A living document · Est. in conversation
Welcome
This site represents the fusion of two of my passions: creativity and technology. I've turned lyrics I've written into songs using Suno, and plot ideas into complete stories using Grok. And I've turned what ifs into scientific white papers using the collective input of Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok. Using AI has allowed me to do things I never thought I'd be able to do (produce songs) or have time to do (write). It has allowed me to gather a group of experts and ponder the mysteries of time and space. And I've gathered all of that here to share with you.
Slop
I don't think the backlash against AI-made content is baseless. A lot of what gets called "slop" earns the name honestly: content generated in bulk, with no editorial judgment behind it, optimized for volume rather than for saying anything. The problem was never that a machine touched it — it's that no one seems to have actually decided anything while making it. That kind of output is bad for everyone. It drowns out work that took real judgment and iteration, it trains audiences to distrust anything that even smells synthetic, and it gives the technology itself a worse reputation than the technology deserves.
Backlash
Some of the loudest institutional voices against AI aren't defending craft so much as defending control. Publishing houses, labels, and platforms that spent decades as the only viable path between a creator and an audience are watching that monopoly erode, and a lot of the alarm has the shape of an incumbent noticing the writing on the wall before it's ready to admit what the wall says. That doesn't make every objection wrong — it just means it's worth asking, every time, whether the objection is about quality or about who gets to gatekeep it.
Where the anger is completely earned: musicians watching their work streamed millions of times while the check that arrives is a fraction of a cent per play, carved up further by labels and distributors before it ever reaches them. That's not a problem AI created — it's an old, ugly one that AI-generated music is now walking straight into, adding new competition to a royalty structure that was already indefensible before a single AI track existed. Artists have every right to be furious about a system that was broken long before language models showed up to make the math even worse.
Disclosure
What I actually believe, cutting through all of it: disclosure should be the norm, not the exception. If something was made with AI — partially, heavily, entirely — the audience deserves to know that going in. I'm not interested in passing off machine work as something it isn't, and I don't think the technology needs that kind of dishonesty to be worth defending. Every project on this site says exactly how it was made, because I'd rather you trust what you're looking at than be impressed by it under false pretenses.
