re: generative AI

I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used.

And now, you can use it, too.

Generative Al is being marketed as a tool designed to reduce or eliminate the need for developed, cognitive skillsets. It uses the work of others to simulate human output, except that it lacks grasp of nuance, contains grievous errors, and ultimately serves the goal of human beings being neurologically weaker due to the promise of the machine being better equipped than the humans using it would ever exert the effort to be.

The people that use generative Al for art have no interest in being an artist; they simply want product to consume and forget about when the next piece of product goes by their eyes. The people that use generative Al to make music have no interest in being a musician; they simply want a machine to make them something to listen to until they get bored and want the machine to make some other disposable slop for them to pass the time with.

The people that use generative Al to write things for them have no interest in writing. The people that use generative Al to find factoids have no interest in actual facts. The people that use generative Al to socialize have no interest in actual socialization.

In every case, they've handed over the cognitive load of developing a necessary, creative human skillset to a machine that promises to ease the sweat equity cost of struggle. Using generative Al is like asking a machine to lift weights on your behalf and then calling yourself a bodybuilder when it's done with the reps. You build nothing in terms of muscle, you are not stronger, you are not faster, you are not in better shape.

You're just deluding yourself while experiencing a slow decline due to self-inflicted atrophy.

This little pirate had six of her teeth pulled earlier this month and needs to have five more removed next month due to periodontitis, effectively draining our savings almost completely!

If you're in a place where you'd be able and willing to help, I'll leave a bunch of links down below! ❤️❤️❤️

Went out on a walk at 5am and it was SO worth it, spotted a total number of 5 hares out in the field in the same spot!

My camera is definitely not built for wildlife far away but I did manage to get very close and snap some amazing pictures! <3

3 hares in a field, one in front standing, the other two sitting in the grass, a beam of sun going through the grass between the hares

Art Dump Part 3

Whenever I wanna paint something simple to help me loosen up/figure out elements for more intense pieces, I'll pick two or three colors and create one of these busts which I've taken to calling "chandelier portraits".
