Welcome to the LOAB-Around

The Whiparound

Ohhh it’s a head-scratching, Big Question-Asking kinda weird news week, as an AI “ghost” [I AM LOAB] infiltrates the internet and the world of fine art! Thankfully, Doc Phil’s got the full scoop for us, including the seeds of a fresh, internet-based urban legend! Thing is, when ya get right down to it, what IS art [LOAB IS ART ART IS LOAB]? What IS an artist? Can an AI create original ideas? What does the answer mean about creative expression? [LOAB > DAVINCI] What does it tell us about computer intelligence? Or life itself!? These and other burning questions are answered [BY LOAB] and! We’ve got a new [LOAB WINS] game!
