I can be really clever sometimes so I'm dragging this out before I actually get serious.
I'm adding this line to my CV - it's sure to win over future prospective employers.
Human art man, there is no substitute and, as a person who remembers when AI didn't exist, I'd be happy to see it disappear. Mobile phones too, and electricity. Ok, so I have a long list, I'll not bore you with it.
I hope you're well mate, kicking goals, or just doing the best you can.
Employers will want to work for you with lines like that, dude.
There's a lot of shit out there that seems kind of off. Whatever though. That's my philosophy. Just do my own thing and they can do theirs.
A lot changed since I last tried to post, quite a few months ago. It's a bit eerie, really quiet. Took a bit of internal wall smashing to bring this out of me. Feels good.
This is true, but I guess I needed one such as yourself to point it out. Sometimes awesomeness must come from without rather than within.
I don't mind looking at an AI thing or two (images) but I'm not keen on people representing it as creativity. I'd rather look at the worst man-made creativity than the best AI though, you know? I'll not vote it here and I'll never use it myself. That's just me.
It's been really quiet here and what is getting around is recycled shit pitched a different way. The same old stuff. I guess that's because those who are onboarding come from places where not much goes on, or they don't have the means to do much. It's a little uninspiring, but I guess there's people who would say the same about my posts. Each to their own I guess.
It's good to see you putting a word or two together man, and it's great that it feels good for you. Get the momentum going...the feeling good momentum.
It would be difficult for me to give up and turn to automating much of the process. I spend the time because I enjoy doing it. It's the only thing I can zone out on for several hours and completely lose track of time. Again, I truly don't care what others are doing. Any time I see a crowd running towards something, I'm out. That's all the proof I need that it won't be for me.
I can see it be useful, especially to cut costs in entertainment production, like gaming development for instance. I didn't like those gigs anyway...
This space might be the only thing I have left so whatever. Make the best of it I guess.
You're right, there is a use-case for it but I think those producing it with the click of a button and then sitting back thinking, look what I have done are missing the point. My father made his living as an artist and to me, human-made art will always be the only art.
I get it. This is my only social media and if I didn't write here I'd revert to writing purely for myself. I mean, I write here for myself but others see it. I'm working on a book at the moment, something the blockchain will never see, and that's very rewarding. No Ai permitted though. :)
I can agree with that; missing the point. For a personal brand like what I have, I don't see the point at all. And I took a thorough look into monetizing AI and especially when combined with NFT, and because of some shit going on, experts recommend one should talk to a lawyer first, to work out all the kinks. Why would I want that in my life... ?
I'm all about: Fuck the middleman. I'll do it myself.
And I still love writing. When I started up here, I thought writing would be my main focus, until I looked around and noticed art. But most of it was just photos of paintings and doodles. So I went into business mode and put on my entertainment goggles. And the rest is history... lol
Human beings can be so creative, it's what has got us where we are today, although it's questionable as to whether we're in a good place. That aside, our creativity, cognitive thought, has been what stands us apart from the beasts. Now people want to relinquish it? Yeah, pointless and probably quite dangerous. Just my opinion and what do I know? I'm not an AI super computer, just a flawed human.
An interesting (human) history, Me likey.
Was having a bit of a conversation about that under my previous post. I've been thinking about this stuff a lot. I can't see it stripping away much from people. Some people, sure. I'm not too concerned. AI images, whatever, I'm not too interested. That's just a toy. There are several other things in this world that could use the help though. Especially getting off this planet.
