Note

i'm reminded of this film anytime i look at a piece of art/music/writing and ruminate on what prompt would generate that art.

the line between creativity and automation are likely much blurier than intuition would suggest and defining what is AI art and who is a robot are likely fruitless endeavors in the long run.
