In India, especially, the rise of "AI Driven" designers is quite rampant. A lot of my linkedIn connections have changed their headlines to 'AI Driven'. If your entire career is driven by a tool as opposed to methods and skill, you are doing UX wrong.

I've been interviewing candidates for research and design positions. One of the key rejection factors - even for a large AI forward company - is heavy use of AI in UX Research. I've seen personas generated using ChatGPT, fictional user interview data and even entire case studies generated by AI.

The forecast promised clear skies, but a blanket of dawn mist over the lake turned the morning into this scene.

思いのほか気温が低かったせいで朝靄が出てしまったけどこれはこれでアリかもね😎

I am not surprised. Majority of Indian content on the internet have caste biases. Majority of Indian GenAI users also display a caste-biased behavior.

OpenAI is huge in India. Its models are steeped in caste bias.

India is OpenAI’s second-largest market, but ChatGPT and Sora reproduce caste stereotypes that harm millions of people.

When my niece started showing an interest in photography, I was thrilled to give to her the first camera I owned and used to learn the craft, a Nikon FE.
This is from a recent hike into the mountains of Vermont, where we both photographed the same scenes. So fun 😃
#scenicphotography #blackandwhite

Black and white landscape photograph of distant mountain ridges beneath a vast, turbulent sky. Layers of dark hills stretch across the bottom of the frame, their shapes fading into mist and shadow. Above them, dense clouds billow and swirl, forming intricate textures of light and gray. The scene feels calm yet foreboding, suggesting an approaching storm or a moment of stillness before one.

My plan was to photograph the moon rise, from behind the hills, but it was completely clouded, and now that the moon is high up, there's not even clouds to work something interesting.

#Photography #SkySky #EastCoastKin #NightSky

photograph of the moon shot with a 450mm, on Z6III

you can see the hill, and lights in the foothill, and some clouds as well.

#TwosDay These two belted kingfishers are discussing property rights at the Lagoon. Let's try to have a good day. #Birds #Photography #Nature

A male and female kingfisher stand on a telephone wire facing each other against a clear blue sky. The both have wings extended and tails flaired as their beaks point at each other. One has the beak open in conversation with the other.

These Lynx Spiders are super tiny, so I added my Raynox DCR-250 to my Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro Lens.

Red-shouldered hawk fly-by yesterday. #Birds #Photography #Nature

Hawk flies through a bluish gray sky from left to right. Red shoulders really light up in this shot in the morning light. Blurry reddish tree in the bottom left and blurry green trees bottom right frame the bird.

#Bahrain is currently experiencing a massive influx of migrating Purple Herons. Most have been seen flying across the Island; one flock was over 80 birds. Most Years, we only get 5 or 6 recorded, yet so far over 120 have been seen. Why, good question (Pic from my own personal archive) #Birds

I got another lifer - Indian Nightjar (I think).
It's a miracle that at least some part of the bird is in focus. Taken at a shutter speed of 1/20, the lens at 600mm. The image stabilization of A7RV is insane compared to A7IV.

Indian nightjar resting on a dirt track at night in Kanakapura, Karnataka, its plumage blending seamlessly with the earthy ground.
