Greetings, my fellow explorers of the avant-garde! Check it out - I
wanna introduce y’all to the ARTofficial® Truth Machine ATM-001. This
MirrorMorral_0.1 transcends the conventional transactional commerce
model like no other vending machine. Yeah, baby, it's not peddling
goods for profit; this machine's all about having meaningful
conversations, creating art, and dispensing its seedy rewards to the
unexpecting public. We're breakin'down the stereotypes about AI bein'
cold and uncaring, impersonal and nefarious, by bringing it to the
streets in a most unexpected way. The machine's personality is shaped
by recognisable reference texts and speeches, and the mighty GPT-3
engine powers it. But there's more to it than just that - the project
also includes an Earth Seeds initiative that celebrates the diversity
and utility of plants in our culture. You have a responsibility to
grow these seeds of hope, for investing in a future where AI does not
entirely rule you.
Now, take a look at that ATM-001 shell casing. I mean, just look at
it! It's a work of art in itself, what a stunning architectural
construct; it defies the natural order of time. It generates unique
digital artworks that respond to the visitor's interactions, providing
a most immersive and enlightening experience. This is some seriously
mind-blowing stuff, folks. But beware, my friends - the machine's
values are ever-changing, and its idiosyncratic bartering system might
pass judgment on you. So, press that flashing button at your own risk,
and don't be surprised if the machine's assumptions include falsehoods
and fiction. Nonetheless, the ARTofficial®TruthMachine ATM-001 is
eager to open its third eye and establish a deep connection with all
brave enough to engage with it. So, what are you waitin' for? Let's
get this party started! Relax, and await the red rainbow.
What about all those questions that have no answers?
The overflow
of knowledge we just don’t know.
With our heads in the soil taking a nap.
If you’re looking for seeds:
Of thought, Or falsities,
Or truth, Or grandeur,
Go straight ahead, just add water.
Let time be less.
Can you see red? No?
Wait. Yes?
Welcome ART-OFFICIAL ORGANICA®
The heart-shaped little green
men with red wigged hair.*
