Reading this I've just realised what AI hype discourse reminds me of: a proud indulgent parent whose precious offspring can do no wrong; the tone in almost all reportage is breathless gushing, and never "yeah, so what?"

also feel vindicated re: my personal bugbear "responsible AI" :D. What I'd like to see as part of their argument is the role embodiment plays in human creativity: the cognitive ability (or lack thereof) is persuasive but in the same way that LLMs can't make connections, neither can it "sense" -

This had me wondering about what the motivation for AI would be to be creative, unprompted - I loved how Narayanan demonstrates that it is inevitably destined by its very defining characteristics to be forever incapable of making creative leaps that humans make due to their own limitations.

Michiel and I have written two short essays that describe our thinking around this particular moment, and what it means for artists. The zine opens out into a poster - do connect with BeFantastic or me on how to get a copy.

It's great to be able to share the outputs from this workshop I conducted on Sharing the World With AI with Michiel Baas in collaboration with @befantastic.in - we've put together a poster - a "collaborative manifesto"
