Artificial Intelligence and Empathy
AI is the most radical tool yet developed on the internet for communication. There’s a common trend with developments of technology that allows people to do complicated and difficult things without developing skills or to build those skills in less time. In my last blog I described how we form attachments to those skills we develop as they relate to our identity. We incorporate our skills and the tools we use into the fabric who we think we are when we interact in the world. They become part ...

We are Not Our Tools
I like the idea that AI is about communication. it started a stream of thoughts around the fact that it’s not democratizing access to certain skills to get rid of people but more so to allow folks with different backgrounds access to each other’s minds. it gives us a window so that we can communicate more effectively with others. because while AI may get rid of basic skill jobs, basic coding, stock photos, stock music. it will not get rid of the desire to make things to build. just because I ...

Heterarchies
Words are interesting things. somehow when you learn a word you find that it encapsulates something that you felt you knew was there the entire time but you you can feel it, you can actually observe it. like exploring a place in the night time then waking up and seeing it for the first time during the day. Yancey Strickler has a knack for finding these kinds of words and introducing them to the world. but not only does he coin terms or bring them up in conversation, he demonstrates through pr...

If everyone is a genius, no one is.
I’m trying to place where I fit into the debate around AI art. and I find myself brimming with thought that spill over. and I’m letting them spill forth into this blog. there’s so many juicy things to sink your teeth into. for one: copyright law, is it just? does it really make sense. obviously it starts to look more and more ridiculous in the face of AI tools, in fact the more we democratize and open the gates to creation copyright becomes less and less sane. it’s the same as regular propert...

The future is everywhere
I’m keeping up with my posts and trying to understand what I’m really trying to get across. it’s hard to stay current and up to date especially when the stresses and vagaries of life creep in to hold you back. but as I’ve been writing it’s really all about the game that you’re playing. As I continue making music, making art and learning more and more I try to reflect and share what I’ve gained. it’s the most fearful self, yet courageous act one can do. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about ...
