This is tremendous! Could it be that AI slop and mediocracy are a forcing mechanism to search for what is beautiful again? Do you follow the beauty criticism writer, Jessica DeFino? This quote of hers is very aligned:
"There is a type of beauty beyond the industry of beauty.
Beauty — like freedom, like truth, like love! — is an innate human longing. We crave it. We need it in our lives. We’re filled with the urge to express it. The problem is, the kind of “beauty” that beauty culture promotes is a flattened, hollow approximation of the beauty the human spirit craves."
thanks so much for this post and bringing BEAUTY into the conversation. I just finished reading Roger Scruton's book "la belleza" (beauty) and I totally recommend it to nurture this conversation that is just starting.... Beauty somehow is bringing together art, wellness, spirituality, leadership and businesses. a new era of creating.

Thank you! No, not following her, but will look up her work. And yes, exactly!

The World Cup is much less beautiful if you consider the environmental impact and 'sportswashing'.
