  • Introducing Ealain for macOS v1.0

    About two years ago I released a screensaver for macOS called Ealain, and versioned it v0.1 because it was not quite living up to my original vision for the screensaver. And while it has grown in popularity regardless, I always knew it could be better. Ealain is meant to be a macOS screensaver that is…

  • Introducing Inneal

    While most of my AI related app releases have been dedicated to image generation, (counting two Ealain releases and then Aislingeach), my gateway into generative AI was chatbots. If you look at the chronology of this blog, that’s pretty obvious, since it all began with my post about “uncensored” chatbots, which I’ve recently updated to…

  • The Varying Levels of Getting Started with “Uncensored” LLM-Powered Chatbots (2024 Update)

    This post is an update to my previous post, May 2023’s “The Varying Levels of Getting Started with “Uncensored” LLM-Powered Chatbots“. A lot has happened in 11 months. Well, not a lot, but, things have changed a bit. I think that post is still worth reading, because it explains more in depth what we’re talking…

  • Introducing Ealain for Apple TV

    Just 11 days ago, I released Ealain for Vision Pro and now I’m very happy to introduce Ealain for Apple TV, which is the same app, it’s just for Apple TV now. You can find it at the same App Store page for Ealain for Vision Pro, because it’s a universal app (or whatever they…

  • Introducing Ealain for Vision Pro

    A few months ago I released Ealain, a screensaver for macOS that shows bauhaus-style abstract art generated with Stable Diffusion. When I got the Vision Pro, I thought about which of my apps or screensavers would make the most sense ported over. This process took a while and was rife with indecision. Eventually I realized…

  • Introducing Aislingeach

    Back in May (2023) I stumbled my way into a a full blown interest in what people are erroneously calling “artificial intelligence”. I’d played with Midjourney back when it first gained traction, and even paid for a month of access, but my interest in it quickly faded. It wasn’t until I learned there was a…

  • Introducing Ealain

    I mentioned the other day I was working on an app for generative art, a year or so late to the bandwagon. While playing with it, I stumbled on a great way to generative abstract art, in the vein of bauhaus, and it reminded me of a want I’ve had for years: a screensaver that…

  • The Varying Levels of Getting Started with “Uncensored” LLM-Powered Chatbots

    Update – April 2024: I wrote an update post for this one, you can read it over here. Original Post – May 2023: LLMs like ChatGPT have been in the news quite a bit, but I’d mostly avoided using them too much because they seemed silly, probably due to my own deep seated fears about…
