Well, why not believe the impossible, reach for the improbable? We do it all the time when we listen to the news readers and accept what they say as true.

Better to put that energy into determining what it is we want to achieve, and go about achieving it.

I wonder if generative AI will cause a real drop in motivation for organic human creativity.. "I'll just have AI make it for me."

@etherdiver Can you elaborate please? I can definitely see this in the creative professional field, for example.

@lns most creative people create things not as a product but because they have a drive to create: a lot of times the final product is almost incidental.

Doing creative stuff for your job is rarely an actual expression of your creativity, even if it requires some element of creativity.

Will creative people cheat and use AI for their jobs? Maybe, if it ever gets to the point where it doesn't suck. Work is work, after all.

Will they stop being creative for creativity's sake? Absolutely not.

Good morning peeps:)

Well, it seems today is PB Day, not that I set out to do PB, or PR as Strava calls it. (same thing) I knew I'd gone off a bit quick for 5k, but I was cool with that, because I thought, I'll just tap the brakes a bit as I run to 10k, obviously not tapped hard enough because I set a PB for 10k, then it started raining, so my new shoes got a proper test, and I felt steady, stable with no slipping as the surface got greasy, good shoes:)

Screenshot of personal records set for today PR for 10K 1:19:44 7.58 /km PR for 5K 37.06 7.25 /km PR for 2 mile 23.30 7.18 /km

😅49 year young and Rollin' Out at the Malden Fitness Court!

🚀This "Roll Out" might look easy, but don't be fooled! It's an eccentric exercise that targets your abs, lats, and requires breath control along with core strength to maintain a neutral spine.

✅There are exercise variations to accommodate ALL fitness levels!

📣Let's move! Your body will thank you for the amazing benefits of physical activity. 🧑🏽‍🦽👟🏊🏽‍♂️🚴🐾

It was easy, too easy. to carry about bitterness and anger, resentment and fear within her -- there was so much to be angry and bitter about.

But she felt in her heart, sensed it in her steps that these emotions caused her to be clumsy, awkward, unable to stand and move with strength.

The grace and freedom she sought did not live in hatred.

I must say I don't like laying paving slabs, and I haven't even started doing it yet 🤣
I'll just linger another five minutes with this bowl of coffee, I think ..

@fkamiah17 @TheSwiv you could have another 5 or 6 kg of water along for the ride?

@BashStKid @TheSwiv No, I decanted it into an old kitchen waste bin (with a handle) to avoid just such a situation.

Contrary to popular belief, the financial system isn't broken; it functions precisely as intended. Inflation, often seen as a drawback, actually serves as a deliberate mechanism to discourage saving and incentivize investing.

It did not stumble and rush through its space, this quiet stream. Rather, it literally flowed with the landscape, and when it encountered barriers, it either went around them or kept nudging, pushing, and bumping against them until it found a way through.

Unrelenting determination makes an impact.
