    It is so important to take the artistic out of art. Especially right now when shitgasming AI is spaffing out content with no artistic value whatsoever!

      I saw a great comment the other day that someone didn’t believe in human souls until they saw what AI “art”. The difference between human art and AI garbage made them conclude there was a distinctly human touch necessary.

        There is still a wide gap between human consciousness and what they are calling AI. He is comparing a self-aware, thinking being to a program that picks the next thing based on what it has seen a lot of. I am not arguing for human souls, just that he is comparing apples and moon dust.

        Our ability to feel and connect with the feelings of others isn’t proof of the soul, but to me that ability is as important as any metaphysical endowment

      If you take the art out of artistic all you’re left with is a stick. But it’s missing the letter “k,” so it’s a broken stick.
