When I was a kid I would see stuff about AI generation, like old CaryKH videos and tweets from the person who wrote "AI generated Batman" (which in retrospect wasn't AI but I was insistent it was lol) and thought it was so cool and interesting. This manifesto really touches on that possibility space that enthralled child me, but I wasn't able to understand (partially due to not having public image models back then).
Don't know if I will actually use AI in my projects, as I've come to find I love creating digital collages myself, and despise prompting on a visceral level (in large part due to how pushed on everyone The Sludge is), but I would be lying if I said that AI mush wasn't an inspiration for the surrealness I try and go for, and it seems like a fun space to explore. :>
