«Today, the artistic prompt typed into a chatbot is itself becoming a form of expression. The difference between a clunky query and an inspired one is as wide as the gap between a finger painting and a Van Gogh.»

No, it's not. At best, prompting is to artistic practice what googling is to research

Die ästhetische Faszination der ZEIT für alles Faschistische, was nur ein klein bisschen aufregend edgy erscheint, bleibt ungebrochen, auch wenn nur die hundertste launige Reportage über die Dimes-Square-Nazis dabei rausspringt, dieses Mal mit schicker exklusiver Fotostrecke «50 Shades of Normcore»
