A blue canvas with a white line sold for $44M. Pretty sure an AI could generate that.

Sure great. Everyone loves to punch high dollar contemporary abstract art sales. It’s a pretty well worn and boring critique of a narrow corner of contemporary art.

My point still holds that anything vaguely representational looks kind of bad and has an uncanny quality. It’s clear that the trick is a kind of collage in most of the images I’ve seen.
