"Some vegetarians say they won’t eat anything with a face — maybe I’ll say I won’t read anything that didn’t have a childhood."

Love this so much! I was having a discussion with a friend about AI last night--we were talking about what it means to be creative and whether AI can be creative ... we were kind of all over the place, as you might imagine. I wish I had read this quote from your 5/11 blogpost beforehand, because it gets at something I tried (and am still trying) to articulate about the role of memory and idiosyncratic experience plays in creative expression. This gets me closer.

(Also wondering if I'm interested in art created ("created") by anything that doesn't have a body.)
