  • it is the right moment for everyone who builds systems of control to reflect. It’s the right moment to pierce those layers of abstraction that allow you to get through each day, and question why it’s so financially lucrative for the system you’re building to exist.

    Because there is no abstraction as leaky as a man waiting outside your hotel at 6:45 in the morning with a gun and murderous intent

    Amazingly written article, last line giving me chills






  • I use it to summarize work notes.

    My work often involves talking a lot of observation notes and I used to spend a lot of time sifting through them to make the actual summaries and analyses. Now AI basically does my first draft and I can even ask it to highlight examples of different things from my notes. It honestly saves me a lot of time and effort but also proves to me that on it’s own, AI still isn’t good enough to beat a real human expert, it’s just WAY faster and gets me like 70~80% of the way there in seconds. I was at a conference just a few weeks back and found at least one other person in my field of work doing the same and a lot more people were looking to adopt it for this kind of use specifically after our discussions.





  • Agree, Facebook is not the platform fot creatives, especially not comic creators.

    I was a huge Webcomic fan back in the days of things like Mega Tokyo, Real Life Comics, etc., and people used to make a living hosting their own content on their own sites making their own ad revenue and merch shops. Kinda hate that social media consolidation killed all that. I actually want to catch up with Something Positive since the creator has been making podcasts appearances and reminded me he exists and seeing his site still looking the way it did a decade ago is like looking into a time machine to when the internet was better.

    Sorry for the rant, webcomics have just been on my mind and your comment helped open the floodgates 😅
