  The Cool Continuum is a perspective shift, a new lens by which to study art and the artists that make it. Its strength lies in its subjectivity, which means you are invited to contribute your perspective to shape our collective understanding of what it takes to make art.
in other words: i'm spinning the subjectivity and arbitrariness of this crap as a strength not a weakness. this whole article co-written by chatgpt. thanks but no thanks

Hi, author and creator here. The Cool Continuum shouldn't be the final word on whether, for example, Billy Idol is a Rebel or an Innovator. But I think ChatGPT gives the most unbiased perspective. I also leaned on ChatGPT to analyze artists like Beyoncé, who I knew nothing about (but I was curious where she fit on the continuum).

ChatGPT provides the "even hand" to be able to evaluate fairly, and more broadly, in less time. I think it's an ideal project for AI assistance.

But they assigned numbers to the levels, so it isn't entirely subjective.
