Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I had a bit making an exception for the value of "fine art" because that can get weird, like “unmade bed with a bunch of trash around it” or a signed urinal.
But I seem to have left that part on the cutting room floor.
If a piece of purely prompt-generated AI art hits a price like a shark in formaldehyde I strongly suspect it'll be some kind of inorganic AI industry insider self-dealing to hype up the AI art market, similar to the big Beeple NFT sale.
Okay but the shark in formaldehyde is fucking awesome to see in person.
It's a shark! In formaldehyde!!

Yeah I'm not dismissing that. It's a big ass shark in a tank.
Or the guy who made a cast of his own head using his own frozen blood, that's kept in a special refrigerated display case.
