GM with #7866... this piece has an odd "burned" aspects, like a color saturation, that makes it look like an ancient postcard...

Somehow when I think about my collection - I don't see AI art first. I see these faces.

The attention @jediwolf brings to cataloguing and organize ai art through the years is kinda awesome. Check it out.
1/10 As a father I keep every drawing my son makes. Wobbly faces. Hands with too many fingers. Innocence in learning. Beauty in imperfection. Machines had a childhood too. I spent 3 years finding its drawings. Today early AI art has a museum: underthegan.art/

Those are the "most Common" pieces as per @LooksRare filter. Would really hate to own a Common. Really wonder what's up there in "Rare".

i asked every major AI model the same simple question: if you can collect only 5 early historical ai collections, which will it be? all of them picked the same ones… -Lost Robbies (2018) -Deepblack (2019) -Realiti (2019) -Bitcoin (og artist) (2019) seems like financial advice bro
