolutionizing content creation, artists can either embrace it as a powerful tool or risk falling behind. But how can creatives ethically harness AI without compromising their originality?

This week on The Producers Lounge Podcast, we’re diving deep into this very topic with Rachid El Guerrab, an industry innovator who has worked on Emmy-winning shorts, Oscar-nominated projects, and groundbreaking VR experiences. Tune in as we discuss how AI can help, not hinder, artistic storytelling. Mark your calendars—the episode drops this Thursday!

Meanwhile, let’s explore 12 ethical ways artists can leverage AI to elevate their craft and business while staying true to their creative vision.

1. Supercharge Your Social Media Presence

AI tools can generate engaging captions, hashtags, and post ideas, making social media marketing easier. Platforms like Canva and Jasper AI help artists create eye-catching visuals and copy that enhance their online presence.

2. Automate Email Blasts for Audience Engagement

Email marketing remains a powerful tool for client outreach. AI-driven platforms like Mailchimp and Constant Contact can personalize emails, segment audiences, and optimize send times for better engagement.

3. Craft Clear & Compelling Synopses

Writing a strong synopsis for your project, whether it's a film, a gallery exhibit, or a product launch, is crucial. AI-assisted writing tools can help refine and polish your summaries, ensuring they resonate with potential clients or investors.

4. Perfect Your Artist Statement

An artist statement communicates your vision and values. AI-powered grammar and style checkers like Grammarly or Hemingway Editor can fine-tune your messaging while keeping your unique voice intact.

5. Boost Creativity with AI Brainstorming Tools

Struggling with creative block? AI brainstorming platforms like ChatGPT and Notion AI can provide fresh ideas, concept variations, and even suggest new angles for your work.

6. Create Proof of Concept Work Quickly

Before investing significant time into a project, AI can help generate mood boards, concept sketches, or even 3D models to test ideas with potential clients and collaborators.

7. Generate Web Content with Pro Tips & Tricks

Artists can use AI to craft informative blog posts, tutorials, and how-to guides that showcase expertise and attract new clients. AI-driven content tools ensure consistency and SEO optimization.

8. Write Business Emails That Convert

Professional communication is key for securing commissions and collaborations. AI email assistants like Copy.ai can craft clear, persuasive messages tailored to different audiences.

9. Convert Speech to Text for Seamless Documentation

Artists who prefer to talk through ideas rather than type can use AI transcription services like Otter.ai or Descript to transform voice recordings into well-structured prose.

10. Optimize Product Listings for Art Sales

Selling art online? AI-powered description generators can help craft engaging product listings that highlight unique selling points and boost visibility on marketplaces like Etsy and Redbubble.

11. Write Persuasive Website Copy

Your website is your digital storefront. AI can refine your bio, service pages, and project descriptions, ensuring clarity and impact while maintaining your artistic identity.

12. Design Sales & Feature Sheets with AI

Artists looking to pitch their work to clients, galleries, or investors can use AI-powered design tools like Adobe Sensei to create polished promotional materials.

You can’t save an institution by betraying its mission

I'm on a 20+ city book tour for my new novel PICKS AND SHOVELS. Catch me in SAN DIEGO at MYSTERIOUS GALAXY on Mar 24, and in CHICAGO with PETER SAGAL on Apr 2. More tour dates here.

Paula Le Dieu is one of the smartest, most committed archivists I know. Many years ago, she shared a neat analogy with me about the paywalling of public archives, a phenomenon that has become rampant as public institutions have been pushed to seek private funding to close the gaps left by swingeing cuts.

Closing up these archives in order to give these new "investors" a chance to make their money back is pitched as just "good business." But – as Paula pointed out – this isn't how business works at all! If you are an early-stage investor to a startup, providing patient capital in its early stages, then later investors don't get to zero out your shares. If a museum or public broadcaster is a business, then the public is the early investor, and their share is access. Taking away free access is tantamount to wiping out our investment.

