AI feels like magic. I have been really enjoying diving into some tools. Some quick observations:

Making something that looks polished is pretty easy.

Polished does not necessarily mean interesting.

Making something novel is pretty easy.

Novel does not necessarily mean meaningful.

Making something interesting and meaningful with AI is still a lot of fucking work.

And this moment is still ripe for revisiting Nietzsche’s essay, “On the Use and Abuse of History”

Basically it’s hard to edit and refine, to become precise—and tweet length notes also don’t get there easily. But I’m cooking something with tools and sweat and anxiety and fear and exuberance and over the next months and years it should show up here. It’s more specific as you and captain fantastic require, but that takes a lot of work lol
