Allow me to re-introduce myself

I’ll be using AI on this website—to help me learn and experiment with using LLMs to build things outside of work. Mostly, this will be to add features and to maintain the blog.

I may use AI to help me brainstorm post ideas, help me edit my posts, or help me guide some stream of consciousness in a direction. But let me promise you now: these words will be my words. AI may augment my writing process, but it will not replace it.

It is important to me that these posts sound like you’re talking to me, Katie Hughes, a real thinking and feeling person.

You’ll also see my art on here! Most of my work is analog, and thus AI-free by nature. I’m not interested in generating art, generating logos, generating images. I am interested in learning analog techniques, boosting my graphic design skills, and developing my ability to draw.

I want to share the cool things I’m doing outside of the tech world here—because I want this blog to be for me as a whole person. Not as just a tech worker.

So as I revamp it, you’ll see a mix of art, life, AI thinking, side tech projects, side analog projects. It’ll be a mishmash. But know you’re hearing directly from me in my own little corner of the internet.