But of course, public institutions aren't businesses, and they don't exist to make profits. They exist to serve the public interest. If your public health system, public education system, public archives, public museum or public parks are making a profit, then something is desperately wrong.

Managers of these public institutions forget this lesson at their peril. Every public institution eventually faces an existential funding crisis, and when that crisis strikes, the only thing that will save you is public support. Back in 2014, I got to speak to a group of curators about this when I keynoted the Museums and the Web conference in Florence:

https://mwf2014.museumsandtheweb.com/paper/glam-and-the-free-world/index.html

Since then, I've had many chances to talk with Paula about her views on archiving in these apocalyptic times. She's come up with a crisp formulation of the point I tried to make in that speech – when archives trade access off for preservation, they sign their own death warrants. As I said in my speech, if you don't maximize public access to your archive, then there will come a day when they take away your funding and the public won't care because you locked them out of their own collection. When that happens, all your careful preservation work will be used to prepare the auction catalog for the sale of your collection to the "philanthropic" billionaires who insisted that you lock up the collection in the first place. Your meticulous documentation will become the manifest for a shipping container full of formerly public treasures that will henceforth reside in a lightless, climate-controlled warehouse in the Geneva Freeport.

My conversations with Paula came back to me this weekend when I listened to Corey Rubin talking with Brooke Gladstone on NPR's On the Media, about the universities that are seeking to avert Trump's attacks by sacrificing students and faculty who spoke out against Israel's genocidal attacks on Palestine:

https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm/articles/mahmoud-khalil-and-a-new-red-scare-plus-press-freedom-under-threat

From Columbia's complicity in the kidnapping of green card holder Mahmoud Khalil, a grad student now held in immigration detention in Louisiana; to Yale professor Helyeh Doutaghi, suspended because an AI-driven pro-Israel site hallucinated a connection between her and Hamas:

https://coreyrobin.com/2025/03/15/mccarthyism-at-yale-then-and-now/

These institutions – and others, like the LA Children's Hospital, which halted gender-affirming care for trans kids – aren't merely "complying in advance." They are betraying their mission in order to save their bacon:

https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-02-04/childrens-hospital-to-stop-initiating-hormonal-therapy-for-trans-patients-under-19

This will come back to bite them in the ass. This is like firefighters doing a bit of arson on the side to make ends meet, and thinking that the townsfolk will continue to vote to maintain their budget.

I get it: it's damned easy to convince yourself that you need to destroy the village to save it. By "living to fight another day," you will get more chances to serve the public. Rationalization is a hell of a drug:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/07/28/microincentives-and-enshittification/

Trump and his fascist movement wont't let up on their assault against institutions that support free inquiry, care, justice and openness. Rolling over for them now will not keep you safe tomorrow. But with every betrayal, these institutions alienate more and more of the public, without whose support they are ultimately doomed. Supporters will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no supporters.

Welp. Finally some writing-related good news, at least.

(I know I don't talk about Writing Life here because this blog is my receptacle for all my fannish nonsense but whatever, I am in a rant mood)

So first (like I wrote about yesterday) I got e-mails from my agent about my work being in the pirated database used to train AI

Then I got a rejection on a story that took less than 24 hours for them to turn it around

Then I got another rejection on a story where the encouraging personal letter was so long that I was surprised to see "but we just didn't like the ending so we aren't buying the story (but please submit to us again because we super love this story except for, you know, how it ends)" at the end.

But!! It's not all poop. I just found out I'm going to be paid for something I thought I was writing for free. (I got asked to do the intro on someone's book and I agreed a long time ago. And turns out! It's paid work!)

What you actually get paid for in the World of Writing is really inconsistent and weird, so I guess I can't really be faulted for thinking it was volunteer work? Still, I would have done it for free.

I have never been paid for blurbing/endorsing (and have done it multiple times). You know, the testimonials books have where other people say nice things about the book to print on the back cover. Paying for that would probably be a conflict of interest anyway.

