From Atari to AI, our journey through technological evolution

Jeff character

Jeff McKinney

"I used to make mix tapes with a pencil and cassette player. Now I'm prompting AI to create custom playlists that understand my 80s new wave preferences better than my friends ever did."

A graphic designer who cut her teeth on PageMaker 1.0, Jeff has witnessed the evolution from manual paste-up to AI-generated designs. Her perspective bridges the tactile creativity of Gen X's analog upbringing with the limitless possibilities of modern AI tools.
