Side-projects where I stress-test AI models for art, music & micro-apps, show off new paintings and other general nonsense that's not "professional."

String Theories: Creativity, Iteration, and the Soul of AI-Driven Art

I say "shut up" to naysayers who say AI takes the soul out of art, out of creativity. That's total bullshit.

AI can give you nonsense or it can help you articulate yourself in ways otherwise impossible.

AI Model Exploration

I've been spending a lot of time focusing on AI both professionally and creatively. Below are some of the tools I regularly use and find to give the best results for my purposes when designing both enterprise-level and "microsites." This is just my experience. If you think they should be reordered or other tools should be added/replaced, let me know! I'm very interested in learning new things within the AI field.