I have never been paid for an interview (have done dozens--magazines, blogs, radio, podcasts, TV/film a few times).

I HAVE been paid for appearances if people want me to come give a talk (and they pay travel arrangements too if it's not virtual).

I HAVE been paid for nearly all short pieces I've written for magazines (and one time when I did something unpaid for a magazine I liked, a much bigger magazine wrote to the publisher and asked to pay them to run my stuff. The publisher notified me and we split the money).

Of course I get paid royalties every six months for book sales.

I do NOT get paid for conferences (and don't get my travel paid for either). Even one time when I was asked to be the keynote speaker. (I ended up not doing it. Too much shit was happening at the time; I attended but did not do keynote. I don't know if they would have offered money for that but probably not.)

And for award submittals and awards ceremonies, *I* have to pay THEM (sometimes extra for after-parties, though me and a guest might get discounts). Offset a bit if I win prize money (this has also happened to me, just twice though).

But I have never been asked to do an intro before and had no idea this is one of the things you could get paid for.

YEAH MAN.

Would be super nice if this good news could continue for some other writing-related decisions I'm waiting for. A lot of places that I have short fiction out to have statements on their sites that look like "if it takes longer than X weeks it's possible your story has been elevated/is in serious consideration" and I have [checks records] holy crap SEVEN pieces out that are in that situation (and eleven pieces out that aren't that old yet).

Bummed that my newest really cool short story has now been rejected twice, though.

Princess of Pivots - poem by me & ai by u/Larushka

Princess of Pivots - poem by me & ai The Princess of Pivots(In the Style of Dr. Seuss)There once was a princess, quite flush with fame,But she wanted more—yes! Fortune and name!She waved to the palace, said, “Toodle-oo!I’m off to be richer than Bezos or two!”She had no degree, no trade or real knack,But she did have a title, and hair down her back.“I don’t need advice!” she said with a pout,“My vision is genius—just watch it play out!”First came a podcast—“The Royal and Real!”But sponsors all vanished. “This isn’t ideal!”Next came a brand of organic shampoo,With scents like “My Castle” and “Crown Number Two.”But sales were dismal, reviews were a bore,“Smells like regret,” said a mom from the store.So back to her mirror, she’d huff and she’d huff—“It’s not me that’s the problem. The market’s too tough!”Then came a blog: “My Duchess-y Days,”But readers soon tired of royalty praise.Then acting! Then baking! Then candles with flair!One smelled like “My Childhood” (just hot scented air).Every quarter she’d pivot, each brand a new bet,Each flop more expensive, each launch more upset.From jewelry to juice cleanses, coaching and teas,She’d pose with a product, then drop it with ease.When wise folk suggested, “Perhaps take a course?”She scoffed at their logic with royal remorse.“I don’t need your help. I’m a visionary queen!”(Though mostly she posted old photos in green.)Still chasing her billions, she scrolls on her phone,Rebranding again—now with AI and tone.Her kingdom is silence, her court made of clicks,Her dragons are lawsuits, her moat’s full of tricks.So heed this tale of the Princess of Spin:Fortune loves effort… not just a big grin.If riches you seek, make sure that you learn—’Cause titles don’t matter when cash doesn’t burn. post link: https://ift.tt/X01ekIH author: Larushka submitted: May 28, 2025 at 04:54AM via SaintMeghanMarkle on Reddit disclaimer: all views + opinions expressed by the author of this post, as well as any comments and reblogs, are solely the author's own; they do not necessarily reflect the views of the administrator of this Tumblr blog.

