While responding to a prompt output, I rewrote my reply from "I have the habit of..." to "I have the history of..."
Both are data points. I can't change history but I can change my habits
Small word change but it got me thinking.
Posting on social media was starting to feel like living inside a shopping mall.
Always on display, performing for algorithms instead of self-expression & writing for people.
So, I revived my own website.

When I owned my own website, I needed to make it comfortable my target audience... ME.

A.I. has negatively affected my appreciation of visuals now. Instead of appreciating the artwork or photo, I caught myself spending time trying to find the bugs to identify that it's a generated image.
It has been a WHILE since I taught a live class --- feeling a little rusty but relying on preparation + interacting with the comments has not failed me yet.
A.I. gives most people answers to everything except it's up to the user to make it into reality. Otherwise, it's all just mental masturbation.
#AI is a drug. It feels like power - answers on demand, ideas without effort, a 1,000 IQ mind at your fingertips. Satisfying the mind with illusions of progress. In time, you won’t dream, think, or create - you consume what's been generated, while the machine dreams for you.
In a world where AI could very well take over, now's a really good time to start learning how to develop your own analogue EMP weapons

Starting on House season 1... never watched this series but the snippets on social media convinced me to try.
Might try Friends, one day. So I can finally catch up and be sociable.
Yea, X is dead to me
There's zero interaction, connections have pretty much all died out, and Singaporeans don't use this anymore since Instagram (and that's a long time back)
I guess this is a good place to hide a dead body's location
Just started reading "Thinking in Bets"
A cool take away is that Decisions and Results aren't related but we associate bad decisions with bad results
Which isn't always the case
We could have made a good decision given the situation, but the result wasn't expected
