Is AI quietly pushing us to work alone when creativity has always thrived on collaboration? In this Fast Tracked conversation, I'm joined by Joseph "Coop" Cooper, co-founder of Nullshot, to unpack a different vision for how AI should support creators, builders, and teams. And before any Interstellar fans get too excited, this is not the cinematic space explorer navigating wormholes; this is a serial entrepreneur building something very real on Earth, where conversations turn into working applications in real time.
Coop shares how his journey from modding video games as a child to launching multiple ventures across crypto and developer tools shaped his belief that current AI tools lean too heavily towards individual productivity. He explains the thinking behind Nullshot's jam rooms, where multiple people can co-create with AI in a shared space, instead of building in isolation. We explore how this model encourages quieter voices to contribute, removes the pressure of pitching ideas, and replaces it with live prototypes that speak for themselves.
Alongside the enthusiasm for this collaborative future, Coop also addresses the tougher questions around ownership, fair credit, and how contributions should be recognised without being gamed. There is an honest discussion about whether AI-powered creation lowers barriers for everyone or risks shifting too much power towards the platforms that control it. The balance between opportunity and risk feels central to what Nullshot is attempting to achieve.
As teams, founders, and creators look for better ways to bring ideas to life together, this conversation offers a grounded look at what shared AI creation could mean in practice. Are we ready to move from solo prompts to collective building, and what might that shift say about how we define creativity in the next phase of digital work?
What do you think, could collaborative AI change the way your team builds, and how would you feel about sharing ownership in a live creative space?
