One friend just called the Bob Dylan's painting from my last letter (https://aillia.substack.com/p/roads-less-traveled) "awful AI slop, not even a good one."
Another said the whole piece "feels AI-generated".
People’s attitudes are messed up in an interesting way: they can’t differentiate anymore: everything is suspect as AI slop.
Thanks to this, we’ve entered Hesse’s Age of the Feuilleton from The Glass Bead Game:
"The most important consequence of this new attitude… was that men largely ceased to produce works of art. Moreover, intellectuals gradually withdrew from the bustle of the world."
I can’t prove I’m not a bot to X or anyone anymore.
The only "proof" left seems to be historical records, ID, or biometrics... and that’s not happening in my case.
I’m exhausted from proving my humanness, not just to Twitter, but to friends too.
Taking a break from being online.
At least Bob Dylan never had to prove he isn’t a bot to anyone.
