Yes, the planet got destroyed. But for a beautiful moment in time, we created some absurd token burning architectures.

They don't need to care, they just need to learn to tune it out, after which it becomes ineffective. Characteristic of this style of AI art is pseudo-detail: the artwork looks busy…
