@BeautifulMutantStudio@mastodon.art Original source: Ted Chiang's 2024 New Yorker piece "Why A.I. Isn’t Going to Make Art" (archive). Worth reading in full. I enjoy the quip "Using ChatGPT to complete assignments is like bringing a forklift into the weight room". Also see his more recent June 2026 Atlantic piece "No, Artificial Intelligence Is Not Conscious".
