“My biggest worry about generating art in any capacity is that it takes away opportunities for people to make interesting choices. It’s really hard to pin down what makes a piece of art good. But when you create something, you’re constantly making tiny choices. And I think an author's voice is a sort of consistency and harmony between those choices. AI takes away these choices and substitutes them with a weighted average of choices that have already been made.”

These Days

1 min read
First heard this song as Nico's version, or at least it's the one that made the biggest impression on me. When Margot gets off that bus in The Royal Tenenbaums and the song starts playing my fucking heart shatters into a trillion pieces. At some point I realized it was written by Jackson Browne. Despite growing up around music and experiencing a pretty eclectic buffet of genres and voices, I'd managed to miss Jackson Browne. The history of the song is interesting. He wrote it when he was very young. You can find several of his performances on YT to enjoy. But here's him talking about the origins of the song with Sam Jones. But now I have a new favorite. It's perfect. Not a cover, but a performance. It's performed by my favorite duo, "The Other Favorites".
