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

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

@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!
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.

Tell me what you’re working on, or aren’t working on but should be!

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’

@SecurityWriter @nCrazed Weird meme please.

High sensitivity apparatus needs what’s called ‘low-background steel’ as anything after the Second World War is typically contaminated with trace readings of radiation.
To obtain this, you have to retrieve pre-1940s battleships and submarines from the bottom of the sea.
The same has already happened with AI.
There was art and information before AI, everything else is contaminated.
@SecurityWriter i know this wasn’t the point of the post but now I really want to learn more about low background steel
