It's not either/or, it's because. I'm constantly craving novelty, which has led me to learn a little bit about almost everything, quite a bit about many things, and achieved mastery of nothing. Hell I've been playing guitar for 25-odd years, and that's pretty much the only exception, but even there, I'm nowhere near as good as I "should" be with that much experience.
I can C+ to B just about anything that interests me, but God help me beyond that point.
Two issues I ran into were I like midjourney for grimdark artwork, but it shies away from certain things like blood, and getting chatgpt to generate poetry/lyrics with dark motifs.
But more generally, I honestly just hate being mollycoddled by a god damn robot. I'm a big boy, I know what I asked for, and I can handle the results.
