Congratulations for being nominated and recognized! There’s a lot of shade thrown. And certainly these lists aren’t definitive rankings. But they are still an honor and the people on them deserve to be celebrated. Also the category for Rising Talent is called that for a reason. They have great potential and their best work SHOULD be ahead of them.

Idk, the list isn’t completely made up of advertising creatives…maybe do a spin off of Heated Rivalry
The brass want us all to use the AI, but I find myself spending as much time arguing with it/coaxing it/getting it not to be dumb as it would take for me to just do the additional work myself (or, I dunno, collaborate with my team)
