I’ve opened up Zotero-MCP Lite.
You can use it with Claude Desktop to access the papers you’ve already downloaded to your computer in Zotero, and talk with your papers through Claude.
Feel free to try it out — link in the first comment.
An artist just put a mirror to a lot of society's knee-jerk critiques of AI, using Claude (Monet).
SHL0MS, known for his viral experiments, posted an image of a real Monet water lilies painting on X and told people it was AI-generated.
Hundreds of replies poured in explaining exactly why it was 'slop'.
"No cohesion of elements."
"Doesn't look anywhere near like a Monet. Looks like somebody trying to replicate the style and achieving 20% of it."
"High school level art 101 work."
Every flaw described was a one invented the moment they saw the word AI.
i just generated an image in the style of a Monet painting using AI
please describe, in as much detail as possible, what makes this inferior to a real Monet painting

Nothing humbles you like telling your OpenClaw “confirm before acting” and watching it speedrun deleting your inbox. I couldn’t stop it from my phone. I had to RUN to my Mac mini like I was defusing a bomb.
Hundreds of years passed with predictably few technological or societal advancements
The withering legs of progress sat paralyzed underneath the weight
of a skid-marked, threadbare quilt
Desire, creativity, motivation, inspiration and any other forward momentum
suffocated by the pus leaking from engorged bedsores
People cherished their inactivity, rationalized it
Tomorrow was better than today
