DALLĀ·E mini by hugging face AI tool - 01/14/2023
I grew up in Columbus Ohio, my favorite pro sports teams were the Cleveland Indians now called Guardians, the Cleveland Browns, Cleveland Cavs so I had to try out the new tool mini that is open to the public for the last couple weeks. This tool is an artificial intelligence tool that you can make any query (search term) on to see what it spits out for results. If you plug in videos games, tv shows, movies its seems to have good results and knows what you are talking about I havent tried little known titles but there is enough to make it worth checking out in my opinion. This is all original work not made until you send it in, if you do the same term you will get new returns as well for the same topic. This one was a mash up of Cleveland pro teams.
So why share this on ActiveRain, well I would say this is to prove that this is a person typing this and not a robot also lets you get to know the person behind the blog a bit when we move to incorporate more than real estate only blog post.

Wondering if any architects will gain inspiration from AI - 01/13/2023
I had to of course see what kind of home an openai source based on gtp3 machines would come up with when putting in the term Buy A Florida Vacation Home matching my website name https://www.BuyAFloridaVacationHome.com
the program is said to be a smaller version of gpt3 using 12 billion parameters instead of 175 billion. It is still interesting to me and creative and it only takes a minute to get results. It said to be a neural network developed based on OpenAI another thing Elon Musk has his hand in is OpenAI. This smaller version uses a dataset of text-image pairs instead of very broad dataset like gpt3. If you google hackermoon thats normally a good site for tech specs on topics.

So you bought an NFT what else can you do with them ? part 2 - 01/12/2023
You might have seen https://activerain.com/blogsview/5734588/visit-the-nft-virtual-reality-vr-gallery-oncyber-lgbt
This previous post discussed who was in the gallery in the way of the Marble Cards NFTS. I have made dozens of galleries with Oncyber gallery.
Here is another Gallery I made using the NFTs I have purchased. Here is the website address if you wanted to take a gallery tour today https://oncyber.io/nbanfts
ActiveRain seems to not be cooperating with me today. I tried multiple browsers and added the above image from twitter with the twitter link direct added into the source space. I think they should bring back the bubble for newer members and or members that havent been on for some time as an explainer. After trying the normal upload image button, tried the Responsive Filemanager at first I started out with a screenshot (901) and it wouldnt upload with a () around the image. Then went on to update the name. That didnt do it so had to change the file type in paint.net I thought that worked to display in the file manager after renaming it started to show image but again wouldnt display here ActiveRain Real Estate Network so tagging AR to see if something needs done behind the scenes on my account.
Here is the link if you would like to check out the additional view.

So you bought an NFT what else can you do with them ? - 01/11/2023
You may have seen my previous post during Pride month.
https://activerain.com/blogsview/5734580/marble-cards-1st-lgbt-deck-nft
If you didnt see that one about the 1st deck nft on Marble Cards one of the original NFT projects on Opensea you might have seen this one.
https://activerain.com/blogsview/5734579/happy-pride-month-and-remember-the-past-twitter-nft
Reminding everyone to not forget that we have been through this in Florida with rights being abused by elected officials (mind you I wasnt born yet last time) doesnt mean you cant know that it happen.
You might have seen the thank you post to ERA American

https://activerain.com/blogsview/5734563/national-gay-and-lesbian-chamber-of-commerce-twitter-collection--nft
One of the NFTs that I made before Pride month then used on my social media's. The Marble Twitter collection cards/nfts were a good post to share on Instagram, Facebook Buisiness page, Wordpress, here on ActiveRain along with Twitter itself and on my website on the blog there. Just one reuse of content to create a new NFT.

Instagram starts marketplace 2 compete against using their influencers - 01/10/2023
I was on @linkedin and noticed this article I hope this will be a benefit to artist and creators https://techcrunch.com/2022/07/13/instagram-creator-marketplace which links to this article on the release of a new marketplace for instagram influencers. I have seen business stories before about startups years ago who offered these services seems like Meta has seen the same stories and decided to let businesses go to the source direct at Instagram to let businesses get with creators to help their brand and do campaigns with direct agreements. This is possibly a smart business move with of course likely a cut to go to Meta aka Facebook or formerly known as Facebook. I dont know all details as it just rolled out but interesting their normal model has been free at first functions that sometimes get monetized direct or sometimes they try to really build and just get the ad dollar through the attention token revenue of selling ads but we will see what they do with this business section Meta Business Suite https://business.instagram.com/blog/creator-marketplace-discover-partnerships

