Lately I’ve been trying to get back into coding, blockchain and of course AI. And I just can’t get into it?
Missed a lot of the agent paradigm shift because I took the whole year off basically from the birth to maturity of agentic workflows.
But every time I try to get into it and experiment I get pulled into different things, like more creative tasks or socializing with “normal” people 😛 Since the beginning of the year I’ve not been in contact with the tech community a lot, apart from close friends of course. And I do enjoy the time away from the computer actually.
Makes me think if I’m out of touch. Too old for this industry, to keep up with all the innovation. Or am I just burned out and tired? Is it time to accept this and take a break, start to explore other non-tech avenues? For a refresher?
I’ve been super into music lately. Festivals, parties, co-organizing and even playing some serious gigs! At home I spend a lot of time analyzing songs, finding new styles, compiling playlists and dreaming about amazing sets with those special vibes that can tell a story and take you into another world.
It’s the first creative hobby that I’m serious with since programming. And the past year many of my greatest achievements came because of my love for music, my DJ skills improving and my deep connection with the Blockravers, who organize incredible experiences at most major crypto events (Thank you
@manu and all the amazing ravers for the beautiful work)
I still want to do tech, learn AI, hack on some fun experiments and find innovative use cases on the intersection of crypto and AI, but maybe I should do it only as a hobby. And find my profession in something else? I do have some project ideas though. Just hard to get back into it and learn the basics to get the agent to do its job well haha
On the crypto side I want to build games and exciting TV show style experiences with agents, I feel this could become a big thing. More on the music side I’ve been thinking about an AI assisted platform to compile, arrange and mix sets that have specific vibes, atmosphere or can tell a story. Mixed feelings here tho since I can see AI completely destroying the human touch in music, and that’s scary.
Maybe I can combine the two somehow. Algoraves are cool ok??
Love crypto, the core beliefs I identify with, and everything I get to experience thanks to this crazy community and the hundreds of friends I made in it. But I feel it’s time to explore other directions as well, in a more professional manner maybe.
I don’t know, feels like a lot and it’s scary as well. To do something completely different? And having to make an income with it? haha need to think more about it… it does feel exciting tho.
Anyway, I’m rambling and it’s way too late 🙃 Oh and yes, I’ve not been very active on here because of this. Still love this community and reading almost every day. Just don’t feel like writing much. Love yall, see ya later ❤️
