The collaborative music video from Swedish rapper Yung Lean and GENER8ION transcends the boundaries of a regular music video — it’s an extraordinary visual feast. The choreography was created by the legendary French choreographer Damien Jalet.
Locking the camera to the stars instead of the horizon changes everything.
It’s actually kind of terrifying to see the Earth spinning beneath us like this. 🌍🌌
AI can now generate images more beautiful than anything most humans could make. Sam Altman just explained why nobody cares.
Altman: “The value that people put on that effectively rounds to zero.”
Not less valuable. Zero.
A flawlessly generated AI image, technically superior to almost anything a human could produce, valued at nothing.
When visual perfection becomes instantly available to everyone, it stops being scarce.
And when it stops being scarce, it stops being valuable.
The scarcity that gave art its worth was never the beauty. It was the human who made it.
Altman: “Without the person effectively signing their name to it, we seem to not care.”
That sentence is the entire shift compressed into one line.
We don’t consume art. We consume the person behind it.
The struggle. The intention. The specific human consciousness that decided this particular thing should exist.
AI can replicate the output. It cannot replicate the origin.
Altman points out that if an artist uses AI as a tool but still has something they were trying to express, the work retains its value.
The human intention is the product. The image is just how it arrives.
Remove the person and the beauty becomes noise.
This is what nobody building AI art tools fully absorbed. They optimized for the output and assumed the output was what people valued.
It wasn’t. It was never the pixels.
It was always the person.
AI isn’t going to replace human artists. It’s going to do something more disorienting.
It’s going to make technical skill irrelevant and force the entire market to pay for something that was always there but never had to be named.
Presence. Intention. Proof that a human consciousness cared enough to make this particular thing.
Abundance makes perfection free.
Meaning becomes the only scarcity worth paying for.
And meaning can’t be automated. Because meaning requires a consciousness choosing to say something specific to someone specific for reasons that matter.
The artists who survive won’t be the most technically gifted.
They’ll be the most undeniably human.
AI gave the world infinite art and proved that what we actually want is irreplaceable.
