AI, oh my
For the first time, in creating this site, I am seeing and witnessing just what can be done so quickly with AI. I still am not one to advocate for it occupying any space in attempting to replicate or replace human creativity, we cannot remove our SPIRIT from what we make. However, there is a bit of simple coding that I otherwise would not be able to execute to put a couple little pictures up on this site. It just shocks me, I recall being in kindergarten, WAITING for pbs.kids.org to load. Now, I can ask that same internet to PROVIDE the tools needed to MAKE a website at my fingertips. I feel my generation has grown up in such an innovative age, in almost a golden time, where most of Gen-Z understands the value of limited tech in childhood, yet we still are incredibly actively engaged with it - whether out of necessity or scrolling mindlessly for hours - it is there!!! But making a website like this feels more warm. It is less overwhelming than the other options of screen time. Plus, I have been craving the concept of writing more, for myself and maybe for others too. So, hello!
