  • I have a tendency to forget about anything that isn’t directly in front of my face. I love talking to and hanging out with my old friends from school, but I don’t often think to send a message just to say hi, and sometimes I realize that I haven’t talked to any of them in over a year or so.

    It never hurts to send a “Hey! How’s it going?” message when you haven’t heard from someone in a while. I know that even though I’m really bad at sending them, I’m always happy to receive them!

















  • I’ve not loved nor hated AI. I’ve been both impressed and irritated by what it can do.

    But, one thing has been pissing me off lately. My wife and I often share funny videos throughout the day, and over the past few weeks, about 1/3 of them have been real video, 1/3 of them have been obviously AI (like talking babies), and the other third are deceptive AI. (Something that looks impressive yet believable, until you see the SORA watermark, or find an inconsistency in the background)

    There was a time where I could watch a video of a dog doing tricks and just think “that’s adorable!” but now I have to check everything I watch for watermarks, missing teeth, and scrambled text in the background. I have to verify it’s authenticity before I can decide how I feel about it.
