Reading indoors today, on account of spring rains. Cracking open a new book and have never been faced with this before - not to complain or pass judgement, but what are the benefits of such a decision? Is this a publisher preference or author? Is this becoming common practice?

@JuliaAngwin Just read the article in the local public library - from the front page your article is on page 15. Humorously, you'll never guess what one finds while flipping from the header to the rest of the article:

However, maybe we have found an ally in art education in the forthcoming army of LLMs employed to be a second brain for the Global Curious. As a final treat, the music this thread was written to, discovered during this very Internet expedition. Enjoy.

An LLM and art identification:

Today I attempted to discover the title and artist of a painting I saw a glimpse of while on YouTube. To begin, the painting, seen here, is entitled "La civilització del califat de Còrdova en temps d’Abd al-Rahman III" by Dionís Baixeras (1885)