[lyraeon]

honestly though i rarely process that I'm seeing ads on tumblr. they virtually always just trigger the "not a post I care about, keep scrolling" part of my brain and i wins up not registering what they're even for. yeah, i do get a barrage of weight loss ones occasionally (that get reported as offensive as they should) but that's like... so rare i can't give you an honest approximation of it. two days a month, certainly less than 1% of the ads I get. versus other sites I'm just pissed off by over half the ads I see. political ads that I'm idealogically opposed to, related merch sales, related podcasts. AI art or "friends". obvious snake oil products. my reflex on Twitter isn't to scroll past ads it's to instablock them. the rare times I use Instagram it feels the same way. it's ridiculous.

Taking stock of the writing: 2024

For any new followers: this is my annual post about my writing in the past year.  This is purely for my own mental health–the tag says “seldnei is tired of feeling like a slacker” for a reason.  Please feel free to skip.

2024 was an interesting year that feels like it lasted 2 months, and those 2 months were October and November. We had goal-changing for the kids (Z no longer wants to do theatre for a living, is considering library science, and is planning a gap year while he reassesses; Q has found that school just isn’t their thing right now and is job-hunting); the entire family has decided, between politics and hurricanes, that we’re moving out of Florida; we’re making major procedure changes at work; The Fucking Election … yeah.

But through it all, I wrote.

So, reflection and goals, here we go.

Stories/poems, etc.

“It’s Dangerous to Go Alone,” a short story monologue type deal about the contents of a shop that sells fantasy sidekicks, for FUCKIT. I am very pleased with the miniature boy band.

“The Innumerable Trunks and Thick Boughs O’erhead,” a weird little poem set in the same place as ‘The Forest Speaks of Secrets and the Dead,’ for FUCKIT. Not entirely sure how I feel about this one, but the framing poem about Mr. Brown was just going around and around in my head until I got it out on paper, so.

“The Modern Eurydice: Hecate’s Children,” also for FUCKIT. I love this one. Everything in it should be taken literally. I immortalized all our dogs, up to and including Miss Snoots.

Also wrote some TMA fanfic and had a ball doing so—I got to play a lot with structure and narrative and all that good stuff. Wrote some poetry in my notebook—I’m thinking about maybe doing a chapbook of poetry for the husband at some point.

I blogged about once a month, on average.

I did not get the podcast scripts done, nor did I write any other short fiction (see below for more on that).

Books!

I started self-publishing!

So I’m using Draft2Digital to make the files and handle distribution; so far they’ve been good! I have a hard time understanding the royalty statements? Not sure if that’s me or them, but I’ll be pulling all the reports together for taxes so we’ll see if it makes sense then.

I published a short story collection, The Stars; the Silence, and the first Teachout novel, Cobbler’s Hill.

Cool stuff: my book is in the local library, and not-local libraries have it in their e-collections! It’s in Hoopla! Someone on Goodreads gave the collection 4 stars!

I did not break triple digit sales, but I did sell more than just 3 copies to some friends, so for the first 9 months? I think that’s okay. I learned a lot.

I’m working on the sniper witch book—I think I’m going to break it into 3 novellas instead of one book with 3 wildly different tones. I made a plan to have this all done by June so that I could publish them over 6 months with an omnibus at the end of the year, but the more I consider that, the more I go Price, why are you trying to kill yourself? So that will likely be re-vamped. I would like to have the bulk of the writing and revising done by June, and have the first one, at least, out this year, but we’ll see.

In 2025, I want to do more promo for CH, possibly hire an editor for sniper witch, and enjoy this thing I’ve started doing rather than pushing myself to produce like the oligarchs want. And keep writing for FUCKIT so my short writing skills don't disappear.

Thoughts on 2024

It took me a while to really settle into the idea that the short things I’m writing are really going to be only for FUCKIT because novels take a lot of time and effort. It felt strange to realize that, even though novels have always been my goal.

I definitely had my moments this year of “Oh god, I’m a failure!” But just about every time I would get like that, there would be a story about trad publishing: AI, lack of promotion, lack of money, general crappy behavior. I am too old and too tired for that. For the first time ever I’m writing while knowing those words are going to be published, and it’s lovely. I am not too scattered to make it happen, even if my plans have changed three times since I first made them and will probably change three more as I go.

