but inversely I’ve retained where I was going/world building and mythology and characters. I know this place, these people, but it’s been a while and I need to get caught up.

So when someone who is uplifted by a community/career built on creativity telling us to “just accept it” my answer is this: I refuse! What a way to make a room full of people instantly lose respect for you :)

And I’ll say this: I don’t want to be a negative person but I will hold my ground that AI has no place in society. I’m not interested in debating this. I’ve never been so sure of anything in my life.

He had the gall to mention it “won’t take your job” and I’m like I’m not worried about it taking my job I’m worried about it devaluing my hobbies and the crafts I take so much joy in.

this man said that his “AI hot take” is that AI is inevitable, it’s not going away and we have to “accept it.” And I just kinda shut down, because how are going to just say that to a room full of artists?

This picture I took on my phone in real life looks like AI and it’s making me so mad omfg. My bad. I just used the portrait mode and my room is insanely yellow this time of day.

A close up of the keyboard with more realistic lighting, idk why my room gets so yellow/ osume play75 with the dalgona keycaps.

But it just goes to show how much stays with you. Step away for a month, year, or decade it doesn’t matter—your imagination will always welcome you home.
