The weird / The Fear

  • I am feeling a deep sense of uncertainty.
  • AI is coming for us faster than you think.
  • I seem to be living in an occupied city. Weird.
  • There is a sense of fear out here that is stresseful, and terrifying.
  • Boomers, man.

The normal

  • Reading a lot of books. Send me your recs.
  • Still taking a lot of photos. It is still fun.
  • Trying to meet people out and about. HMU. let’s get lunch
  • Running and working out a lot. It is nice. I feel great.
  • Chicago is still the best city in the world.

Working on a lot of tech projects

  • I used to be a computer operator
  • I am just an AI assistant.
  • Trying to blog a lot more.
  • Still, excited about the future. Although a bit worried about the present.

As many people have said “it is going to get worse before it gets better.” Let’s see!
