Because the whole world before you is like a speck that tips the scales,

and like a drop of morning dew that falls on the ground.

But you are merciful to all, for you can do all things,

and you overlook people’s sins, so that they may repent.

For you love all things that exist,

and detest none of the things that you have made,

for you would not have made anything if you had hated it.

How would anything have endured if you had not willed it?

Or how would anything not called forth by you have been preserved?

You spare all things, for they are yours, O Lord, you who love the living.

For your immortal spirit is in all things.

The Book of Wisdom 11:22-12:1.  50 BC.

Well, you were well ahead of the curve on this one, Professor.
Who would've thought that AI-generated art would've gotten this effective, this popular, this fast? It's absolutely crazy.
What's the humanist response to all of this, given that art was considered something unique to humanity?
Thank you so very much for these pieces; they are beautiful and I'm humbled to know that you had me in your thoughts.

Semper fortis!
