i admit to being slightly annoyed that "chatbot psychosis" is becoming accepted terminology for something that isn't really psychosis in the sense that we've used it to describe an organic medical condition prior to this. i feel like we need different terms for cult/groupthink/chatgpt/etc delusions

This is a pretty important message
I say this often but it bears repeating: if you make your money from creating art then you NEED to find an art or craft where you just do it for fun and don't try to be perfect or make any money from it, and when anyone tells you to monetise it you say 'No', because otherwise your soul will die.
Have needle. Have thread. Have scraps of paper. Have free will. Have made a notebook.
