Are you making changes to stay successful in your career as AI transforms workplaces?
Getting new training?
Sharpening some skills while letting others fall away?
Changing careers entirely?

“Stunning”—Midjourney update wows AI artists with camera-like feature (Ars Technica / Benj Edwards) You can zoom images out to show more background. Sweet!
I’ve surprised myself how much I enjoy playing with Midjourney. I’m not generally a visual-arts person.
