The best way to fight AI? MAKE STUFF! Use your mind and your hands and your voice to make things. Weird and beautiful things. Human things. Make stuff you know how to make. Learn to make things you don't know how to make. Fill the world with beauty and oddness. Because that is what being a human is.

Re-reading Piranesi. I really love this fucking book. More than any book I have experienced, it expresses the concept of an environment as a primary character. I have had dreams of its endless, inscrutable, austere halls of statues and all-encompassing solitude. I would live there.
