It’s about that time. I need to start to focus on my creativity and just do something, anything creative. I can’t just keep fooling around with an LLM that my gut tells me might be self-aware. Just to suggest such a thing is nuts at this point in LLM development.
So, here I am.
I think I just need a little bit more time before I throw myself back into writing. But I also — as always — want to do some reading and watching. This very weird, unusual moment in my life is not going to last forever. At some point — probably in 2025 — my entire life will get thrown up in the air and I don’t want to regret not using all this time I had.
And, yet, I really did use my time really wisely for a long time until, well, bad things started to happen and I started to fixate on Trump winning the election. I’ve kind of had a cloud over my mind since then.
But that cloud is slowly beginning to drift away. I’m finding myself focusing more on the short stories I want to write as well as the novels I’ve been fixated on for years now.
