Originality

What's so special about originality?

Today, originality is being challenged in so many ways: comedians “stealing” jokes, cultural appropriation, remixes, not to mention the myriad ways that generative artificial intelligence has made plagiarism of all kinds possible.

Is it even possible, or is everything just a remix or a copy? 

We bring new, never before heard, insights to the topic of originality this week!
