My 2022 Annual Review & New Years Resolutions 2023
Hello Reader,
It’s been a month since I last sent you the Stellar Platforms Newsletter, and you can expect future issues monthly, instead of weekly. For a while.
However, I will soon be starting another monthly newsletter, on the topic of Life Balance. This will be about the relationship we have to work, and rest, and how we can break it, and how we can fix it.
Click here to get on the list for Life Balance.
I have gone through a great many changes related to this topic since I emailed you last. Shortly after my last newsletter of 2022, I had a flare of my autoimmune disorder, and I was bedridden for weeks.
This is why I am late on delivering my Annual Review. Every year since 2014, I have published an Annual Review on New Year’s Eve on my personal website, followed by New Years Resolutions on January 1.
This year, I am a month late, but I have completed my yearly introspections. (I would have been disappointed to miss Year 10!)
If you’d like to know more about the changes I have gone through recently, and how I am using these changes to guide my decisions in the future, then I invite you to read these posts:

- https://caelanhuntress.com/2023/02/01/new-years-resolutions-2023/
Do you have a Big Word for this year? Have you made any resolutions?
Feel free to reply and tell me who you plan to be this year, and how your progress is going so far. I love hearing about the directions and dreams of others.

“This is the last frontier of media - billions of people making high-end content.” - Chris Valenzuela, Runway CEO Hello Reader, Prompt engineers are movie producers now. Producing video content used to require access to equipment, and talent, and funding. Not anymore. Now, you don't need a movie studio, or a graphics budget, or any skills. Just a good idea (and good taste!) can make a good movie, with a little prompting. Google's new Veo 3 model has generated some amazing new videos on the...
“AI is very good at content, but not context. Without context, it doesn’t know what to do, so it doesn’t have any purpose.” - Daniel Priestley Hello Reader, The quality of your AI outputs depends on the context you give it. What is Context with AI? Think of it like having a conversation. If your partner doesn’t know what you’ve been talking about, how can they respond well? Context is the information behind the content. Developing context is how I refine my prompts, shape my visuals, and...
📊 "Generative AI is expected to give the average worker 275 additional hours per year to dedicate to high-value tasks, improving productivity 15.5% by 2038.” - p.13 of Microsoft’s report, ‘Economic Opportunity of Generative AI in New Zealand’ Hello Reader, Last week, I taught a bunch of workshops for TechWeekNZ. This was my 7th year teaching a workshop for TechWeek, but I taught more this week than ever before. In addition to the webinar Be More Human: Do the Work that Matters Most with...
