Crowdfunding Nerds Podcast episode 247 is here, and it's a rollercoaster of insights! Are GameFound's latest moves set to shake up the crowdfunding landscape? Can Kickstarter keep pace with its tech updates? Join Andrew and Sean as they dissect GameFound's acquisition of Indiegogo and what it means for creators and backers alike. Could this shift in the industry redefine marketing strategies?

We also dive into the controversial world of AI in creative projects. Is AI-generated content diluting human creativity, or is it a tool we can harness for innovation? Does the rise of "AI slop" signal a return to valuing authentic, human-made art?
