All this…and the point is…?
this is why I love working at @VanityFair
yesterday, I saw half our staff clustered around our fashion correspondent's desk poring over this photo. As José puts it, "The image has several discrepancies. The style and make of the Chanel Flap bag is inconsistent with others the brand has sold, and the Valentino shoes in question appear askew in proportion; their straps have several punched holes that the authentic Valentino style does not."
AI image detectors confirmed that yes, Olivia Reingold used an AI-generated image to make her point, without a drop of disclosure. Wild!!!!

This sounds so good
Exciting news: my dear friend @hamrahrama and I are teaming up to teach a two-day writing class in Brooklyn (and on zoom) and it’s kind of a bargain!
Everyone else is reading it...are you?

Hate to give them this kind of credit but this is the original color of a 19th century French chore
a pathetic attempt by the most morally bankrupt people living in san francisco to be liked by fashion's cool kids. i can almost SMELL the desperation to be seen as tasteful and fashionable. also, this color is atrocious on a chore coat

And you know who said this recently? Aaron Sorkin.
The idea that if people like AI-generated "art" until they find out AI was involved, they're being hypocrites only makes sense if you forget that a crucial aspect of aesthetic judgment is appreciation for the labor that went into making the WORK of art. (Cf. Ngai's "The Gimick.")
