Splice CEO Kakul Srivastava warns that AI-written emails erode authentic conversation, similar to AI's impact on music.

Summary

In this questionnaire-style interview, Kakul Srivastava, CEO of the sample platform Splice, argues that AI-generated documents and emails are damaging workplace conversations. She explains that once you cannot tell whether a person is behind the words, the discussion becomes worse and you cannot go back. Srivastava, who previously held executive roles at Flickr, Yahoo, GitHub, and Adobe, emphasizes keeping humans at the center of creative work, both at Splice and in music. She also shares personal reflections on her favorite online spaces, games, disappointing gadgets, proudest and least proud creations, best advice, current obsession with recreating her late mother's recipes via YouTube, and why live jazz is worth splurging on.
