I agree with you, for true art and creativity, absolutely. Maybe I mistook your post.

My read of “want to pretend to be artists” was that the people who aren’t interested in learning those skills didn’t become less likely to do so because of AI, but may became marginally more artistic through its usage. Then I kind of sidebarred about soul and peoples’ abhorrence for AI art

I agree. I think AI fills a creativity gap for average users - worth making quickly once, not worth pursuing an artist to make it.

I don’t think AI will replace appreciation for human art, as human art is as much about soul as it is skill. AI can only ever do half the equation, but it’s the half that the average person doesn’t have and isn’t quite willing to pursue.

I’m sure there’s an argument to be made that AI copying human art is watering down the value of art, but with how people recoil after finding out it’s AI, I think the bigger risk is never having it disclosed in the first place.

2 things: I got into a sampler coffee from my local roaster, and it turned out to be one of the best light roast coffees I’ve ever had. Flavours are orange, huckleberry and vanilla custard! Sipping it right now, and still shocked at how much brighter it is than my usual medium roast.

Out in my corner of the world, late September is not lake season. On Sunday, I was able to go for a paddle in 27C. Freaking stunning weather, my light paddle turned into a 4.5km misadventure! Got to see some pelicans and terns 😊

I voted for it before, I stand behind it - 8!

This is the way. If it’s important, it’ll come back up and you respond with sorry I must have missed it. If it doesn’t, it was someone’s passing thought

If I may take a leap, I’d go so far as to suggest the concept of completed development is proooobably a misnomer at best. Have you seen how adults act? Just children with life experience.

The brain doesn’t stop developing, it perpetually adapts to its current environment. It’s the reason forgetting is as valuable as learning - if it’s no longer helping you, it gets cut to make room for new info. Survival only cares about keeping you alive to the next moment, not so much your maturity level relative to a younger generation

Literally watched an amazon driver do this the other day.

*I feel it’s important to clarify I mean with a package, not a child

This instantly came to mind. One of the best “eff you” lines ever imo

Pretty bleak existence to focus only on the negative

I want you to know, I scrolled past this with the exact lack of attention required. You’re welcome… I think

I mean, seems like you haven’t tried meth!

And this, friends, is why you use a human in the loop if you’re using AI

I like that the existence of a space registry implies the existence of a space DMV

I kind of love the idea of part of her aesthetic being the pen hairtie

I know haha I was being playful

Wouldn’t that just be “sports”??

What’s that? 😉

Hahaha I’ll be honest I’d never heard of it until this year, but that little nation made a big splash! Much like Curacao, what a freaking showing.

If you can get your hands on a full replay vs. Argentina, I highly recommend going back to watch - my experience was that it gave credence to “the beautiful game” slogan :)

It was honestly one of the best games I’ve ever watched. Argentina didn’t win that game, they squeaked through it
