Went to a festival recently, and nearly all pictures of food were AI, but what got me were the artists with AI signs.
Artists use technology?! Surely you must be mistaken! I thought they were all cave dwellers, frightened by electricity and the ghosts that must be haunting all machines.
Oh, wait, no. That's the Amish. We're both thinking of the Amish.
The Amish use plenty of modern tech (vaccines and fridges for insulin are great examples). They merely reject modern tech when they perceive it divides their community. They aren’t afraid of technology, they resent technology that isolates people. We could learn from this.
