The Caveman and the machine

 The Caveman and the Machine


Under an AI-generated image captioned “This is art,” someone commented:


> “If the internet goes down, how are you going to create art, Mr. Artist?”




Another user replied:


> “We also have offline models. If your graphics card is strong enough, that’s the answer.”




The first commenter responded again:


> “They’re too lazy to do that.”




This is a perfect example of a common fallacy — when an argument collapses under a single fact, the speaker quickly shifts to something irrelevant. The supposed laziness of users has nothing to do with whether AI can function without the internet.


If your core argument against AI-generated art is that it depends on infrastructure, then you must also address what happens when that dependence is removed. Otherwise, you haven’t disproven that AI art is art — you’ve only exposed a weakness in your reasoning.


It’s ironic, really: people criticizing artificial intelligence often display more logical flaws than the software they condemn.


This transitional era we’re living through — where AI evolves daily — is the best opportunity to understand ourselves. Every incremental improvement in AI also highlights the improvements that never happened in humans.


The outrage over shifting definitions of art, the resentment toward faster processing, the anxiety about rising productivity, the fear of wars where humans might not be the protagonists anymore — all these reactions reveal something ancient in us.


They expose the caveman dimension of humanity that still resists evolution, clutching its fading sense of privilege while standing in front of a mirror made by its own creation.



With all this said, I still firmly believe that the only art form that should never EVER be manipulated by AI is music, and the only thing that needs to be brought into AI is medical science.

The Soviet Union

 Thirty-two years ago, on days like these, the Soviet Union officially announced its collapse. The result of this collapse was the creation of fifteen independent countries. Political systems collapse in various ways. The way the Soviet Union collapsed was from within, although external factors had an indirect effect. I can list the reasons for the collapse: 1: Directing most of the country's budget and resources towards military productions and space programs and neglecting to provide the essential needs of the people such as food, housing, etc. 2: Spending huge budgets to continue the war in Afghanistan and maintaining military bases in satellite countries and economic grants to communist countries in Europe and other parts of the world, which in total led to severe economic weakness of the country and the growth of dissatisfaction among the people. 3: The overthrow of a corrupt class of politicians who did not think about anything else except maintaining their positions and excl...

WHAT IF..

  Imagine this. You're standing in the middle of a city square. The same one you walk through every morning, coffee in hand, headphones in, trying to ignore the world before your third caffeine hit. But today, it’s different. The air is dense. Your phone has no signal. Time doesn’t feel like it’s moving. And then like a switch flipped in the fabric of reality they begin to appear. All of them. Every human who has ever lived. From the earliest humans who once scraped tools from stone, to people who wore togas in Rome, to those who died in wars, plagues, revolutions everyone is here. And oddly, they’re all wearing the same uniform simple, clean, neutral clothing, a reset of identity and hierarchy. No designer brands. No medals. No blood. Just humans. Just us. Suddenly, the streets are full. No, overflowing. Billions. We had 8 billion alive yesterday. But the total number of humans who’ve ever lived? Estimates say around 117 billion. Now imagine 109 billion people added to Earth toda...

Media Belief and the quiet Engineering of Reality

 Dear Fox News, STOP USING MEK (NCRI) AS A SOURCE. First of all—can’t you hear them? The people are not calling for a cult, a faction, or recycled extremism. They are calling for the King 👑 Reza Pahlavi. Second—and this matters deeply— This article is written by the same person the New York Post recently promoted, and it relies on quotations from MEK. For clarification: MEK is not an opposition movement. It is the other side of the same coin as the Islamic Republic. They posture as anti-regime only because they seek power for themselves— with the same ideology, the same authoritarian instincts, and the same contempt for the Iranian people. Do not be fooled by cosmetic opposition. Do not launder extremism through Western media. And please—stop promoting MEK. Now, let’s talk about the real danger. Here’s the truth: Not missiles. Not borders. Media illiteracy. Media is not neutral. Words are not innocent. Sentence structure, tone, and framing decide how you feel before you even reali...
