In Search of Augmented Capabilities Using AI
I want to augment my creative capabilities1. I’m considering the best way to pay for Augmented Intelligence (AI) services2. I’m currently subscribing to MidJourney for imagery. ChatGPT with GPT-4 is not cheap at 20 $US a month, but I get Dall.E 3. Raycast enables GPT-4 for 8 $US on top of my 8 $US, totalling 16 $US monthly, but I don’t get Dall.E 3. I prefer MidJourney over Dall.E 3 as it seems to allow more diversity in requests. Continue reading →

I wish Inoreader offered some form of article summarization via AI for some of my feeds…

Following the release of Ghost’s new “Recommendations” feature this week, I set up my recommendations list. Some here might recognize themselves! 👀

Shot on iPhone. Edited on Mac.
This short behind-the-scenes look at Apple’s “Scary Fast” event is the highlight of a marketing masterpiece. First, Apple, a highly-respected company for producing top-quality new product announcements, released new iPhones capable of high-quality filming in September. Next, in October, the company made another top-notch production and announced the first M3-based Macs. Not to be missed, and that is the key here, they slip the following at the very last moment of the presentation: Continue reading →

It’s probably my best screenshot of yesterday’s Scary Fast event. Happy Halloween, everyone! 👻

If rumours are to be believed, announcing new M3 MacBook Pro machines tonight in a more “general-public-type-of-event” is strange. Is an M3 iMac general-public? Targeting a more focused pro-level audience would have been more understandable. There has to be something special to warrant such weird timing, no?1,2 🤔

Looking for a Useful and Secure Search Engine
I’m fed up of Google’s search capabilities and business model. Search results quality has gone downhill in recent years. I don’t like the visual design of Google’s online products in general, especially Google Search results formatting. What search engine are you using? Are you willing to pay for using one, if yes, which one? 🤔 Continue reading →

So far, I have not felt excited about the upcoming “Scary Fast” event. Maybe tomorrow morning? I’m not thinking of upgrading my Macs. This could explain it.

👉🏻 I just finished updating my complete content creator toolset with recent changes in my workflows. Enjoy the ride!

Since iOS 17.1 in Music.app, Favourite 🌟 replaced Love ❤️? What if I love a song but it is not one of my favourites? 🤔

I spent some time on Bluesky this morning… found out that I have 6 invite codes. Is anyone looking for one of them? Let me know.

Hello, Again, Mac?
Surprised by this late-October Apple event (“Scary Fast”). Could this be about Mac gaming? Is this for the Apple Silicon M3? The timing is weird, in my opinion. What about the iMac with M2 and a new iMac Pro with M3? The latter wouldn’t make too much sense as Pros prefer more flexibility than an all-in-one Mac. But using the Mac happy face really points to a Mac-only event. And boy, do I like this animation that I’m including here for my own pleasure1. Continue reading →

Glass Opens Up a Little Bit More
Glass feels right at home in Capture One. Long adored as one of the best platforms for editing and managing a photography workflow, we’re thrilled to include publishing to Glass in Capture One. The final step in the creative process is sharing the work you’ve made — making that as easy and frictionless as possible is what we’re both all about. Source: Capture One x Glass — Glass I like where Glass is going. Continue reading →

A recent addition to Mailbrew made me discover Brief.news1. So far, I like what I’m seeing. News briefs are generated with AI (with LLM models, I’m guessing). It’s a great use case of AI, right here. The combination with Mailbrew makes perfect sense, too.

It’s a free service for now. I wonder what is their business model? 🤔 ↩︎

Touch down. I’m back from Las Vegas! What a ride. What a city! I’m not loving everything about this place for sure. 😐

Today is a reminder that the internet is probably the worst place to have a debate. You would think that Mastodon or Bluesky or Thread are better than X, Y and Z? Nope. Same. Arguing the contrary is shortsighted. Even arguing in a text message conversation is not a good idea.