I am still not sure what it will do to my taxes, though. (Probably nothing, but a girl can hope.)

Goals for 2025

Promo for previous books

Finish sniper witch

Start outlining Teachout 2

Editor for SW?

Revise/publish vol 1 of SW?

(Some of this depends on how the whole "moving across the country" thing goes, as well.)

10 Publishing Trends Authors Can't Afford to Ignore in 2025

Staying ahead of trends is essential to making sure your work reaches the correct audience as the publishing industry changes. Here's a brief straightforward look at the market trends for 2025 and how authors might prosper in this ever-changing environment.

1. The Development of Content Creation with AI

Content creation has been transformed by artificial intelligence techniques. AI is becoming into a useful tool for authors, helping with everything from book idea generation to editing and marketing text. Although some people worry that it might supplant creativity, it's preferable to see it as a tool to increase productivity. Early adoption of this technology allows authors to save time and concentrate on telling stories.

2. The Use of Hybrid Publishing Models

Self-publishing and traditional publishing are becoming increasingly muddled. With hybrid models, authors can benefit from professional services like editing, distribution, and marketing while still maintaining creative control. In 2025, this could be your path if you're searching for adaptable solutions without sacrificing quality.

3. Subscription Websites Broaden Their Audience

The reading market is being dominated by subscription services like Scribd and Kindle Unlimited. This requires authors to adjust to a business paradigm in which page reads, rather than direct sales, determine revenue. You can thrive in this area by writing books that emphasize reader retention. Remember to make your book descriptions and keywords as discoverable as possible.

4. Audio Content Is No Longer Optional

While audiobooks are still on the rise, audio storytelling will become the main focus in 2025. Serialized audio literature, dramatized audiobooks, and podcasts are all growing in popularity. Now is the perfect moment to think about turning your work into an audiobook if you haven't already.

5. The Shift Toward Niche Markets!

Broad appeal is giving way to niche specificity. Whether it's historical romances with a twist, space operas, or cozy mysteries, readers today want stories that speak to their own interests. Instead of attempting to please everyone, find your specialty and concentrate your marketing efforts on developing a devoted fanbase.

For example Fantasy-Romance novels like A Court of Thorns and Roses bring together magic and romance, captivating readers from both genres and contributing to a 15% increase in cross-genre fantasy popularity.

6. Readers Call for Sustainability

Publishing methods are being impacted by environmental consciousness. Digital formats, books with minimum packaging, and books produced on recycled paper are becoming more and more popular among readers. It might be simpler for authors to engage with today's conscientious readership if their publishing methods are in line with sustainable principles.

7. Short-Form Content Takes Over in Marketing

The marketing industry is being dominated by TikTok and Instagram Reels. By connecting with readers through brief films, authors are use these platforms to creatively promote their novels. If social media seems too much to handle, concentrate on just one site and try creating short pieces that highlight your writing style or main ideas. the episodic content is another form of short form content that is in rise. Have a look on attached image to see the details.

8. Improved Interaction With Readers Through Technology

Emerging trends include tailored reader experiences, augmented reality (AR) components, and interactive ebooks. Consider a fantasy book where readers can use an app to access character backstories or maps. These characteristics can enhance reader engagement and give stories a fresh perspective.

9. Stories Are Globalized!

With translations and cross-cultural themes growing more popular, publishing is expanding globally. This trend gives writers the opportunity to connect with readers around the world. Think of collaborating with a publisher who can disseminate your work outside of your native market or translating your book into other languages.

10. A New Attention to Author Branding!

In 2025, developing a brand is more important for authors than simply penning outstanding works. Branding plays a crucial role in an author's success, from interacting with readers online to selling goods or related content. Make the effort to build a polished author website, manage your social media accounts, and establish genuine connections with your readers.

