“You’re never gonna have it all figured out…”
When you drive your drunk friend home…
But they pass out in the car (it’s their birthday weekend and they’ve had so much alcohol…), and when you get to their apartment they aren’t waking up so you can get them to their couch…
So instead you take your blanket from the backseat, cover them up, lay the seat back, and just wait. 🤷🏻♀️
I wish I had food. I also wish I could just go home, I want to be comfy in my pajamas and in my bed. This is crap.
But I’m THAT friend. Imma take care of you.

“Look at you, cool guy, you got it…”
If I’m being honest… AI worries me. I get that it can make things easier, that our lives can be better with some of the things Artificial Intelligence can do for us. However…
I don’t like the idea of using AI to create things like art or music. I realize I may be in the minority on this. I know someone personally that has used AI to create books that they sell on Amazon (including coloring books that, to be honest, aren’t the greatest because of errors that a human would have noticed). They use AI to create music (both by writing lyrics and generating the music). They use AI to create avatars and to even have full-on conversations on websites in order to create content.
It just all feels ingenuine.
The person that I mentioned will send me audio clips to listen to for some feedback on a song that their AI program created. They fully intend on releasing some of this music on the streaming platforms and even have an AI-generated “person” as the album artwork and such.
That really, really bothers me.
I love music and art. Many times when I find a song I like, I dig in to see what the other songs by that artist are like. I look up tour dates, I check out their online presence, I really want to do my research to see what kind of person/people have created the art I had been enjoying.
If I were to come across this AI-generated artist, I fully believe that the person I know will have used AI to generate social media posts and maybe even generated images of that avatar performing shows that never actually happened. I wouldn’t put it past them.
While I understand there are many AI things out there like music and art, and that I may have even been someone to enjoy what they’ve created, I would really rather my art be created by someone with a pulse, not microchips and processors.
Just my two cents.
