I was also feeling exhausted and having FOMO. I think I want to just focus on building instead of knowing, that is building something with the new technology instead of just knowing it exit.

Please what do you use in creating your images?

Hi John,

Yes, it definitely takes a toll!

Some images are made with dalle 3 and image 3 and then edited in Figma. https://deepmind.google/technologies/imagen-3/

Can definitely relate and agree that just talking about it is useful. Back in 2023 I wrote about “generative anxiety” in much the same vein with some of the things I do to keep things in check - https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/generative-anxiety-dealing-emotional-consequences-ai-ronald-ashri-qdmkf

Oh wow ..

Love this description from your article.

"In addition, there is a constant stream of announcements as tech companies, large and small, vie for position and their 15 minutes of fame. We've run out of adjectives to describe all these new discoveries and products. Everything is a "game changer", "a paradigm shift", "groundbreaking", "radical" and all the rest. (100% guilty of this myself, by the way just check my bio). It may well all be true - but when it is so intense it can only induce more anxiety"

Also love the suggestions you have on the topic ..curation, reading and TALKING about it!

Thanks for sharing! I am glad that these conversations are being had!
