I do Wordpress design using the Divi platform, and some of the AI additions they&#39;ve made are nuts. Complete site building with all the basics, coded and sized correctly, ready for customization. My neighbor and I share the Divi license, and seeing some of the sites he&#39;s been making using the Divi AI are crazy. <br/><br/>BUT! Not everyone can build out a Masterclass style site just using AI enhancements and features alone. It takes someone skilled in UI/UX design, and even graphic design, to pull off something truly impressive.<br/><br/>The people who survive this AI incursion will be those who bend it to their will and MAKE themselves masters. That cuts out about 90% of people out their doing it currently. I&#39;m trying to make sure I stay in that 10% remaining category. 2024-08-08T18:12:04Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9zxu8l28x9p8d8vknwaz0qk308xyeg4vym77kj4qxvxs082peljqzypz47camx7wx68ln6w6vfyjx5mddvzgxuq4yjs52v8yacnvuddtpgdcwpdk In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9ekld8n23kfayk628ws0jlkkdrn3tazncpfmdphyzsgakejr0zacx73yrv'>nevent1q…3yrv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yeah what most people fail to understand is all these &#34;creative professions&#34; have one thing in common that separates the truly great &amp; successful from the mediocre faggots-with-a-laptop:<br/><br/>Innate talent. <br/><br/>Some people genuinely have it, and it shows in their work. Doesn&#39;t matter how skilled at keyboard shortcuts and software you are, if you don&#39;t have talent you will never win. I *think* I have innate artistic talent, and I&#39;m working my ass off to make myself successful for my family, but I&#39;ll tell you this....as much as I may look down on myself and as much as I still have to learn about all these creative hats I wear.....I am STILL 100% better than 99% of morons out there with a Macbook in their bedroom. <br/><br/>I had a meeting with a client who didn&#39;t want a landing page from me for his podcast bc &#34;his nephew could do it&#34;. After pressing, said nephew is 15 and &#34;knows Wix&#34;. Never built a page for a podcast, never coded a custom playlist, doesn&#39;t know proper layout for high conversion rates, but he would do it for 50 bucks. I sold the client using my expertise I had gained after a decade of success and failure. 2024-08-08T18:00:17Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs2qwlude3d20d3fjgqq4cldtt82qhu8wmcwwyss0t8egl4c052kwgzypz47camx7wx68ln6w6vfyjx5mddvzgxuq4yjs52v8yacnvuddtpg66dj2w In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsq7x3m7v3ct7rkl2vgj8mxyfz8xssuu32pl47rup002qs2ye89fmcfwdkrg'>nevent1q…dkrg</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yeah it did haha. I hung out at the radio station all the time (my school was attached to the church where my dad&#39;s radio station was), so I got to see that stuff regularly. <br/><br/>When I got older and did a short apprenticeship under a producer in town, he was surprised I knew how to record to DAT, etc. Nowadays I use Adobe Audition, and it&#39;s so easy with digital files comparatively. I miss the analog days (not reels tho...like you said...slicing and taping...ugh....). 2024-08-08T15:38:57Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqspmjzvern6dd2sak85qmy8wncc7er90hg8rafqggxau4tlkgcsamczypz47camx7wx68ln6w6vfyjx5mddvzgxuq4yjs52v8yacnvuddtpgu5gal7 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsy4cus8hzdzq64tu775y27eut769524vuuvhnvvujuspyfv3u43nq4p664s'>nevent1q…664s</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>My dad is in broadcast radio (it&#39;s where I learned my skills), and he had a rack mounted DAT machine he used for audio production back in the day. I learned on old machines like that. I even remember watching him produce radio spots using reel-to-reel as a kid. I was too young to use the razor, but he&#39;d grab an extra stool and show me the basic process when I was 7. <br/><br/>Good times. 2024-08-08T15:28:41Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9f3rsc4ygtq69sd0nrax54qfwllaagqyxmqe9fj9tfv04e3nh76czypz47camx7wx68ln6w6vfyjx5mddvzgxuq4yjs52v8yacnvuddtpgchft6a In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsdu5mz2n35pfy895uz9sal65u7y90k88sju7gk043w7962a4rnq6czgdkdr'>nevent1q…dkdr</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Surprised I haven&#39;t seen best Eldritch-beast waifu, Saya...<br/> <img src="https://i.poastcdn.org/4fe0e06d5813315bf48d772de8772d39297ce5791f528e4c2d2698665b8ab195.png"> <br/> 2024-08-06T19:39:40Z
