I draw things, then I paint those things

[Wyoming Iliad @wyomingiliad]

Train AI on all music known to humanity before Beethoven. Then ask it to create Beethoven's symphonies, or just the third or ninth. Train AI on all literature known to humanity before Shakespeare, and then ask it to write Hamlet. Train AI on all science known to humanity before relativity, and then ask it to create special and general relativity. Train AI on all math and physics known before Newton, and then ask it to write Principia. Train AI on all philosophy known before Plato, and then ask it to write Socrates' Apology. Train AI on all music known before the Beatles, and then ask it to create the White Album. Train AI on all epic poetry known to humanity before Homer, and then ask it to write Homer's Iliad and Odyssey. So it is that AI is most often championed by those who have little appreciation for or understanding of Beethoven, Shakespeare, Einstein, Newton, Plato, The Beatles, Homer, music, literature, science, math, philosophy, and poetry. Perhaps they even detest these exalted entities on some level.

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do...

[Tom and Lorenzo @tomandlorenzo]

This has been a really great week to remind yourself that when people talk about the four-dimensional chess of authoritarians, billionaires and autocrats, it's wish-based, not evidenced-based.

[Bayt Al Fann @BaytAlFann]

Most mosques feature a dome, called qubba in Arabic. The dome is a symbolic representation of the vault of heaven. The interior decoration of a dome often emphasises this symbolism using patterns to awe & inspire

In North Africa, the door is a symbol.

For some, the door reflects the luck & happiness the inhabitants of the building may have. For others, there exist doors of notable beauty which inspire generations.
