i think that we’re still in the descent

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

Art can be everything and nothing at the same time.

Everything, because anything can become meaningful when we really pay attention to it.

Nothing, because art isn’t a substance.

Art is reality noticing itself through form.

A small circle drawn around something infinite.

@FennySylveon Nothing proved this better than @SHL0MS posting a real Monet painting and droves of people saying it was absolute shit because she told them it was made with AI

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

@FennySylveon It’s never good enough to be “real” art until you’re already established that was the exact point the Dada movement made and why Duchamp put a urinal in a museum

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

i just read this tweet which means it got copied and downloaded onto my device which means i stole it which means now this is my tweet

[detective @wormworld3]

@Salt_Slinger @zoomervt AI is not a human brain so it cannot exercise the creative effect of human inspiration which means it's just stealing

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

@wormworld3 @Salt_Slinger @zoomervt Also who do you steal from when you make a copy? Did I just steal your tweet when it got copied to my device for me to be able to read it? You still have it right? It’s not mine now is it?

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

@wormworld3 @Salt_Slinger @zoomervt So basically you just have some religious attachment to the idea of the human brain and believe it’s superior to other beings and we can count on you to treat sentient machine beings as if they are beneath you one day. Problematic.

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

@hey_akj @zoomervt Actually most have at least some sort of free tier

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

@Shifterviper @zoomervt Nobody gets to define what art is

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

@PingasPete @zoomervt If that’s true then you steal art every single time you look at it online. Because you’ve made a copy.

Thankfully for all of us, looking at something, making a copy, and learning from it doesn’t rob the owner of their property. Therefore it is not theft.

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

@zoomervt The answer to “what if I can’t afford an artist” used to be “go do it yourself” and now that you have tools that make “go to it yourself” easier to achieve, they’re all like “but no not like that”

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

Anti-AI people: you didn’t create that

Me: Okay who got the AI to pronounce words like “on” and “dawn” like it was raised in the Philly area 🤔

@AshConnell We're a staging server that only a few people in leadership use to demo features internally. It is often forgotten about until someone lets the devs know it's behind.

@ochodrinko85 @asyouplotted Clearly I'd be there for the gondola, you uncultured pig

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

For those who missed the introduction of the "Deep Alloy" genre, here's the ephemeral set originally performed at The Edge in @decentraland

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

Someone brought up axolotls in @decentraland’s Genesis Plaza tonight

I have no regrets owning one it’s like an aquarium critter with a cat personality

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

Kinda wild where you can take @decentraland these days. Wonder how many people have visited Genesis Plaza from 37,000 ft / 11,500 m in the air

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

Always

Does anyone else with ADHD feel like they’re always just slightly on the outside of every friend group, no matter how hard they try?
You’re there. You laugh at the jokes. You show up. But you still feel… one step removed. Like you’re watching the connection happen instead of fully being in it.
Not looking for pity. Just wondering if anyone else has always felt like they’re present but not really ”there”.

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

@Bliss_Hughes @djpain1 That’s what people say when they lack an actual argument, so thanks for confirming I’m right

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

I have found that the inability or unwillingness to see below the surface and understand an artist’s intent can manifest in the form of bitter resentment

[𒐪 @SHL0MS]

those of you questioning my status as an artist merely serve to legitimize it to the people whose opinions i actually care about

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

@Bliss_Hughes @djpain1 Now we have musicians making the same argument that the greedy record labels made 25 years ago - “copying music is stealing!”

Even though courts have already ruled AI training as fair use

[Unknower @UnknowerMusic]

@Bliss_Hughes @djpain1 I’m old enough to remember people boycotting Metallica for their role in bringing an end to Napster, and System Of A Down literally releasing a record called “steal this album” because nearly everyone could see how making a copy of something was not the same as stealing it.
