#hwa1 #thiswouldcountforcredit I went back to the first part of the video to review something and I realized I somehow missed this... but I didn't really notice the face changes 😅

#hwa1 #burningquestion My burning question is how could my current thought-process potentially change when I see the results of the SMEs and the project. If I see how GPT responds to my inquiries that is meant to (and not) mimic me, could I possibly learn more about myself?

#hwa1 #defspedyouup I didn't even know I could speed the video up... usually I'd do x2 speed though

#hwa1 #areyoupayingattention *loud incorrect buzzer* Posting responses after the due date will only make it confusing for you and mess up the timeline.

#hwa1 #workflowcheck I understand the instructions you listed regarding how we should address this class and what we can and cannot do for the assignments.

#hwa1 Fifth thought: I honestly thought you were gonna tell us "I don't know" for the section where you go over how many tweets we'd post for this class... But to see actual numbers is insane (in an impressive way)!

#hwa1 #vibecheck I little nervous since I've never taken a class in this kind of "environment" but I am also very curious and intrigued by how everything will turn out by the end. I'm even a little excited for the chance that when the term is over, I could still look over everything I've done.

#hwa1 #thethirdvoice It comes out when our visual and verbal aspects clash with one another, because it creates an opportunity for a new opinion to form that may potentially satisfy what the image and voice seek simultaneously. It will become prominent in the final project, when that "shift" occurs.

#hwa1 #smefeelings I am interested in what SME No. 3 results will reveal about GPT's capability to assess and respond based on what changes I made and if it might actually preserve my likeness. 😳

#hwa1 Fourth thought: I think I understand what the SMEs and project are asking for, but I might need to see some examples to ensure I followed the directions correctly. Or maybe I just need to rewatch the video... 🤔

#hwa1 Third thought: I actually like the background music used during the times you show the prompts on screen. Can I ask what the title of the music is?

#hwa1 #jester The comparison between GPT and a jester is due to how both entities give responses. Just as how a jester says things in a more roundabout way to create an interesting tale, GPT provides answers that are not ways direct from the sources, since it's an amalgamation of thoughts in one.

#hwa1 #nontraditional 209 has students to step away from the common expectations of a writing class and encourages us to be more honest and free of what and how we express ourselves whether it's answering a prompt or sharing an opinion. This class feels like a breath of fresh air!
January 26, 2026 at 1:28 AM
#hwa1 Second thought: I like the webcam in the corner of the video. It makes me feel like I'm watching a streamer and it contributes to the goal of making this class feel less lonely.

#hwa1 #BlueSkynotCanvas Live posting our responses and opinions shows that we are actively engaged and replying to prompts in real-time, and helps us to feel less alone, which is usually a drawback with async classes!
January 26, 2026 at 1:11 AM
#hwa1 #notthatclass One thing that has surprised me about this class is how all are assignments and thoughts will be shared through a social media platform rather than through canvas. It's honestly refreshing to me that we get to use a different medium for class and feels more engaging.

definitely alive, my credentials are passing captchas #notabot
January 26, 2026 at 1:05 AM
#hwa1 First thought: It was smart of you to include the requirement of answering prompts from the video and locking the ability to skip ahead so that you can ensure we are fully watching and listening to your lecture

#blueskyfeelings I am also very against their AI features, Grok and the ability to edit images. As someone who dabbles in art, I understand the frustration and anger when you see someone take your art and warp it without your consent.

#blueskyfeelings I am glad we switched from twitter/X to BlueSky because I find the current state of twitter/X to be a cesspool of offensive and overly-dramatized content. I always tried to curate my feed on there to stick to my interests, but some unwanted posts still seep in.

#hello209 "Lately, I feel shaped by..." the the Chainsaw Man Movie OST: the way the music switches between intense to somber to peaceful reminds me of how quiet my life is until I remember I have work due combined with pressure
January 25, 2026 at 10:03 PM
#hello209 I would use the word "whimsical" to describe myself because the interests I have can be viewed a little childish, and my tendency to act spontaneously makes me unpredictable (I don't even know what I'll do next myself)
