I feel one of the beauties of maturation is movement up this ladder of aesthetics, ethics and morality. McLuhan oft remarked that only the artist (in this mature sense) is able to know where he is and society must rely on the artist to be its guide.

Referring to the brain in the third person is a janky move of exposition. An undead heart is a sign of intellectual zombification.

AI is mechanized thought. Can art be created mechanically?
