When GenAI rolled along I was massively dissuaded from working on my creative endeavours and sharing them with people.

But what can happen, is that YOU can create zero background art.
It doesn’t need to be good. It doesn’t need to make you money. It doesn’t even need to be shown to people. It needs to be done for the sake of doing.
It needs to be human.
And what a fucking momentous power you hold. Go make art you beautiful bastards.
Tell me what you’re working on, or aren’t working on but should be!

@Proximyst @rapscalorie so many types of creativity you can still apply yourself to. In many ways aphantasia can be a real boon!

@SecurityWriter omg, trying to research *anything* online is almost impossible! hard if you have any hobbies without exhaustive books around...
@acm_redfox it is, but there are tools to help!
I’ve been relying on archive.org and others more and more.

@SecurityWriter I am developing a service for families to share access secrets and notifications in a way that protects their assets. Think bank account logins and policy.
I was noodling it, but this article galvanized me:

@nCrazed sounds great to me! I’d use it. AND I have thousands of the weirdest memes known to man.

@CartyBoston oh that’s interesting! I’m keen to know how you end up tackling abuse/power of attorney/conservatorship type scenarios!
I wish you well!

@SecurityWriter it repeatedly comes up when a friend and I observe a noticeable drop in quality of available GIFs for keywords we frequently use
So far I've only got as far as attempting to look up relevant Android APIs

@SecurityWriter have you ever read the Borges essay about a man who rewrote Don Quixote, identically but hundreds of years later? it's amazing, both as reality and satire...
@acm_redfox I have not. I will try to find it.

@acm_redfox ha! I see what you mean.

Yes, very good, there are established solutions like "trusts" run by a bank but they are inaccessible to many.
I'd love to have, and maybe absolutely require, law and finance partners.

@SecurityWriter also, I feel a significant difference between manually creating art or using genAI is that the latter involves more impression than expression:
since making art takes a while, you have to delay judgement or even suppress it while working to get anywhere - the WIP constrains your imagination as it's evolving
with genAI you get complete impressions all the time - that primes your imagination way harder, like watching a movie before reading the book it's based on
@mmby importantly the complete impressions are those already expressed by others.

I am working on sleeping better, and napping a little bit more. It’s a challenge, but I think I’m up to it. -

@ravenlb probably save some time and terraform it.
I love Ansible, but sometimes I have to give in to the ‘new ways’
