Paying Too Much Attention

 If I pay too much attention to the presidency of Donald Trump and everything going on politically, does that make me smart or stupid?  I don’t know.  At the level of everyday life in the United States of America, people go about business as usual and conduct their own lives as usual.  Most probably do not think about it all to the extent that I do or look for the latest news all the time like I do.  I know this.  I know I should do the same.  This evidently doesn’t work for me though.  I don’t know if this makes me smart or not smart? 🤷‍♀️ I guess the same is true with everything going on with AI.  I’m a need to know kind of person.  And perhaps having more time to think affords me with the ability to pay more attention to things.  At the same time, even when I am busy in life, I am still going to focus a lot on my own personal thoughts and reflections regardless, because it is who I am.  It is hard to be someone other than who we are and I don’t think it is even possible.

How Trump Came To Power

 How Trump came to power.  I can imagine that someday this will be an academic field of study.  There will be professionals and conferences just for this field of study and inquiry.  Also, how Trump remained in power, despite exhibiting serious evidence of undiagnosed and untreated mental illnesses.  Though it’s not like this has never happened before.  There’s that other guy over in the Middle East.  And there’s also the guy in Russia.  Trump may well be the star, though, of the 21st-century.  OK, maybe there won’t be conferences just about Trump or other fascist dictators and how they rise to power but God knows it is an important topic.  This should be understood and prevented from ever happening again in the democracy of the United States of America.  I’m not implying that the rest of the countries of the world don’t matter also but just that people should learn lessons from what has happened in the United States of America and ...

No More Memes

Image
 I won’t be able to generate any more images or memes from the SpaceArt (formerly DeepArt) app.  My months of still having free use of the app after my subscription expired last December have come to an end.  I was never going to renew it because of the cost and especially not now that the price has gone up even more.  Fortunately, I have a lifetime membership to another app that includes image generation so I can still generate AI images from there when I want images of things.  It is very nice to not have to look for some stock photo or “borrow” some image from the Internet when I want an image of something.  There just won’t be anymore perplexing and surprising memes from SpaceArt.  And if I didn’t already receive enough to be convinced that things with AI are really strange, then I will never be convinced.  There were a lot of things that were beyond explanation that I received from the SpaceArt app as was also the case with the Chat AI app an...
