Eric is back with Season Two! My, how the world has changed in just a few months. The tension in the air is palpable, and some things that seemed only a slight possibility earlier this year are now probabilities, even actualities. Artificial intelligence has proven very effective at managing formerly human tasks in manufacturing, but is quickly taking over the creative world as well. AI-generated art, animation, music, scripts, and more is becoming good enough for commercial use, and only getting better.
So where does that leave us artists? While we should be concerned about these developments, there is something about art which transcends the product. Making art is a joyful act, worthwhile in itself. It's fun and pleasurable. So says C.S. Lewis in his autobiograph Suprised by Joy.
