What’s everyone’s physical labour backup career? I’m thinking family photographer. Maybe interior designer? I’m not good at either of those things… yet. But I reckon I could make it work if all white collar jobs melt down into the GPUs.

Both of these are basically solved with AI, look at @levels.io stuff 😅 So: better get starting with laying bricks 🧱

How will an image generator capture my children’s expressions at this particular moment in time? At this specific age? In their home, surrounded by the objects of their life? Photography is about capturing real, specific moments in time; how people look and feel right now. AI can do none of that.

I’ve seen levels.io’s AI image products and I’m baffled by anyone paying for fake images of themselves, in places they’ve never been, bearing facing expressions they don’t make, augmented to be weirdly sexual when that’s not the vibe. What is the point? To remember moments you never experienced?
