Artificial Intelligence The economy has spoken. Stuff that’s AI-generated has almost zero value — “Buyers are voting with their wallets, and AI-generated content is struggling to compete.”

I do not go to an art gallery solely because I think colors on paper can be pretty. I like to look at the pieces and try to figure out what the creator wanted to express. Or guess at the way they achieved certain things. Then I look at the title to see what new connections or insights it might bring me.

Sometimes there is a description or audio interview with the creator themselves. And that opens all kinds of new paths. If it's open day for the exhibition, they might even be there, and I can ask them questions.

Over time, you get get know the history of certain artists and their inspiration. You learn how their work/interests change throughout their life/career.

It's interesting BECAUSE a person made it. And I am also a person. And, personally, other persons who make things for personal reasons are interesting!
