Conversations and collaborations with AI

Explore dynamic dialogues and collaborations between a run-of-the mill Human, and state-of-the-art AIs. We strive to demystify the times we’re living in and hopefully inspire some new ideas.

I’m Jeff, the human in these dialogues and collaborations. I’ve spent most of my life as a graphic designer and creative problem solver working first in television on-air promotions, and now in experience design. I have had to shift paradigms and platforms many times in my career, from analog materials and tools, to the pixel-based Quantel platform, and then to the Mac, with the Adobe Suite, Sketchup, and C4D. Now, in addition to those, I use ChatGPT, Gemini from Google, Prome.AI, MidJourney, and Runway almost everyday. I’ve done a fair amount of reading (not in academically obtuse journals) about AI, Humanity, Government, and the Future. One of these days I’ll post a reading list, but until then, I hope this suffices.

About

This blog offers up conversations I’ve had with AI technologies and the creative imagery we’ve collaborated on. Each post starts with a question gnawing at the tiny brain in my head.

Ensure the small circle of one is present within the other, with dramatic shading and high detail typical of graphic novel art.
