Let's talk about AI

New technologies are constantly emerging to expand the capabilities of humanity. Without these new tools, human progress would stagnate, and our existence would likely be on the brink of extinction.
It's crucial to recognize that artificial intelligence (AI) is not here to steal our jobs; rather, its emergence signifies the obsolescence of certain societal functions. In such cases, the fundamental principles of Darwinism come into play: adapt or perish.

As such, artists should be the least concerned about the advent of new technologies.
Throughout history, artists have been imitated by their peers, leading to the expansion and evolution of artistic concepts. Art is not only necessary but also vital for the smooth functioning of a society.

It's truly remarkable to imagine that more individuals will be able to unleash their creativity without the need for decades of technical mastery. Personally, I would love to conceive of an image and witness it materialize before me. Imagine how wonderful that would be!

It's important to remember that art has never been, nor will it ever be, solely about technique.
Art is the pure and simple amalgamation of personal experiences within a specific time and space. The medium through which these memories are expressed holds little significance. Some choose to write poetry, others to paint, take photographs, use their bodies, or incorporate everyday objects. And now, we have the exciting emergence of a tool that generates images based on textual input. How cool!

So, let go of your reservations and embrace the freedom to exercise your creativity. Go forth and create.

Finally, I want to emphasize that the image and text presented here were NOT generated by AI.
