Bing AI Chat versus Google Bard: A first look
Reading Time: 5 min A few weeks ago, Microsoft added the AI power of ChatGPT to their site. Today, Google has started rolling out access to their AI, Bard, as well.

The first bit of AI with my notes
Reading Time: 4 min There are a lot of things coming with AI that I’m very excited about, and some that I’m dreading (like the deluge of AI-generated content we’re soon to face). One that I’m excited about in particular is the ability to use AI to help sort through my notes. My dream setup, in the future, is […]
AI is going to kill SEO
Reading Time: 2 min It may take quite a while, but peak SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is behind us, and the relevance of it will only go down from here.

If you aren’t familiar with what ChatGPT is, I encourage you to check out that post first and then come back here. In the week since then, usage of ChatGPT has continued to skyrocket, but now we’re also […]
Building in anticipation of new technology
Reading Time: < 1 min As I’ve been migrating my notes over to Tana, I’ve noticed that I’m doing some things that Tana doesn’t support yet, but I’m hoping they will. For those that are curious, Tana doesn’t yet let you filter backlinks in a note, but I’m tagging all of my items with things like “#meeting” and “#call” in […]
Did I write this?
Reading Time: 4 min AI technologies continue to improve, as I shared a few months ago with my post about AI-generated art. Along with art, AI-generated text has been improving rapidly as well, and the new (currently free) ChatGPT has taken things to a whole new level. In short, it’s a chatbot that can create unbelievably solid text about […]
