I find it a bit amusing that this is funded through andOtherStuff, where one of the Five Pillars is "AI"
Also less amusing is the fact that Nostr is created by a Brazilian with fascist sympathies:

The girl who infamously wore a pink wig and shouted racial epithets holding a "white lives matter" banner outside the DNC was trying to stir up trouble again, but to no success.

Would have liked to inform @dlknowles.bsky.social about Holstein's August pool schedule, but he quickly blocked me for correcting him.
No other schedule? Navigating the (admittedly a bit confusing) Chicago Parks District website is apparently too hard for this correspondent of @economist.com.

Not at all true: the last Muslim country where women couldn't vote was Saudi Arabia which is allied with Israel/US.
Pakistan had a woman as President before the US. The current US VP was funded by Peter Thiel who dislikes women's suffrage.
Israel is also officially a Jewish Ethnostate as of 2018.

It's the same problem as the fake horse made of bread that fooled gullible Facebook users. Yes, it's the texture of bread applied to the shape of a horse, but how is it baked? Nothing semantic or meaningful comes from 99% of AI art, as your cited Duchamp's struggle between intention and (1/2)

Seems like Andrea bad-jacketed/slandered you as an "authoritarian" for questioning her. Only anarcho-capitalism is the correct anarchism here.

Reminds me of how I found a "Hatikvah Sticker Collective" (Hatikvah being the Israeli national anthem), looked up the author, and noticed he uses the same Captain America movie poster font for most of his work. Graphic design is my passion.

First is accurate. A Jewish ethnostate is the aim of the political Zionism of Theodore Herzl (who infamously loved antisemites who were in charge of pogroms of Jews) not a Jewish nation (Bundism sought Jewish nationhood without an ethnostate). Third, I mean troll in the fishing/internet sense.
!["The anti-Semites will be our most loyal friends,' Herzl declared, 'the anti-Semitic countries will be our allies'. In an important 1983 study, Zionism in the Age of the Dictators, Lenni Brenner, an independent Trotskyist, based in New York, showed in relentless detail what this moral and political inversion meant from the 1890s through to World War II. In 1903, for example, Herzl believed he had found an anti-Semitic 'friend' in Vyacheslav von Plehve, the Czarist minister of the interior who, a few months earlier, had helped organise a pogrom in Kishenev that had killed forty-five people and injured hundreds more. Plehve once told a Jewish delegation: '[W]e shall make your position in Russia so unbearable that the Jews will leave the country to the last man. Now, after meeting with the great man, Herzl triumphantly announced that Plehve had agreed to back the creation of a homeland for those Jews in fifteen years, if during that time 'Jewish revolutionaries cease their struggle against the Russian government' - in fifteen years, of course, the Czarist government would no longer exist. A few months later, the well-known author Max Nordau, a recent convert to Zionism, told Eduard Drumont's rabidly anti-Semitic newspaper La Libre Parole that Zionism was 'not a question of religion, but exclusively of race, and there is no one with whom I am in greater agreement on this point than M. Drumont'.

To top it off, he was unwavering in providing military aid to a country committing genocide and wars of aggression, lead by an ally of Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, even as there was undisputable proof those bombs were killing children and US JDAMs were used to target journalists and doctors.
