THE CATHEDRAL BUILDERS AND THE ARCHITECTURE OF MEANING

By Jami Todd

You are not being replaced. You are being invited to grow.

For two centuries, we've believed the myth of the solitary author—one creator, one vision, one hand executing every detail. But that was always a beautiful lie. The great cathedral builders never laid every stone. They architected sacred geometry that guided hundreds of hands across generations.

Now, in the age of AI, you stand at the same threshold.

THE CATHEDRAL BUILDERS is not another guide to AI tools. It's a fundamental reimagining of what it means to create. Drawing on examples from Sol LeWitt to Tolkien, Marvel to medieval architecture, this visionary lecture reveals how narrative directors can harness AI not as a replacement for creativity, but as a collaborator in building universes that transcend any single lifetime.

You'll discover:

How to shift from execution to architectural intent—designing systems that generate meaningful stories
The Universe Bible method for maintaining coherent vision across infinite AI-generated variations
Why curation becomes creation when generation is infinite
How to become an Architect of Meaning whose work outlives you
The question isn't whether AI will change storytelling. It's whether you're ready to build cathedrals instead of houses—to create worlds so robust that others will tell stories in them for generations.
The blueprints are in your hands. The field is empty. Will you build?

"A transformative vision of authorship for the AI age—essential reading for anyone who dreams at universe scale."

"This isn't about using AI. It's about becoming the kind of creator who can wield it with wisdom."