Instagram NFTs are coming Introducing Digital Collectibles - 01/09/2023
If you missed the news in May Instagram is working with select accounts right now and has been for months to sell the post that artist and celebrities post to instagram you can check out more news on it here
https://about.instagram.com/blog/announcements/instagram-digital-collectibles
This article covers Connecting a digital wallet , Sharing digital collectibles , Automatic tagging of both the creator and collector
They are starting with Ethereum and Polygon layer 2 but will be adding Solana and Flow (that one is known for NBA Topshot)
Metamask works right now but they say they are adding Coinbase wallet, Dapper and Phantom wallets.
I havent been a fan of Facebook and have distrust of their products as a whole but I do like what they are saying here with "lower barriers to entry" "help make the NFT space more inclusive to all communities."
Meta is buying carbon credits to off set energy use.
These are the first accounts rolled out to use nfts on instagram.
Use the link above to view the accounts now using nfts on instagram.
Do I think that everyones post will be able to be listed for sale in the future I do.
There are already companies that have been around for a bit like Cent who sold Jack Dorsey first tweet https://v.cent.co/tweet/20

You might have heard Coinbase has started an NFT marketplace - 01/08/2023
Here is a link to my profile https://nft.coinbase.com/@cavstheblockfan chances are if you watch any Crypto news reports whether it is Bloombergs show called Bloomberg Crypto that streams on the Bloomberg + tab every Tuesday or if you watch https://www.cnbc.com/cryptoworld thats on Monday through Friday at 3 eastern you have probably heard that Coinbase has started their NFT market
while the reports are that the user creation accounts werent as strong as expected I have to say I was on there the first weekend of the public launch and found 1,000 people to follow with little to no issue.
I found the Dune analytics report that came out to have potential errors of first reports from the portal and it was picked up by techcrunch https://twitter.com/CavsTheBlockFan/status/1523429824651423745 . Keeping in mind these portals on Dune can be user created it was from a respected longtime user that had good feedback I dont think they misreported info I just think it was flawed info and reached out to them on Twitter however received no response meanwhile I found media outlets just reported the same source the info they found from this source, that is one thing to keep in mind with Crytpo reports not all reporters even understand how the data is put together or research the researchers. @DuneAnalytics user reported a total of only 1500 accounts but I had found 1,000 with ease and just following one
account that had followed 1,000 so to say only 1500 seem to be bad data

Spoke on the topic of nfts and crypto on AR Zoom weekly - 01/07/2023
I was invited a few weeks ago to plan to speak on the upcoming Zoom weekly meeting with ActiveRain, while I have written thousands of post in the Rain this was my first time giving a presentation on a zoom call to a group thank you to Eileen Burns for the invitation to speak today on the topic of Crypto and nfts. I started a group https://activerain.com/groups/NFT here on ActiveRain and intend to tag post about the topics of nft and related along with #web3 wallets and coins when I post about them. I know this topic isnt for everyone but do believe with the Dodd Frank act being implemented and banks needing to have all assets on blockchain this will be something that is coming for the future of real estate and its good to plan ahead.
The adoption takes sometime for the banks to do private blockchain and public parts of the chain as a hybrid to beta test the formfree Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac approved usage of personal info on the chain for underwriter desktop appraisals and valuations.
Thank you to Debe Maxwell, CRS for starting things off today as I understand she always does and to George Souto for the blogpost being featured on the homepage my first time on the homepage, along with thanks for the intro today.
Thank you to Kathy Streib for the questions and helping fill in with moderation.
I know there was a lot to cover and wanted to split the time between presentation and questions, lots of good questions today. Thank you @myra for helping with moving through the slideshow.
I invite everyone to the NFT group to keep up with new things nft and crypto, metaverse and thank you to everyone for the questions today. Feel free to comment here or reach out if you have questions or send a comment on one of the post on a topic in the group your interested in if I can help with something.

Thank you to Res.Net for featuring me on the new agent spotlight - 01/06/2023
I have written about Res.Net before on AR over the many years of being certified.
https://activerain.com/blogsview/5334430/i-have-renewed-my-res-net-certification-profile-this-year-2019
The certification assured asset managers at banks that you know how to move around in the system and cover the basics and a little advanced features of pulling docs when allowed, looking at chain of connections servicers etc.
https://activerain.com/blogsview/3486027/res-net-now-offers-advertising-for-prelisted-aka-premarket-properties
Many followed this model of coming soon.

https://activerain.com/blogsview/5478668/res-net-closed-property-award-february-2020
I was asked by Res.Net to submit a form with information on suggestions and overview for future uses with their promotions of agents. I like that they are trying to use their social media Linkedin and other channels to promote agents on their network.

Seem you have to be logged in to share the link on PropOffers.com - 01/05/2023
I just listed a property https://activerain.com/blogsview/5746236/1032-whitehead-dr-holt-fl-reo-just-listed-with-1-acre-79-900 and as one would do I went to social to share on ActiveRain, next stop was Twitter however there is no share feature from the propoffers.com platform on top of that they add a wall where you have to login to even view the property. I have to wonder how many investor, note holders on defaults and banks know that its such limited on this platform for exposure and that this limits the speed at which their listings get syndicated to socials and platforms and really wonder the thoughts behind the wall login structure that some sites have moved to despite this more banks are moving to this platform.
