People always doom when they realize that generative AI is going to ruin the credibility of digital media, but it’s actually very hopeful imo. The internet devolving into a fake scammy slopfest is going to force many of us to return to analog social networks & irl experiences

yall could never understand the feeling of listening to a song you and the homies made the next morning like “damnnnnnnn we snapped”
unless you love this music shit!!
Found this 1995 D’Angelo interview in the liner notes for his Live at the Jazz Cafe, London recording (translated from the original Japanese EP).
He talks about Prince inspiring him to write, produce, and play his own music + how moving to NY helped him blow up.
Victor Wembanyama explains why he said he wants to play “ethical” basketball after beating the Thunder:
“In modern basketball, we see a lot of brands of basketball that don't offer much variety in dangers they propose to the opponents. Lots of isolation ball and, sometimes, kind of forced basketball. We try to propose a brand of basketball that can be described as more old school sometimes; the Spurs way as well. So it's tactically more correct basketball, in my opinion.”
People who have accomplished everyone else’s dreams — billions of dollars of wealth, becoming a pop star, etc — themselves want nothing more than to post online and have people like and respect their posting abilities
For those people taking shots at Devin Booker! Watch this clip and relax! Devin Booker means so much to this Phoenix Suns team. Yesterday showed that in so many ways! I'm just saying 💯🤷 Respect the game, folks 👇 This matters!

anti-intellectualism has gotten so bad that people think it’s weak or inherently bad to admit that they don’t know something. people have trouble saying “i don’t know.”
