By now you well know my take on AI and photography, writing and music. It's like oil and water - they don't belong together! But please don't take my word for it. The great Australian musician, Nick Cave, was so incensed by AI he wrote one of the finest reflections on the subject in defense of the human creative spirit.

 

When this letter is read by the incomparable Stephen Fry, then it really is something special. Take a few minutes to watch this beautiful reading:

"Chat GPT is fast-tracking the commodification of the human spirit by mechanizing the imagination."

 

"This impulse, this creative dance, that is now being so cynically undermined, must be defended at all costs. And just as we would fight any existential evil, we should fight it tooth and nail, for we are fighting for the very soul of the world.

Love Nick."
