Episode Details

AI is reshaping tech—from art to coding—and Doug Hamilton of CharlestonHacks sees it as both a game-changer and a tool that demands intention. While AI tools like ChatGPT are now staples in hackathons and daily developer workflows, their true power lies not in automation alone, but in how they’re guided. Hamilton warns against “lazy AI,” which spawns bloated, unusable projects, versus “informed AI,” where developers first define purpose and structure, then let AI handle the grunt work. The future belongs to those who master this balance: using AI to amplify human creativity, not replace it.