Maintaining Our Lead in 2025

These trends highlight the value of flexibility even as they offer intriguing new opportunities. Always keep your audience at the center of your work, embrace new technologies, and never stop learning. See the complete blog article here for a deeper look at these patterns and practical advice.

Plan your 2025 strategy now; you have all you need to be successful in this dynamic environment.

Unlocking the Power of Digital Marketing in 2024: Key Strategies for Success In today's fast-evolving digital landscape, businesses need a strong online presence to stay competitive. Digital marketing has emerged as the go-to strategy for brands looking to connect with their target audience, boost sales, and build lasting relationships. At Digital Marketing Lab, we explore the latest trends, strategies, and tools that can transform your business into a digital powerhouse.

Why Digital Marketing Matters More Than Ever With over 5 billion people using the internet worldwide, having a digital strategy is no longer optional. Consumers increasingly rely on online platforms to discover, evaluate, and purchase products or services. This growing reliance on digital channels offers businesses endless opportunities to engage and convert potential customers.

In 2024, digital marketing continues to evolve, with a focus on personalization, automation, and omnichannel experiences. Whether you're a small business or a large enterprise, an effective digital marketing strategy can help you reach a wider audience, improve customer engagement, and drive growth.

Key Digital Marketing Strategies for 2024 To stay ahead of the curve, here are the top digital marketing strategies to implement in 2024:

Content Marketing Content remains king, but the way businesses approach it is changing. High-quality, value-driven content that speaks directly to your audience’s needs will drive better engagement. This includes blog posts, videos, infographics, podcasts, and more. Interactive content like polls, quizzes, and surveys is also gaining traction as it encourages user participation.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) SEO continues to be a critical pillar of digital marketing. Google and other search engines are constantly updating their algorithms to prioritize websites with the best user experience. In 2024, focus on core web vitals, mobile-first indexing, and voice search optimization to ensure your site ranks well. Local SEO is also becoming more important as consumers search for businesses “near me.”

Social Media Marketing Social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and TikTok remain powerful tools for brand promotion. Leveraging influencer marketing, user-generated content, and short-form videos can enhance your brand’s visibility. In 2024, we expect more brands to use AI-powered social listening tools to better understand their audience and respond to trends in real time.

Email Marketing and Personalization Email marketing is far from obsolete—in fact, it’s more effective than ever when combined with personalization. Consumers expect brands to deliver relevant, personalized messages that cater to their individual preferences. Using AI tools to segment audiences and create automated email flows based on user behavior can help boost engagement and conversions.

Pay-Per-Click Advertising (PPC) PPC remains a go-to strategy for instant visibility. Platforms like Google Ads, Facebook Ads, and Instagram Ads offer highly targeted campaigns that reach specific audiences. In 2024, AI-driven campaign management tools will take PPC to the next level, optimizing budgets, targeting, and ad placements for maximum ROI.

Video Marketing Video is rapidly becoming the preferred medium for online users, making it an essential part of any digital marketing strategy. Whether it's short, engaging TikToks, in-depth YouTube tutorials, or live streams on Instagram, businesses need to incorporate video content to connect with their audiences. In 2024, shoppable videos and interactive livestreams will dominate the video marketing scene.

AI and Automation Artificial intelligence and automation tools are transforming the digital marketing landscape. From chatbots that provide instant customer service to AI-driven content creation, businesses are leveraging technology to improve efficiency and customer experience. Tools like predictive analytics and machine learning also enable marketers to make data-driven decisions, enhancing campaign success rates.

Staying Ahead in the Digital Marketing Game The digital marketing world is constantly evolving, but the fundamentals remain the same: know your audience, provide value, and adapt to new trends and technologies. Whether you're looking to revamp your existing strategy or build a new one from the ground up, keeping an eye on these key trends will ensure your brand stays competitive in 2024.

At Digital Marketing Lab, we're committed to helping businesses navigate the complexities of digital marketing. We provide actionable insights, tips, and resources to help you grow your online presence and achieve your business goals.
