AI
There's a lot of concern about AI taking over jobs. It's true that the barrier to entry for a lot of profession is getting smaller. I've been able to pick up a lot of new projects quickly with the assistance of AI. But we will always need workers, people that can learn quickly or even specialize on a task. AI is a mean of training an unskilled worker into a skilled on. If the hat you're wearing is no longer useful, you can wear a new hat.
AI can teach you how to do something, but it can't do things for you. At least not yet. It provides a wealth of information, but because AI can hallucinate and only operates on written information publicly available and is not actually going through the process of trial and error to know what works or not in execution. A human needs to be above the AI to integrate suggestions made by AI. As well as to provide push back if a suggestion is invalid, dangerous, or wrong.
Overload
When faced with an overwhelming amount of things to do. The only thing you can do is make a list, decide what you're doing now and make it a priority to do it.
Recordings
I've been starting to record myself reading books to my children. I'm planning on slicing them into sound bites that I can use in future videos. That's not a high priority project though. Till then, just going to build up on recordings. Google Recorder is the associated app. You can access it on the web on your desktop or as an app on your mobile device. You can duplicate and slice audio recordings directly on the app.
X
I have accepted X as its own entity instead of having to include "formally known as Twitter". I hesitated and resisted but I think the addition of Grok and xAI allowed me to accept that X is no longer Twitter and that X is its own thing.
