Over the past six months, Blowfish Lab has been overwhelmed by too much technology and AI; it’s time to add some architecture back into the mix.

Dataset?

After returning from Japan, while the sense of wonder was still fresh, I took the opportunity to add a feature to Blowfish Lab that I’ve wanted to implement for a long time.

Here, the focus is primarily on locations, supplemented by photos, and text… depending on my mood. It records the architecture, spaces, coffee, and more that I have personally experienced. Even as time gradually fades unimportant memories, the understanding and feelings of the world have already been internalized into my subconscious, subsequently developing into personal thoughts and values. These things—selected, experienced, absorbed, diluted, faded, and left behind—are the cornerstones that shape an individual, and they are what distinguish us from others and from AI.

This was also prompted by the fact that photo map features and Google Maps bookmarks have become cluttered and overwhelming, making it difficult to see where I’ve actually been. So, I’m organizing them here. Consider this a refined dataset for training myself—an architecture and coffee map that I’m happy to share with everyone.
