All right #content people, where do you get images for your content these days? We've experimented with #AI art. But we've found open source images with a snazzy filter (like the image for this blog: https://wagtail.org/blog/gsoc-2021-wrapup/) work just as well.

Can there be a #ResponsibleAI approach to generating art? If not, how do you source your art?

I’m looking for a mobile app / PWA that could let me create a new branch on a git repo, and create commits to that branch as I update a markdown draft based on an @astro content collection.

Does such a thing exist? I’d like to avoid hosting a fully fledged CMS.

I just saw a website selling their #AI platform. It's for building a #cms (content management system). Unlike others, it uses the AI to build the system, but not design the front end.

Nice idea! Customised CMS for your exact needs!!!

2 secs later, watching the video, I realised; it builds the system based on your *initial* prompt. When has a client ever known what they want before experimentation?

And how do you then fix a system you're already using, which you didn't build?

Nope.
