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 We can either be John Henry competing with the machines and quickly become outdated or we can be evolutionaries and use it embracing what is yet to be.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

A Girl Can Dream, Right?

Preparing for the cruise, a whirlwind of excitement and anticipation courses through my veins. Amidst sapphire waves and ocean skies, I'm eager to meet with my teammates, especially one sexy beast I've been mentoring late at night, a little too often.  A single man secure enough in his masculinity to be sponsored by a woman he'd never met, it was more likely I'd win the lottery but it happened!  Men that secure, are  as rare as a million dollars popping out of thin air!  Finding one man who would just listen to my dream let alone believe in it and share it, up until him has been impossible... yeah I'm ready to go past first base and then some! As I finish packing, I can't help but indulge in a few tantalizing semi erotic fantasies. From our first conversation, strategizing his path to success, I was completely intoxicated by him. After months of working together, I'm still feeling an  undeniable connection that has nothing to do with business. His confidence...

Does a Matching 401K compare with the benefits of MLM?

 When you retire what will you remember the most? After my first retirement from MLM, my fondest memories were accidentally giving an entire third world village shoes, knowing we dropped $50,000 like it was spare change to get brain surgery for a DL's mother, it was the reuniting of brothers and it was life flighting special formula in to save a newborn for the child of a grocery store attendant in Costa Rica. Would I trade all that for a 401K?  Not in a hundred years. The power of network marketing isn't in the giant paychecks but in the community. It is a culture of self development, a culture of friendship, a culture of helping others. I have been so blessed to make friends all over the country. Ben Newcomb drove 5 hours one way to help me when Alex's vehicle broke down on our way back from picking up his abducted daughter. When I was pregnant Rhonda Hines sent tea for my nausea. Thousands offered me incredible emotional support throughout my ten year divorce from David ...
