Post your dam AI art here and keep it out of the other threads, it's GROSS 🤮

How about sculpture? Like Rodin. I think there’s a whole musee and garden dedicated to him somewhere. I like this man. He speaks.

I have a friend who’s an artist and his best work in my view was created at the risk of his marriage. How’s ai gonna simulate that?

The Wyze CEO put his house on the line to shore up the flagging ship. Is his commitment evident in Wyze subsequent ‘work?’

The Thinker was a good piece but once you see it I don’t need to see it again.

Art to learn about the past is enjoyable just to see how things were in the past. Da Vinci was good in depiction and technical drawings. Dali was interesting to see.

I guess we all have our own likes and non-interests. Music is art to the ears. That I can enjoy.

Was that due to lack of attentiveness to his wife or not showering for weeks? Need more info to process before I judge.

That is crazy commitment. I only take moderate risks but good for him.

Why is everyone dressed in the same uniform?

We are legion

That makes sense.

He was an ‘absent father and husband’ for the extended period necessary for him to complete a big commission (public art sculpture.) He risked it and they hung on, still together.

I don’t think he risked it again, though. So…

Nicely said.

@Crease

As long as humans are still connecting with other humans and doing and making beautiful things together and for each other (and I’m recognizing that beauty is subjective), then I think we’ll be okay.

I think this ship has ‘sailed’ though, we’re ‘taking on water.’

@Crease

I guess what I’d be more concerned about is humans making the decisions not to appreciate or recognize true human artistry, so my hope would be that the assistance we get from the machines making our lives better doesn’t result in complacence and laziness,

An EMP could easily change life as we now know it. Dependency is bad.

@carverofchoice

I keep telling my kids…

But the scope and speed of change is unprecedented. This isn’t creative destruction it’s destructive destruction. When seen from the perspective of a human being.

Hello I am a human being living and breathing now not in some abstract future I can little commit to for basic sustenance.

If we could freeze time for a moment with respect to the “new work” jobs that are available now that kids could commit to into the future what those jobs be, now.

We do not know what type of work will be available to you by the time your education is complete and we ask only that you become competent, diligent and flexible so that you can fit whatever presents (and re-presents and re-presents) itself to you as you live out your fluxy working life.

What new jobs are they envisioning now to be available in any kind of specific tangible way.

[peepeep]

That’s great

The ‘extraneous’ white square becomes the iconic Wyze cube with its chestnuts in the fire!

Brilliant, boilermaker!

@ssummerlin

Artists disappearing is my biggest worry, although I am not an artist.

…yet…

@ssummerlin

I guess I have no feelings or appreciation for art.

The disconnect is so human!

@peepeep

I think this ship has ‘sailed,’ though we’re ‘taking on water.’

Could be, to an extent. How quickly do I get upset sometimes when the technology breaks or isn’t doing what I expect it to? Time to stop and breathe.

Generally, I cut-and-pilfer someone else’s work.

This is a more accurate way to think of MOST education beyond the goal of a specific job.

Other points of education:

• Critical thinking & problem solving skills (essential for adapting to New and changing circumstances)
  Foundational knowledge (ie: generals)
• Adaptability: including lifelong learning skills like how to learn and acquire new skills. Communication, teamwork, digital literacy are all transferable across lots of professions.
• Social development: interpersonal skills, understanding different perspectives, sometimes Civic engagement.
• Personal growth, resilience, commitment, follow through, etc

Personally, I have not used my university degree at all for a “job” since I got it. From that perspective it could be considered a complete waste of time and money. But I learned how to learn better, it bettered my life in many ways, but it’s been mostly irrelevant as far as my career goes. Yet, to some degree it contributed to my general life success and why I could retire in my 40’s if I want and maintain my current standard of living indefinitely.

I think education can always have benefits even if specific jobs change over time. However, I won’t push my kids to have to go through college as the norm used to be. I think things have evolved a lot and there are some pretty good alternatives.
