Creativity Memes

AI evangelists love to pitch that you can now build apps without knowing how to code. Just prompt your way to success, they say. Ship features with vibes alone. But here's the thing: AI can't fix the fact that your brain is a barren wasteland of unoriginal thoughts. You still need something worth building. Turns out the bottleneck was never the coding—it was having a single interesting idea in the first place. So congrats, you've automated the easy part and still can't ship because you're stuck staring at a blank canvas wondering what the 47th todo app should look like.

Ah yes, the classic "SQL" - Select Query Language interface for AI art generation. Just like SQL lets you select data from databases with minimal effort, these AI generators let you "select" artistic styles with equally minimal creativity. Behold the artistic process reduced to dropdown menus! Why spend years mastering painting techniques when you can just "SELECT (626)" from photographers? It's the perfect intersection of database queries and creative expression - both equally soulless when automated. The irony of unsubscribing from an art account to generate the same art yourself isn't lost on me. It's like firing your plumber after they show you where the wrench is.

Oh. My. GOD! In this parallel universe, a robot is painting Totoro (the beloved Studio Ghibli character) instead of creating yet another AI-generated monstrosity! THE ABSOLUTE IRONY! While we're over here having existential crises about AI taking over our jobs, somewhere in the multiverse, AI is just chilling, making cute little anime portraits and living its best artsy life! Meanwhile, our GPT is busy writing passive-aggressive emails and generating 50 ways to optimize your LinkedIn profile! HONESTLY, I'D SWITCH UNIVERSES IN A HEARTBEAT! 💅
