EDITOR BRIEF
The Verge profiles Splice CEO Kakul Srivastava, whose career spans Flickr, Yahoo, GitHub, Adobe, and the music sample platform used in major pop hits. She discusses running Splice at the intersection of tech and creativity, including expansion through Spitfire Audio and the company’s work with AI tools.
COMMENTARY
Srivastava’s concern about AI-generated emails reflects a broader backlash against automation that makes communication more efficient but less human. For creative platforms like Splice, the challenge is using AI-assisted creation without eroding the trust, taste, and collaboration that drive artistic communities.
