Artificial Artifices

For wannabe creatives like myself, blessed with neither talent nor training [sic], AI has been a boon, a gift from the gods. For decades I have maintained lists of creative sorts of things I wanted to do--stories, novels, screenplays, philosophical treatises, paintings, business plans, symphonies, operas, epic poems...--but which never got beyond those lists. I lack the talent and certainly the drive to be a real creative. But things are different now. With a one sentence prompt I can have a novella, a biographical essay, a business plan, a painting or altered photograph...within seconds. Free (for now). Any of them merely on a whim. My little laptop is getting full of these artifices, and I have not shared many of them beyond family and a few friends. Thus, this blog, where, from time to time, I will post some of these wonders. Consider them copyrighted. I assert my moral or whatever rights. Etc. Enjoy!
