This morning, I happened to come across an article in my Craft documents that I had written about generative artificial intelligence but never published. As I reread it, I wondered if it was complete or if it was unfinished work. I went to check my website, and no, I had never published it. I made a note to rework and improve it, because I think it’s still relevant today.

I can say the same thing about Scribble.pages. I sometimes forget about its existence. 

Funny enough, this isn’t the first time I’ve forgotten things like that. I feel like a squirrel that forgets half the time where it buried its nuts.

I know this might be an unpopular opinion, but I would like Apple to reduce a tad the use of Liquid Glass on iOS and iPadOS while increasing it a bit more on Mac.

[insert any product or service name here] released a new version adding [insert any AI-based feature here]. Are you tired of these like I am?

For the past few weeks, I have a new morning routine to take the pulse of what is happening in the field of the Internet and technology. I systematically check the following sites, in this order:

1. Micro.blog timeline where Micro.blog, Bluesky and Mastodon users posts are converged in a single timeline.
2. Digg (still in beta but still worth it because the community there is rather motivated to share great links)
3. Hacker News
4. Techmeme
5. The Register
6. Inoreader for the rest through a plethora of RSS feeds from news sites. 

The next step will be to ask ChatGPT agent to create a summary report of those news sources in a morning. I'm not sure if this is something that is possible, yet.

I mostly forgot about my Photo Legend blog post series. Should I restart it? Hit the Kudos button to cast your vote!

These emerging AI bot companions are the product of a stupid motivation by Zuck and Musk: trying to keep humans disconnected from each other so they can hook them up with AI bots. 🤮 Think of this as "social network 3.0". This is beyond ridiculous, dangerous and should be prohibited.

This morning, with my coffee, just like yesterday and likely tomorrow, I visited Inoreader, Techmeme, Hacker News, Micro.blog, Digg (beta), Glass, and Pixelfed to find inspiration and stay informed. That's how my morning life goes before starting to work. 

GenAI and Content Creator both sounds bad to me. Content to me sounds like "filler" or "filling an empty space with something". Generative pretty much goes well with Content, and doesn't make it look better. I prefer something like: contributor because it leaves the door open to "human creativity", "putting things out there". 

I spent some time this morning with my coffee to update and tweak my recently launched website: Who Is Numeric Citizen? What else should I include in this type of landing page? What would you like to learn from me?

I'm sorry to tell you that Apple is making me hate... glass. They better fix their game before this fall.
