Im happy to prosper from the work of other commercial artists while feeding the pool.

I’ve been shamed for j-walking in Germany. Sorry, you didn’t debunk anything you just invited a bunch of puritanical nonsense to the nude beach.

Maybe you can convince a therapist to use the AI with you and fill some gaps? I wouldn’t be surprised if this type of hybrid approach would be useful in some situations.
