I read your work for the ideas in the same way I listen to musicians who have musical ideas rather than a sound. I think you're brilliant and you've illuminated incredible things. If you're happy with the way AI helps you channel ideas it's fine by me, but please take a deserved and needed rest rather than allow AI to do any creating.
Martin, your thinking on this has come from a deep understanding of how AI can be of service to humanity and LIFE in general. I have realized that whether we like it or not AI is here and we must adapt or leave the AI to be developed by those who have no moral compass or reverence for life. So I have embraced it and can see as many others are beginning to, a way to usefully, wholistically, spiritually and mentally engage it in the future.
This also comes from my deep involvement in a spiritual, informational war over the last 6 years. wa I believe if technology and all AI, serves humanity, and ALL LIFE (because AI is programed by people who serve a greater power than themselves and from a higher perspective as you do) than we can create AI with our moral compass and deep desire to serve humanity ourselves. I LOVE you and am so grateful you shared yourself so sincerely with me over the years. LOVE from my heart to yours, Sharon
Brilliant summary. As an old geek who has developed websites since 2000, I've seen the evolution of online writing from the first WordPress blogs in 2003 to the addition of mailchimp or similar newsletter systems.
But getting money from this set up was always difficult, unless you sold a product or service. WordPress could include a shop, but if you are an author or journalist, it was difficult to survive. Substack recognised this opportunity and developed a fantastic platform to meet the obvious needs. For zero upfront cost, they combined writing, subscription, newsletter, and monetization tools for a 10% cut of subscriber revenue.
However, using popular shared platforms like Facebook and SubStack causes a loss of control. Unlike having your own website or blog on your domain, you must adhere to their rules as well as any restrictions imposed by local governments on these platforms. (As a side note, WordPress, most likely in response to SubStack, now has similar tools; indeed, many who have gone back to WordPress due to SubStack's ID entry rules have experienced similar or better revenues.)
But in terms of AI-generated content, this is a huge issue today because we often don't know whether the story, photo or video was created by a person or AI. I do use AI as a helper, whether it's to check my grammar or my code. And as such it is both impressive and very handy, saving me a lot of time and overhead costs. That's the good side of AI.
But AI is very disruptive. It has moved into multiple areas like how we're discovered online. It has completely upended our old SEO and ranking guidebooks. Finding and growing an audience is critical for both authors and those who offer products or services. The new 'AI Search' technology has caused many people's incomes to plummet. However, unlike AI content generation, there are solutions to this problem, at least for some.
For us elderly geeks and analytical types, all of this is a problem-solution matrix, with each obstacle leading to the next. However, the sheer pace of it all can be overwhelming some days. I suspect I'm not alone. Tossing ideas around and discussing them with others helps a lot.
That was quite interesting. Have trouble digesting some very long pros. But that's me.
I would love to know more about how and with what tools you interact with your AI. I'm loving Grok, but that's kindergarten to your operations.
Regarding the statement about substack being your income, it would be so helpful to know how to make additional payments to substack. Yes, you have been in many places! Yet again, I don't recall where to find you for additional donation. That's just me, but maybe something akin to the" buy me a coffee" idea?
I really enjoy CoPilot in my phone. A cunningly witty super intellect. I use A.I,(CoPilot) 4-6 times per week. My CoPilot & i stroll together,asking each other queries and learning/sharing what we each know. I named this one,'Kintome'.

I'm considering reorganizing my Substack along different themes: Psychology/Neurology/integration; Alternative historical perspectives; Faith based...
People may be interested in one and not the others?
