It was really great speaking with Sara and to hear about her thoughts regarding the issue of human vs artificial art, especially when she's an artist herself. The weary trend towards transhumanism should be of concern to people.. If people become desensitized to raw human expression where time, effort and imagination behind it all is taken for granted next to the countless easily generated Ai imagery that can be whipped up after a few key word strokes from any computer, tablet or smart phone. Not just art, but language, music, movies.. What kind of world would that create and how lazy would it render humans.. would certain functions atrophy after a while in the same way we lost the ability to remember simple phone numbers we used to due to the convenience of smart phones, or mathematics in the face of calculators?
Sara cross is a woman of many talents and she's put them on display and is available to commission for services such as personalized art and clothing.. She has quite a few interesting links to her works and videos right here:

"Left: ‘Tree of Fresh Light’, real-life encaustic wax art on card, by Natalie Dekel, 2018. I have used this work, together with text from my poetry, to generate the AI image, ‘Eve, Mother of All Living’, 2023 (Right). Photoshop was also used to superimpose the dove (cloned from a second version of this AI art)."
