When AI makes mistakes, it’s called hallucinating. There’s a better, if ruder, word for it. That means this post contains what the dictionary calls vulgar slang. You have been warned. We all know that generative AI gets things wrong. Even the people who make these tools know they get things wrong. They say so […]
There’ll come a time when you just can’t bring yourself to do the things you like to do. Here’s how to get over a slump … In 2020, the Covid year, I found myself unable to settle to anything creative. I got my craft mojo back the following year, starting with a temperature scarf […]

I’ve been writing things most of my life. Now, I’m finally starting on an actual book, and I need your help. Snow is not something we know much about in South Africa. When it snows, it’s a talking point. (Indeed, there’s a whole website devoted to the subject: Snow Report). So you might be […]
So you know how to use ChatGPT (or Claude, or Gemini). But you’re sure there’s more you could be doing. Here’s how to build yourself a virtual coach with AI (for free). Among the many uses of generative AI, there’s one that’s been gaining traction over the last while: turning to AI for personal […]
