Amelia and I got to visit the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Brussels--specifically the old masters collection--and it was fascinating. Didn't have nearly enough time to see everything, only a couple of rooms before closing time. They don't prepare you for how large these paintings are in real life.

Welcome to Mastodon, @HennaVirkkunen !
As Executive Vice-President for Tech Sovereignty, Security and Democracy, you have highlighted how the Fediverse plays an important part in protecting the EU's #DigitalSovereignty and supporting European alternatives.
The deliberate conscious effort that we humans require to do anything, like make art or write an academic paper, has been belittled and glossed over.
Instead results are glamorously prized as the product of success, and the amount of effort that it took to get there is hidden away in shame.
AI is the obscene extreme to that mentality: not more thinking, effort, work, anything— get the result now. While it was that exact effort that made us human in the first place.
