Be a priority, not an option

"Today’s struggle isn’t a technological one, it’s psychosocial. The technology of sovereignty is only part of the battle, particularly if that technology is further down the tech tree than non invasive wireheading." - @realGeorgeHotz (Source)
Especially when dealing with shinny new technological tools/toys, today's systems designers tend to neglect doing a thorough and honest Cost-Benefit Analysis. The "Anything that can be done, must be done" philosophy is highly wasteful and destructive.

A generative shift in perspective
Possibly the best thing about "AI Art" it that is accustoms an entire generation to the idea that "reality" itself is an infinite latent space out which multimodal experiences are generated in spacetime, based on the intention of the animal observer.

"The universe is simply the spatial/temporal logic of the animal observer" - Robert Lanza

Bigger, stronger, faster, meaner, more, more, more
There is no "escaping reality" within infinity, only relaxing deeper into yourself in the eternal now.
