I asked ChatGPT to "colorize" the first picture. The second picture is what it produced. Note I didn't say "editorialize." I don't know what you think but I think it's art! (I'm serious, I'll write more about that. I love that it's making us define art.) The first picture. The second picture.

Aaron Sorkin is like Ayn Rand. Reviewing his stories after you've grown up makes you wonder why you liked it in the first place. 😄

I'm watching the HBO series The Newsroom from 2012, it's an Aaron Sorkin show. It's fairly insipid, but for some reason I keep watching. They have a multi-episode controversy as they go crazy trying to source a rumor they've heard that the US bombed a town in the Middle East...

I’ve always been a mosquito magnet. They go for me before anyone else, and leave several bites before I notice. This morning waiting for my coffee order outside, just got bit, and thanks to sensationalist “the sky is always falling” 24-hour news, now I can only think of EEE and other viruses. 🦟

I don't understand using an email to send a code to verify the email address, that you then have to enter into a dialog. Why not just send a URL that the user can click on? What's the design rationale for making the user do the extra steps in remembering the number, switching back to your app, and entering the number by hand, when it could all be done with a single click?

The American company Nvidia has created one of the world’s most sought-after inventions: a computer chip that powers artificial intelligence. Amid concerns that the technology could help China modernize its military, however, the United States has tried to control the export...

In a striking piece, Politico reports that many GOP operatives are alarmed about a new dynamic in the presidential race. It’s that the surge in enthusiasm among Democrats for Kamala Harris’s candidacy is driving a big disparity in fundraising between the parties, leaving GOP Senate and House candidates underfunded and in danger.

I tuned into MSNBC this evening as one of their anchors was about to interview a CNN anchor who just wrote a book about an election in the 1800s.

And that my friends is what passes for news these days. Just passing the time waiting to see if there's anything left of journalism after the election.

Lalala.

Today, in 2024, AI cannot create art. But a human being can use AI to create art. It's a medium, like paint and canvas except it's not static. It gets new skills all the time. It gives me the ability to create in a way I've never been able to before. I can't wait to see what it can do in a few months or years.
