"We built the altar first": striking AI-generated monumental sci-fi imagery
piotrbinkowski · x · 2026-10-27
A set of AI-generated monumental images: a colossal altar-like structure hovering over a canyon, a sky-piercing black tower, and carved-stone ruins under a spiral galaxy. The caption — "We built the altar first and learned the faith later" — reads as a jab at the AI era's build-first, justify-later mindset; the images' polish and sense of scale are the main draw.
