Artists are starting to post on @heydontfomo. It’s honestly really appealing to look at on desktop / iPad. Real artists need a home not littered with ai “art”. That’s just one way FOMO differs.

lol ai founders are so out of touch with creation and art.
The future of music is one where everyone enjoys creating. Suno is #1 in the App Store for music

It’s not “AI slop” because it looks horrible it’s slop because there’s no human creativity in it. Same reason tracing manga in elementary school didn’t make you an artist. It’s poor imitation masquerading as art, and it’s exhausting how many people can’t grasp that difference
Movie industry can't call it "AI slop" anymore. This live-action fan trailer was made in few days under $500 using Higgsfield Cinema Studio v1.5. nitter.gq/minchoi/status/2009427…

The first investor to focus on creators will win big. I've been saying this for years. If you're an investor focused on creators, let's talk. I have a massive community of influencers waiting for the next big thing (I've been building it for a year now). Some have up to 22 mil.

22 milion followers. some 2 million. some half million. some work with Marvel, Sony, and other brands. Authenticity is more important than technology right now when it comes to being a creatives. These are people i personally know because i am ALSO a creative. Real connections.

Since everyone’s sharing that crappy ai Legend of Zelda video, here’s one of the best short films made by an incredible studio for LoZ Majora’s Mask. 9 years ago, and still incredible. youtu.be/vbMQfaG6lo8?si=69b6…

Building two apps simultaneously because it’s better to do that than try to fit all ideas into one single application. Building for creatives is extremely important right now and head of IG is finally starting to catch on, which means the last several years I’ve been ahead.

Moving from lovable web app to expo go app has been a slow process and don't recommend starting in lovable if you plan to release your app on the app store. You'll end up having to write the front end entirely again. That being said closer to launch on iOS

Moving my project to expo go but won’t load up. 😤 Not sure what to do at this point with it. Originally I was going with the capacitor route but realized I needed a Mac to build for iOS..

I've been heads down working on the android and iOS app versions of my platform. Not very exciting to show, but once the apps are live on the stores the influx of creatives should increase. Really excited. Android is done just need to finish the iOS version.
