My submission for the #SynthographySentiments2024 Challenge

:::Rage-filled Determination:::

I've been through hell and back over the last few years. Came near death 3 times for different reasons. (No joke)
Suffered through extreme depression and health issues that caught me by surprise after years of being an active athlete/gym rat.
Add financial problems to the equation too.

Despite it all, here I am, still alive and kicking at 36 years old. Determined to win my life back, finding incredible ambitious freedom within the world of tech, a long-time intense passion of mine. Coming from a family of musical and visual artists, math and science were never my strong suit. However, despite my passion for creativity, when it came to hand-drawing, my skills were simply not adequate for the high standards I've always set for myself.

Then, right as I was at the bottom of life and my eyes lost their shine, I found myself immersed in a new world. The world of Large Language Models. From ChatGPT, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion and the like, I suddenly felt fulfilled and enthusiastic about life again. Combining my newfound knowledge of AI with my Image Editing/Image Manipulation skills, upscaling tools and software, and video editing experience, the possibilities now felt endless.

I began learning how to work with LLMs for the past year and a half, and this new and exciting world has opened up so many entrepreneurial ideas for me. It took me into various mediums and concepts that I've only dreamed of. In the past, every job which I've held I maintained 100% integrity and pride within my work. This is no different with synthography. On top of this, I've also begun exploring other concepts for business opportunities and growth within my brand. Suffice it to say, the emerging world of artificial intelligence is simply fascinating and incredibly exciting for me, and I'm sure for many others as well. It has allowed me to breathe life back into my soul which has had its fire extinguished for a long time. It's truly a wonderful time to be alive.

Remember that the tools are not evil. Man can be good or evil. Tools are just tools. What and how we use them is what defines us. This concept applies to many different things in our life, so don't blame the technology. Just my two cents for whatever it's worth.

P.S. Yeah, I kinda look like Keanu, haha 😅
