If you think an artist's style looks like AI but you can scroll back through their portfolio and see them doing the same work before 2020, congrats, you're not looking at an AI grifter. You're looking at one of the original victims whose entire style AI stole.

Call me paranoid, but I have the sneaking suspicion that a whole bunch of regulations/laws are going to come in soon, and this is their genius attempt at skirting them "What? 'AI'? Oh, God no, we use 'Super Intelligence', totally different thing!" And they'll get away with it, like they always do

The formatting of this Beckett quote does still represent resilience and determination, just of a very different sort.
A neon light art piece of Samuel Beckett's famous quote "I can't go on. I'll go on" but spaced - it would seem inadvertently- so that it reads "I can't goon. I'll goon".

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano

Strange Harvest - it's basically The Poughkeepsie Tapes by way of creepypasta. Pleasant surprise, I've seen a few mockumentaries recently that have just outright sucked, but this one was pretty decent. Mr. Shiny looks like a dorkass member of Slipknot, however, and that took me out more than once.

Wow, Smile 2 was such an improvement on the original, it's not even funny. Still has an undercurrent of 'broken people are a danger to everyone', which I'm not a fan of, but as a whole, yeah, pretty decent.
