Hey Jezz! I'm with you on the AI stuff. I think you saw my note yesterday on my other account, right? Those are my thoughts on AI right now. AI might replace some writing jobs here and there, but not now. It's not that good at creating anything truly valuable right now from a writing standpoint. I hope it stays that way for as long as possible.

I saw the note. And I totally agree!

Hi Jezz,

first sorry for your dog and glad to know he's better now. Dogs are able to eat anything...

AI :

1 today as I wanted to renew my Substack email banner, I just discovered that Canva now provides an AI to create different things. Well i'm not good at typing with words what I really want (imagination does not write itself, I'd prefer to copy paste my thoughts but this is not possible. And that's for good).

2 just as you said, I don't think AI is neither good or bad. As an AuDHD person, I'd like to benefit from all this apps that would preserve my energy .For example I wasn't aware that you could make shorts on youtube more easily with this app you mention. Anyway I also stopped doing shorts since it did not bring me subscribers... I feel like it just attracts "random" people who won't be interested in staying longer on my place.

3 I too think creation is a question of energy. And I have the intuition that maybe people in general will develop this sensoriality that some of us already have, I mean really sensing others energy (which can drain us but also allows us to feel if someone is faking or is genuine). It's also a way to realize that "true" art can only come from a place where someone put much time, a life's experience, and deep vulnerability, to craft a picture, a sound, a dance...

4 I can't let myself be too much afraid of all we could expect from AI. I'm aware of the many dangers it represents but if I should die tomorrow, I wouldn't have spent much time worrying about this.

5 Coherence is the most important thing for me, so I might become old fashioned but as long as I stay aligned with my values (taking care of myself and the others while respecting my energy), I feel like things will just go on.

6 a bit long, sorry I tried to list but... :)

Well I asked about your opinion and I got it ! 😁

About that shorts making app I used is: https://www.opus.pro/tools/youtube-shorts-maker if you interested.

I know that shorts can bring in the wrong type of people. A reason I stopped doing them too. But started to make completely different shorts to see how that works. (Got inspired by an artist on Youtube for it)

When it comes to AI, let's just hope that it becomes better for everyone! And not just the "lest scrap the internet so we can create". If AI can give us faster workflow to save energy, that would just be plus points!
