Due to that feeling being absent from the process and result, I am less interested in using AI tools to make my own things, unless I actually have to use them for some reason, because for my own creative work that sense of personal accomplishment is an important part of why I create things at all.
That being currently true, I do suspect that when I am much older I will take all of my art and music and photos and videos and writing and feed it into an AI tool and ask it to make all of the many works that I might have created if I had lived forever, just to experience all of that in my old age.
For the moment though, I am entirely content to make my own things by learning skills and practicing and finding solutions to problems in my own ways. It is not that I doubt what AI can do, as I know from testing it that it makes great things quickly. I simply enjoy the process of doing it myself.
I read this last night and it stuck with me. My family is building a tree house for my grandson. Everyone is contributing and getting a huge kick out of building it. The best part is that my 6 yo grandson drew up the plans. My husband, the engineer, is making it work.
This makes me smile to read. Making things yourself, and with people you care about, has a value beyond measure. I am sure that your family will cherish that tree house you all worked on together for many years to come. It sounds great!
I guess that is something that I would recommend, to any young person, find things that you enjoy doing and do not cheat yourself out of that enjoyment for any reason, because that enjoyment is the quality of your life. Quality of life is more important than anything else, in my humble opinion.
