I'm already bored by AI art. At first you think, who thought of that? When? What techniques did they use? How long did it take to master them? Then you realize it's just a bunch of matrices in a GPU. On top of that it doesn't

If you don't specify a version, the default will be the 2022-11-28 version, so naturally I wonder what happens in ~two years when that version gets retired.
