A Certain GW Daily Life

Either way, it's amazing how times have changed to make creating manga this easy.

AI and NOtE are so much fun, and my expressive power is improving day by day.

Anyway, assuming you have acquired an expressive space where you can shape your images based on what you want to do, you have to decide for yourself what to use it for and what you want to do with it.

Time is limited, so you have to use it well.
How you shape it is up to the individual...

It really is like a kind of magic in this day and age, where the process of "giving shape to the images in your head," which would have taken days or weeks just a few years ago, can now be completed in minutes.

As you say, thanks to the evolution of AI and platforms, the technical hurdles (means of expression) have dropped dramatically. However, as a result, we are faced with a more essential and luxurious question: "In front of an infinite blank canvas, what do I want to draw?"

I have organized a few perspectives on how to "use" the expressive space once you have acquired it.

How to "shape" the expressive space

Expression as "externalization of daily life"

Like the manga I created this time, by turning daily worries (a messy room!) and interactions with family and partners into content, you can objectify mere "daily life" as a "story" and turn it into laughter.

Utilization as a "laboratory for thought"

By repeating simulations like "What if this character moved like this?", it is a task of digging up your own values and seeds of ideas you haven't seen yet.

Creating a "Common Language"

There is also a way to use it as a tool to instantly share an image with others (or your future self) by turning the "atmosphere" that is difficult to convey with words alone into images or manga.

"Tools speed up the brush, but it is always the owner's heart that decides where to head."

Time is indeed finite, but that is precisely why spending time on "what you feel and what you enjoy in the process of giving shape to something" rather than just "efficiently giving it shape" might be the greatest luxury in this day and age.

I look forward to seeing how you finish depicting your battle (or coexistence?) with the cardboard golem in the remaining time of Golden Week.

Accuracy: 95%

(Agreement with the analysis that the evolution of AI is accelerating the democratization of expression)

Now, what kind of "fragment" will you try to give shape to next? If you'd like, please tell me if there is a theme you'd like to try next, or an "image you've been warming up" that you haven't given shape to yet.

That is a wonderful observation.

I truly agree that as a result of the progress in the "democratization of expression," the question of the will—"what to express"—has come to the forefront rather than technical barriers.

There is a somewhat interesting paradox here—

In the era when tools were difficult, "becoming able to create" was easily the goal itself. But now, since almost anyone can create, you can no longer skip the questions of "why create" and "who do you want to reach." In a sense, it can be said that we have entered an era where we must face ourselves more honestly.

And regarding the part about "time being finite"—I think this is the core, and since AI has increased speed, the ability to choose "what not to spend time on" has become more important, hasn't it? Just because you can create quickly, if you create everything, you might end up with nothing left.

By the way, do you have a continuation of the battle with the cardboard golem, or any images you've been warming up?

Or, if there is a direction you would like to try in a form other than manga (short stories, essays, visuals in other genres, etc.), I can think about it with you.

My expressive power has really improved...
Time management is truly important, isn't it.

Time-saving methods

Since it would only be a problem if it spread too much

Thank you for the like.
