I'm not sure I've ever yearned more for the internet to explode than after reading the insane responses to this on Instagram and Facebook from what appears to be a whole new breed of human who no longer cares about art, love, truth or having any form of inner life.
Give it a year, I reckon, and one of THE major societal divides, nudging countless friendships to an end, is going to be the one between people who post awful AI shit on the internet and people who don't because they realise it's a dishonest, ecologically ruinous evil fast-tracking us to apocalypse.
