People debate whether AI will ever be able to create good art. The answer is no. It’s impossible. If AI progresses exponentially for 100 years it still won’t be able to create any art, even bad art. That’s because art by definition is an expression of the human heart. It’s a language that can only be spoken or understood by beings with rational souls. AI can create spectacle. It can create distraction. In that sense it can create “entertainment” in its cheapest and most worthless form. But you can only confuse the machine’s soulless bullshit with art if you have made yourself nearly as numb and soulless as the machine itself.
You’re given $2m.
You have 20 minutes to spend it.
You can’t spend it on cars, airplanes, yacht or a house. You can’t spend it on golds or diamonds either.
What will you buy?
@vanwinkle_maren@SepzenoOfficial Heroes kept declining in quality. They brought it back, but the creators kept that decline going when it was off the air apparently
Every Catholic knows someone who drives 30 minutes to Mass, passing three parishes along the way.
Maybe you are that person.
But church-hopping is killing our parishes.
I get the appeal.
The music, homilies, or community are better somewhere else. But when faithful Catholics scatter across a diocese chasing the perfect parish, nobody builds anything. It causes a dilution of resources.
People aren’t working together because they don’t see each other.
That parish you hate might need you.
