- OpenAI engineer Will DePue argues the 'heretical' view that the best art will eventually be AI-created is almost certainly true in the limit — blind expert Turing tests for literature, music, and visual arts will saturate.
- In the quoted tweet he adds that humans will still settle into human communities with human art and relationships, even if AI makes more compelling experiences in every way: 'do not be attached to your capabilities. they will soon disappear.'
