We’re All Living in Casey Neistat’s World

Suzy Weiss interviews Casey Neistat, the influential YouTuber and filmmaker, on the inaugural episode of Second Thought. They discuss his early recognition of YouTube's transformative power, his enduring love for old technology, and how his career exemplifies Andy Warhol's '15 minutes of fame.' The conversation then turns to harder questions about the creator economy's impact on mental health, the ethics of algorithmic success, and whether artistic expression can survive artificial intelligence—with Neistat offering sober, uncertain reflections.
