@justky1018 This reminds me of a joke I heard from Slavoj Zizek: a man is painting a woman in the nude and during one of their breaks they are having coffee, she has a robe on, the man hears his wife's car and says, "quick, take off your robe or my wife will suspect we are having an affair."

@venturetwins I'm in several AI art groups on fb and they are what one might call 'safe spaces'. People are kind to each other and often remind others to use AI for good, "ethically". I'd like to believe that's possible, but knowing how people are, knowing how internet users are (ie 4chan)...

@kahtrinuh @_yung_bukowski_ Noah and Meadow were too entitled and too focused on their romantic life to give a damn about the room-mate who was clearly spiralling deeper into her own depression. Their relationship with her could be seen as an allegory of society as a whole imo.

@Orugario_ This is why AI cannot and should not be copyrightable. There is currently a concerted effort to "educate" the US Copyright Office by a leading figure in the AI art movement, and though it seems so ridiculous to me, but this is precisely where we are.
