We have a meeting every Friday at my gym. My commitments have decreased a lot over the years, but this is a good pulse-check where the managers all meet up to discuss whatever's going on and needs addressing in the week ahead.
It’s really weird since I retired I don’t have the same time markers from my prior (almost) 60 years. Some days I *really* have to think what day it is. Thanksgiving is coming in handy today.
Our home routine is also quite repetitive with the kids' school, etc. so it's hard to tell the days apart. I thought it was Wednesday today, but nope. Turns out it's "I can't believe it's not weekend yet" day.
For the past couple years I rode MSFTs + OpenAI besties AI wave using Bing, Copilot, Designer, etc. As a former minion it was easy and I was curious and I felt some obligation to support them. Also all my prior peeps would rant about COPILOT everything’s. But. A few months ago they did a redo of the consumer copilot stuff and now it’s dumbed down and sh*tty. Same with their DALL-E images. I think some new guy came over to run stuff from openAI, I dunno.
Anyway. Last week I switched over to ChatGPT (which I’d used on and off but wasn’t my go to). I’m smitten. Especially the advanced voice 4o model, it’s so responsive on mobile it’s amazing. It has planned out thanksgiving answering every cooking logistics question JFran comes up with.
I ran these prompts through it and the images were great, but for two (emoji and glyph) it refused. Like when I walk my dog and she’s just like nope not going there:
It seems I can’t generate an emoji-like image for you right now. However, I can guide you through drawing one if you’d like! Would you like some step-by-step instructions for sketching a robot emoji?
Yeah, the Advanced Voice Mode is the one thing that makes me seriously consider to start paying for ChatGPT again. Cool to hear it's working out so well for you. Also, I love when AI models refuse to do something and then condescendingly offer to walk you through the steps. It's like your friends canceling on your movie plans and then giving you suggestions for other people you can take to the cinema instead, Greg!
I can see that you, too, tell time by the things you write... and not much else. Yikes.
Monthly Midjourney prompts are my only reference anchor in the inexorable passage of time.

That's how I know it's "the weekend."
Solid!

On the weekends I put chocolate in my coffee.
I have SO much to learn with Midjourney and most of the leading image creation tools. And I know this is the place to be for that learning :)
You got it, man! And yeah, I've covered Midjourney more than any other tool over the years. Here's proof: https://www.whytryai.com/t/midjourney
Damn, that’s some solid proof. Also, now my wrist hurts from all the scrolling
