Thank you for your comment, Ludwig. My interest leans more towards probabilities than certainties in AI discussions. You're right to point out AI's cultural impacts, which are already unfolding. Let's leave future judgments to the future. Culture is a dynamic entity, always evolving, sometimes fading into oblivion without a chance of regaining its past splendor. History has seen empires rise and fall; we might be witnessing the era of the last global empire, with no escape routes left, and Mars as an inhospitable haven. Your Wagnerian kitsch reference is brilliantly astute!
