Hexagon has been my most incredible creative venture thus far, but itβs time to say goodbye (for now).

Writing tip: After you finish, go back & cut all the adverbs. Then all the adjectives. Then all the other words. Eat the paper. Now you're free.

A long video, but excellent. The biggest highlight? A clip from a news conference(?) where Ben Affleck said of AI: "It's a craftsman that knows how to work, but art is knowing when to stop."
