    I’ll just repeat what I’ve said before, since this seems like a good spot for this conversation.

    I’m an idiot with no marketable skills. I want to write, I want to draw, I want to do a lot of things, but I’m bad at all of them. gpt like ai sounds like a good way for someone like me to get my vision out of my brain and into the real world.

    My current project is a wiki of lore for a fictional setting, for a series of books that I will never actually write. My ideal workflow involves me explaining a subject as best I can to the ai (an alien technology or a kingdom’s political landscape, or drama between gods, or whatever), telling the ai to ask me questions about the subject at hand to make me write more stuff, repeat a few times, then have the ai summarize the conversation back to me. I can then refer to that summary as I write an article on the subject. Or, me being lazy, I can just copy-pasta the summary and that’s the article.

    As an aside, I really like chatgpt 4o for lore exploration, but I’d prefer to run an ai on my own hardware. Sadly, I do not understand github and my brain glazes over every time I look at that damn site.

    It is way too easy for me to just let the ai do the work for me. I’ve noticed that when I try to write something without ai help, it’s worse now than it was a few years ago. generative ai is a useful tool, but it should be part of a larger workflow, it should not be the entire workflow.

    If I was wealthy, I could just hire or commission some artists and writers to do the things. From my point of view, it’s the same as having the ai do the things, except it’s slower and real humans benefit from it. I’m not wealthy though, hell, I struggle to pay rent.

    The technology is great, the business surrounding it is horrible. I’m not sure what my point is.
