This one was one of my favorite "Ports" newsletters. I thought about how AI has been negatively affecting us as a society. I didn't know about the Drake and The Weeknd song that was AI generated! I recently finished the book "The Creative Act" by Rick Rubin and he echoed similar themes about beauty. I thought about how we perceive art and beauty as well as what is considered beautiful. Some of the points he mentions:

1. The process of creating art is not a one size fits all method.

2. Each artist has their own process thats allows for individuality and uniqueness.

3. Breaking the sameness and self-awareness are essential components in the creative process.

I agree that the world is becoming flat and AI seems to be exponentially flattening it.
