I just heard a quote about the commercialization and cultural control that will likely be a consequence of AI:
"Reality becomes a premium feature."
Brilliant description and, also, terrifying.

I was watching a Rick Beato you tube video, and happened to pause it with this in the frame.
Loved the light and thought it was reminiscent of Vermeer.
