I still genuinely think the best thing you can do as a developing artist is recognize that GenAI is mostly a trap that a lot of people are falling for. There are so many skills you can grow and AI is more or less a distraction, an inferior workflow and delivers worse results.

You will always feel like you are too late. You will always feel like things used to be easier/better.
These feelings are not necessarily true nor are they feelings you should base your actions on.
Because in ten years people will look back at right now in the same way.

Thirty years from now, gen-betas on the internet will waste their lives doom posting how it was so much easier for artists to succeed in 2026.

Not to get carried away by hype, but this has potential to genuinely be the best LotR content we've gotten since the original Jackson trilogy. GL to Warhorse, what a dream project!

The idea that typing out commands to prompt AI is more efficient than using UI is preposterous.
That's not to say there won't be legitimate use cases, but for *most tasks* in Blender that is not it.

Being a dad is the best. My son turns seven today, which is both unbeleviable because time goes so fast. At the same time it's impossible to imagine him not being a part of my life.
Having kids is both the biggest blessing and greatest thing I've ever done.
