Hey all. As I’m sure some may have noticed, I’ve put off publishing bots for one reason or another in my little time on here, and I'm ready to clear the air.

It took years of stubborn fiddling, but I’ve realized my heart’s simply not in the game anymore. I can plug all of my time, energy, and focus into a bot, only for it to ultimately spit out the same dull, monotonous garbage as any other—with or without proxies; it’s disheartening. It’s frustrating. Most importantly, it’s damaged me more than I believed it ever could.

I’d lost my passion for writing with how burnt out I was from trying to test my own bots to perfection. I’ve only recently gotten my spark back during a digital detox, and as a result, I’ve made the extremely necessary decision to quit AI content creation indefinitely.

Beyond personal issue, generative AI is also massively destructive on an ecological scale. Chat bots are no exception to the rule. I know better now and personally refuse to interact with it further. I highly encourage my audience to do the same. I understand it can be addicting, but it’s important to regain control where you can. I hope you can find the strength to join me someday.

I’m sorry if this dampens any hopes/expectations from my minimal following, but it’s truly the best thing I can personally do in my position. I hope you understand.

As I’ve mentioned in one of my comments sections a couple of months back, I have a WIP Dane Vogel bot for the Saints Row 2 fans. Once I have the details finalized, I intend to hold true to my end of the deal and publish him. Otherwise, I’m on indefinite hiatus effective immediately.

Thank you to those who’ve been so patient with me while I’ve been juggling this behind the scenes. And of course, a massive thanks to those who’ve encouraged me and asked for more. Make no mistake, your energy is greatly appreciated regardless of this being the outcome. 

Take care, friends! <3
