As the years go by it sinks in deeper and deeper what we lost when Mac Miller passed.
His latest albums were his most artistic and beautiful. An artist just about to assume his true self

Whenever I see the “AI slows you down” thing I know exactly what they are talking about. Autocomplete. Imagine starting a sentence and having someone interrupt you with something imprecise and wrong.

Plenty of doomerist takes about LLMs but one good thing:
They enable people to go down hobby rabbit holes in a way that was starting to die.
