#yousoundfamiliar I was already really looking forward to this project but WOW! It was so worth it. I went way deeper than I expected and totally didn’t go with “150 words”. It’s just that every response pulled more out of me. I was inside of the conversation. I could smell, feel, see things.

#SMEno1fav I think this was my favorite question because it was a complete shift from the first few questions about “diesel” and “bakery” to Cardiology. Which is weird but also really funny to me because I was trying to learn that topic last month. For context, I did Prompt A.

#realityhunger #insight I really liked today’s reading. The contents kinda made sense. Though we didn’t get to c or d, I felt like some of the things tied together. And it also made me question reality. LOL. It was fun.

#realityhunger “Anything processed by memory is fiction.” Wait why though? Is it because the second I narrate it, the words already reshape it and now it’s translation and not facts. I see how memory isn’t fiction at the start but it becomes fiction the moment I try to tell it because of translation

#realityhunger “Reality takes shape in memory alone.” That kinda scared me. So reality isn’t even solid until I remember it. And even then it’s already shifting because it’s not like you’ll remember everything anyway.

#realityhunger “Reality based art is a metaphor for the fact that this is all there is.” That feels heavy. Like stop waiting for some bigger meaning and deal with what’s right here. Basically art that survives is the art that admits this moment is it.

#realityhunger HELLO? 😭 That was dark. But the question lowkey slapped like if I had one song left would it actually be mine or just something safe and familiar. I guess I’d play The Weeknd LOL.

#realityhunger This one is messing with me. He’s saying life itself isn’t false but the second you start performing and thinking “how am I doing” you split in two?
February 15, 2026 at 8:45 PM
#realityhunger This lowkey feels like a reply to my last post about fiction. I guess it’s not about fooling anyone with a plot but about making the world feel real enough that we’re inside it. The story can be whatever but the texture and atmosphere are what actually move us all.

#realityhunger I actually loved this analogy. Writing fiction does feel like driving in a clown suit and hoping no one notices. Because even if I say a donkey grew five legs and swam across the Sahara Desert we all know it’s fake and we’re just agreeing to pretend together.

#realityhunger I feel like I could replace “movies” with anything and it would still hit. These are my real grades. These are my real posts. It sounds funny but also weirdly deep like reality is just what you decide counts.
February 15, 2026 at 8:40 PM
#realityhunger This one made me pause. He’s saying the fiction that hits hardest is the stuff pulled from real shared life and it costs something to write it. So maybe the line between personal life and fiction was always fake and we just pretended it wasn’t.

#realityhunger “Act naturally” is such a weird command. If it’s natural why do I have to perform or ACT it. The phrase feels ironic like he’s exposing how even authenticity can be staged.
February 15, 2026 at 8:35 PM
#realityhunger This para got me thinking what is a fact even anymore. If memory shifts and edits itself then where does truth sit. A lie might just be a story we agreed not to question at that point.

#realityhunger The secondhand shop line feels like a metaphor to me. I don’t buy random old albums but i feel like we do collect people’s pasts through relationships all the time. In that way we are always inheriting secondhand memories and calling them ours.

#realityhunger This first part felt like an attack lowkey. I love taking photos and yeah I will absolutely ask my friend to send me the sunset pic so I can keep it too and I’ll credit them. I collect photos because I’m scared of forgetting and I want proof that the moment was real.
February 15, 2026 at 8:25 PM
#realityhunger “Attention equals life or is its only evidence.” That line kinda shook me. Like if I’m not paying attention does it even count as living. I guess attention is the real currency and not time.

#realityhunger When he says The Bachelor tells us more about unions than a rom com could (still on paragraph 2), I kinda gasped. Reality TV as cultural truth is wild but maybe he’s right. The mess is more honest than the script since it’s showing the thought process instead of a perfect piece.

#realityhunger The line about “All the writing takes place in the editing room” hits. That makes selection feel louder than creation. Like the art is in what you keep or in this case “edit out” or “edit in” and not what you invent.
February 15, 2026 at 7:52 PM
#realityhunger I’m not even a full page in and he’s already name dropping everything. From Borat to Curb Your Enthusiasm to The Eminem Show like what is happening. It feels like he’s proving genre collapse by just stacking examples until my brain blurs.
February 15, 2026 at 7:50 PM
#realityhunger The table of contents already feel interesting. Overture and mimesis make it sound serious but then “books for people who find television too slow” made me laugh. I’m lowkey excited to see what he means by that and how all this connects to the rest.

#joeandashley #primarytakeaway Main thing I got is SME 1 is about co-creating not just using AI. We play with prompts and answer based on the role it’s doing. Feels more like a game than a tool. Also feels like we might have some control over AI in this case.

#joeandashley #joesopinion I feel Joe on this communication tip. Can’t just hit AI with weak questions. We really have to make it push back. That’s how we get creative and level up.

#joeandashley #helpfulassistant i think Joe’s “you are a helpful assistant” thing got me. GPT ain’t just answering, it’s acting like the other side and we’re shaping it. Makes sense for 209, we’re trying to find antienvs not just answers.

#joeandashley Hearing that even developers don’t fully understand why newer LLMs behave the way they do is honestly unsettling. These systems are human made, but they just seem risky because it can cause serious damage to individuals in different ways if not handled right.
