Is AI a threat or a Solution?

 Artists are worried about their futures. Is AI taking over? Sites are banning AI, why? Is it another baseless fear of technology that has been going on since the first electric lightbulb? Or is it something more? 

Created By AI

Even experts like Elon Musk are sounding the alarm but should we listen? As an author, blogger, mom, I've enjoyed playing with AI trying to create characters, pictures and covers for my books. As someone considering going to school for animation it makes me nervous. Is animation a feasible degree for provinding for my daughter or will it be obsolete by the time I graduate? 

While it is absolutely possible some bad code or sociopathic programmer could create AI bent on destroying humanity, isn't it also possible AI will revere us as Gods and we will be essential to it? What makes me say this?

As I was working on a competition to make a bridge I discovered AI's limitations. I asked it for an organic living bridge between galaxies. 

This is what it gave me.

My imagination exceeded its abilities. AI can emulate what has been done but it lacks the creativity to expand beyond the known into the unknown. If artists want to survive in this new world they must evolve their imaginations to what there is no example of and take a step forward.

Competition pushes us to be our best. We can either be John Henry competing with the machines and quickly become outdated or we can be evolutionaries and use it embracing what is yet to be. 

AI plus Crisper Cas-9 equals me having wings!

Okay that probably won't happen in my lifetime but maybe when I'm sixty I can look like the image AI made from my photoshopped picture!

I believe if we are responsible with AI and give it the best of us, it will be a great asset to everyone, even those whose jobs are now obsolete thanks to its skills making what once took months to make by hand in mere moments!

The Wonders Of Finding A CF Partner

Finally dating a man who is childfree. Before this I'd only dated one other who was childfree but that relationship didn't last long. I now get why the childfree community is all about only dating other childfree people. I feel truly accepted by my significant other. I get the whole being on the same page thing. It isn't just being child free though, we're both non religious, highly into psychology and self development, and good with money. However the childfree aspect specifically has brought to light many areas of fulfillment my previous relationships were missing. I feel secure in the relationship at a level I never have. Once my husband left for another woman because he knocked her up... I didn't feel like I was enough. In this relationship, I feel powerful. I don't question my choices, i.e. wondering how much I should sacrifice to make my partner happy and what compromises I should make. I feel accepted as a woman. He doesn't question if I have maternal...

No Greater Love

In my marriage, I grew cold and distant, I was dark emptiness taking up a small space. When the marriage inevitably ended, I was left wondering if I was capable of love at all. Wondering if my coldness led to the death of something great for many people. Since then I've tried a few tepid attempts at love, with each trial showing me new errors. People say, "You just haven't met the right person yet," but that isn't true. Relationships fail not because there is some mystical magical right person out there for each of us but rather because we are human and being human means failing sometimes. (Of course, just because there is no "right one" that doesn't mean there aren't wrong ones. There are after all a few truly terrible people mucking about in the world but these are the exceptions, not the rule.) I am currently a failure at relationships, but with each failure, I learn and grow, and eventually, I will be a fantastic success at one relati...
