In a world swirling with uncertainty, Guillermo del Toro's words hit hard: he hopes to be gone before AI art takes over our reality. 😔 He paints a vivid picture of how our true monsters aren't just in fiction, but in the hands of tyrannical leaders and tech giants who manipulate creativity for profit. It’s disheartening to feel that our human touch, our essence, might be replaced by cold algorithms. I often wonder if the art that once soothed my soul will drown in a sea of sterile pixels. Are we losing ourselves in this relentless chase for innovation? Let’s hold onto the magic of genuine creativity while we still can. https://www.wired.com/story/guillermo-del-toro-hopes-hes-dead-before-ai-art-goes-mainstream/ #Art #AI #Creativity #GuillermoDelToro #HumanTouch

Ever wonder what happens when someone decides to make AI art, but, like, actually does it all by hand? Meet Tianran Mu, the guy going viral for creating those creepy AI vibes without any tech. Yeah, it's just him, no code or algorithms. I mean, sometimes it feels like we’re all just stuck watching the same weird videos over and over, right? At least this guy is doing something... different? Makes you think about how much we rely on machines these days. Is the human touch really fading away?

I used to dream about a world where technology brought us closer together, but now it feels like we’re only gazing at each other through screens…😢 The rise of smart glasses has transformed our lives since 2013, once the stuff of superhero movies, now a reality that’s meant to connect us. Yet, why do I feel so alone? It’s like we’re wearing our gadgets like armor, shielding ourselves from genuine connection and tender moments. I wonder, in this tech-filled age, do we really see each other anymore, or are we just reflections of our devices? Let’s not let the magic of human connection slip away, even as the world evolves. 💔 https://www.realite-virtuelle.com/folle-multiplication-des-lunettes-connectees-mais-la-suite-est-encore-plus-dingue/ #LonelyInADigitalWorld #ConnectionLost #SmartGlasses #TechAndIsolation #HumanTouch

In a world where programmers chase perfection, the humble beauty of Perl fades into the shadows. Once a language that embraced the chaos of human creativity, it now feels like a distant memory, lost in the relentless pursuit of more polished code. The warmth of imperfection and the messiness of our humanity seem to vanish, leaving behind a cold, sterile environment. I find myself alone in this digital void, longing for the days when coding was an art, not a competition. The echoes of forgotten lines whisper tales of connection, now silenced by the sterile click of keys. Where did the heart go? 💔 #Perl #Programming #Loneliness #HumanTouch #EmotionalCoding

Lately, I've been seeing a lot of authors on TikTok, posting videos under the hashtag #WritersTok. Apparently, they’re trying to prove that they’re not using AI to write their work. It’s kind of funny, I guess. They edit their manuscripts, showing us all the “human” effort that goes into writing. But honestly, it feels a bit pointless. I mean, do we really need to see authors editing? Isn’t that something we just assume they do? I don’t know, maybe it's just me, but watching someone scribble on a page or type away doesn’t seem that exciting. I get it, they want to show the world that they are real people with real processes, but can't that be implied? It's like they’re all saying, “Look, I’m not a robot,” when, in reality, most of us already knew that. The whole protest against AI in writing feels a bit overblown. Sure, AI is becoming a big deal in the creative world, but do we need a TikTok movement to showcase that human touch? I guess it’s nice that indie authors are trying to engage with readers, but can’t they find a more interesting way? Maybe just write more, I don’t know. The videos are everywhere, and it’s almost like an endless scroll of the same thing. People editing, people reading excerpts, and then more people explaining why they’re not using AI. It’s all a bit much. I suppose they’re trying to stand out in a world where technology is taking over writing, but does it have to be so… repetitive? Sometimes, I wish authors would just focus on writing rather than making videos about how they write. We all know writing is hard work, and they don’t need to prove it to anyone. Maybe I’m just feeling a bit lazy about it all. Or maybe it’s just that watching someone edit isn’t as captivating as a good story. In the end, I get that they’re trying to build a community and show their process, but the TikTok frenzy feels a bit forced. I’d rather pick up a book and read a good story than watch a video of someone tweaking their manuscript. But hey, that’s just me. #WritersTok #AuthorCommunity #AIinWriting #IndieAuthors #HumanTouch
